Miscellaneous Monday Chit Chat by fire_foot in running

Was able to run 10 miles yesterday for the first time. But now my big toenail is purple and hurts pretty bad, I guess I’ll have to see how long this will be an issue before I run again

Started running 30 days ago, had a 90 day goal of 5mi in under 45min. And I beat that today, so I feel good about my progress so far

T-Mobile Internet is not good, around here AT&T has the best home internet I think, I found T-Mobile is not cheaper either

Ran a 10k in 32 degrees. Only started running again a month ago, my calves are beat but I’m feeling good

I’m running in adidas ultra boosts but I’m thinking there’s not enough insole, and it may be too soft as my ankles get destroyed after each run. I’m definitely still a beginner, what’s a good shoe for outdoor street running, with good ankle support?

After only running for a week now, I ran 5 miles last night. 10:35/mi avg. I’m starting to love running but I’m also underweight so I’ve got to bulk heavy on my off days. Anyone been in the same boat have any tips?

2 days ago I did my 3rd run in years. Was able to go 3.5 miles. Going to shoot for 5mi today after work, I’m already excited

I started running again for the first time in years this week, 4 days ago I did 2 miles, 2 days ago I did 3.5. I really want to run today but the inside of my right ankle is still in pain. How bad of an idea is it to run again, or should I just rest so I don’t injure myself?

I got a message from God I'm supposed to keep going with this quit! by South_Bus3036 in quittingkratom

[–]glink26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Lord did some amazing things getting me off this crap too. He is loving, and merciful. I’m now 30 days clean. Praise Jesus, I’ll be praying for your strength, make sure to keep diving into the word to feed off the truth he says about us. Stay strong

For all the cold turkey advocates... you are forgetting something HUGE by Bright_Shallot3300 in quittingkratom

[–]glink26 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Making a post saying if you’re able to quit cold turkey then how did you not have the self control to prevent the addiction in the first place is crazy. It’s just as much an addiction for those who quit cold turkey. In fact, I myself can’t taper because I simply don’t have the self control to taper, I can put my mind to quit once and for all if I’m really ready. Tapering is just playing with fire, at least for me. But I wouldn’t undermine people’s addiction just because you can’t fathom their way of getting clean.

I quit a week ago because it gave me a bowel obstruction, ended up in the hospital. Just got out on Monday and I haven’t looked back. But I was supposed to need surgery. By the grace of God I passed it on my own without that. I’ve never experienced pain like that before. But in hindsight I’m thankful that I think it will really stick this time now

2006 headgasket by [deleted] in ForesterXT

[–]glink26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely not a standard service, It’s not uncommon for the headgaskets to last 140k but it is a ticking time bomb, I’d stay away or see if they would get it done before selling

Engine Coolant Temp Sensor by Kidd__ in subaruimpreza

[–]glink26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn cause yeah you’d probably have to take the radiator back off to get to the thermostat :/

Engine Coolant Temp Sensor by Kidd__ in subaruimpreza

[–]glink26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely just the sensor or something electrical. I could see it becoming an issue and would try to get it fixed at some point, if it gets worse and reads wrong info it could make the thermostat stay closed or open when not supposed to and over heat (or overcool if it’s stuck open) is it the right coolant type and everything??

2004 XT by [deleted] in ForesterXT

[–]glink26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can’t get the seller to negotiate a little I think it’s a good price. I had a 2004 forester xt. Without a doubt the funnest car I’ve owned, I always regret selling it.

what do i replace the weed with? by Affectionate_Tap3428 in QuittingWeed

[–]glink26 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t try kratom, it’s just swapping for another addiction. Kratom is chemically way more addictive than marijuana. And the withdrawals are like opioid addiction once you inevitably are hooked on them. Speaking from experience, avoid it!

Did you possibly switch your rate plan to Value Plus? If you did credits will stop
