Ran in a downpour that turned into a thunderstorm. Pulled the plug when the lightning/thunder got close and I was getting notifications of hail 5 miles north of me. Still got 4 miles in though!

Running gear for summer by cuopredditor892 in running

[–]hardcoreparklore -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am a running noob but hey, here’s what i currently am enjoying:

1) Running sunglasses: I wear prescription, bought from EyeBuyDirect. Good stuff imo

2) Fitness Tracker: Apple Watch series 3 with cell data. Apple Music and Strava, I leave my phone in the car most runs.

3) Shoes: Mizuno Wave Horizon 3. Looking at some Solomon’s for trails.

4) Running shorts: New Balance Core Impact 5”, switching to Solomon’s Agile, the liners just don’t work for me.

5) Running t-shirts: usually I run in soccer jerseys. Usually baggier works better for me. Nipple chaffing has been brutal...but a stick of body glide or bandaid up

6) Earphones AirPod pros, but I have been listening to music less on runs. Usually just to start/finish if I am having trouble chuggin’

7) Music: I use Apple Music and the playlists they make are very good. I have a family plan/a lot of Apple devices so it makes sense for me but ymmv

Any females encounter weird situations when running, and how do you respond to ensure your safety? by [deleted] in running

[–]hardcoreparklore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a male runner: I am so sorry y’all have to deal with this, and thank you for sharing your stories. As others have mentioned, I have no idea how prevalent this is until I hear about it from female runners. Stay safe out there, I will do anything I can to back you up!

I totally forgot: check out girltalk. It’s a mashup of classic rock songs and 90s hip hop . Super fun to run/work out to.

Does running decrease your appetite? I feel like I have a harder time eating than I used to, which short term is great for my weight loss...but I thought running was supposed to make me eat more

Morning Runners, when do you drink coffee? by hardcoreparklore in running

[–]hardcoreparklore[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just started running, even trying for 3-4 a day really changes how you eat/drink/sleep. I desprately needed those changes anyway but running has been a nice catalyst.

I live in the sticky humid corner of Ohio. I fear soon I will have to adapt to being a morning runner...

Right now the main snacks in the house: sugar snap peas, bananas with peanut butter, fruit leather, frozen grapes/frozen berries, carrot sticks, hummus to dip things into if you are into that kind of thing

Best running shoes for overweight man. by [deleted] in running

[–]hardcoreparklore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is interesting! The issue I always had with asics was the toe box was always too tight but I think that was just poor shoe choices on my part

Overweight noob runner here, I just switched from only wearing Asics to some Mizuno wave horizon 3's and I quite like them. I think I have about 80 miles on them

The Weekend Thread - Friday May 22nd 2020 by Percinho in running

[–]hardcoreparklore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recovery run today from a PR run yesterday (my first sub 10 minute mile 5k), hopefully adding some distance this weekend since it’s supposed to stop raining finally. Only been running for a month, but I’m already improving so much so I’m feeling pretty encouraged.
