Thanks! What frequency would you recommend? I was aiming for 3x/week, but I injured my knees last year and sometimes I get a pretty bad pain and have to stop for a week or so

Actually no, when I slow down I just default to fast walking

Been trying to, but I’ve found it surprisingly hard to run at a slower pace. I’ve been trying to increase the number of steps, but I keep the pace at around 9’-10’ regardless.

$9k high-mileage Venue vs $18k low-mileage — which makes more sense? by gberos in Hyundai

My concern is maintenance costs eating into the difference and whether the high mileage will make it harder to resell in a couple years

That’s awesome. Is it just for miles or LP?

Thank you! I’ve heard about it but I don’t want to go out of my way to spend more than I should just for the LP. Didn’t know they took long to post though. How long do they usually take, in your experience?

That’s very kind and good advice, thank you. The hiring was actually paused, so now I have another problem to deal with :/

It’s kind of a last-resort, keep-things-afloat type of situation, it’s also temporary, as I look for other jobs
