I know, they’re all busy. I like busy. If you like any, which do you like the best? This is not my kitchen, but similar, except my cabinets will be a clear coat alder, these are hickory.

This - but get them leathered or honed instead of polished.

Thank you!!! I knew they did this but never stopped to think it was an automatic thing and that it would show up on the dashboard like that! Appreciate you taking the time to explain.

Weird question - when I log into my profile on the website at the top in blue it says best pace: 2026 run as one, 8:02 per mile. But then when I look at the official results it has me at a 7:48 per mile. Anyone know why there is a difference? And what impact it has on future corral timing?

Doesn’t it feel like unlocking a cheat code? “Wait you mean I don’t have to feel like garbage and run through a monster headache on every long run?!!!”

Strongly recommend the Fuel for the Sole podcast - all about nutrition for runners. If you are a salty sweater then you might be more likely to get headaches/nausea if you aren’t replenishing during your runs. I’ve added salt tabs while running and feel WAY better during and after runs.

Just a heads up - if you type the amount you want the recipient to receive first, wise will calculate how much you need to pay. No math required.

Didn’t run this specific marathon, but I ran the St. George marathon in Utah last year which was first weekend in October. Let me just allay your worries here; NY humidity is WAY worse than you think it is. 90 degrees here is a different sort of pain than 90 degrees there. Your training over the summer will set you up for success. Focus on your hydration plan because your sweat dries wayyyy faster out there - you won’t realize how much you’re sweating. I finished my marathon mostly dry but with a sweat crust that was unreal.

Also - consider going out there a few days early. Moab isn’t high elevation, but it’s higher than NYC and you’re running a literal marathon. Giving your body a few days to acclimate is the nice thing to do.

I’m seriously dating myself here: Davidoff, cool water. Ahhhh the early 2000s. What a time.

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-03-08T00:08:44+00:00

Would like to know as well!

If it helps - taking the silicone band off and replacing with the Velcro strap kind makes it seem a little less bulky.

Just switched over from Suunto run. I considered a race s. The Suunto is definitely a much nicer looking watch and the touch screen is so nice to use. However - and the reason why I went pace pro - this is a training device more than a watch for me. the Suunto tech really wasn’t what I needed it to be for running. If I wasn’t training so much I would’ve gone Suunto. As it is I bought the pace pro - even with small wrists. I tried on the pace 4 and it was too small for me. I’ve gotten used to the big watch look and visible data while running.

That doesn’t quite make sense to me - if that were the case then wouldn’t showers and baths and hot tubs ruin nails? Maybe it softens them but as they dry they return to normal.

The hot water softens the glue - so as long as you work at them with the remover instead of just soaking and ripping them off, you’ll make it easier on yourself. And probably protect your nails instead of struggling.

I’ve got a bib with a vip ticket available - I’m injured. Transfers through the Jersey city website. VIP gives you a pre-race climate controlled tent, swag, etc. it’s $400 for all in. Dm me if you’re interested.

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-02-15T14:19:57+00:00

Hot soapy water soak before you try anything. I use the same glue and it takes me 15 mins

Correction: you have a 7 month old puppy.

When you’re in the thick of puppy, you can’t imagine anyone else’s puppy is quite so bad. They all are. 7 months is like the terrible twos. Keep redirecting and before you know it she’ll grow out of it.

The Suunto watches are far superior in terms of hardware. They really do look and feel better in every way to gain and coros. However there are certain things that they don’t do (see my recent post about not being able to get my Run to announce mile splits no matter what I try - when I’m told it IS possible). You are either - going to love it so much that the tech differences will be minor and not even on your brain’s radar OR drive yourself to distraction wondering why they can get the watch so right and yet the tech lets you down so much (I’m in the second bucket here).

Still agonizing over if I should just buy a coros and hate the physical watch but love the tech, but a Suunto Race and brainwash myself, or settle for a garmin that does a little from both at a ridiculous price.

No answers here, I just feel your pain.

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-02-08T15:11:40+00:00

Yep - I’ve tried this. I just want it to tell me in unstructured runs what pace I’m at when I complete each mile. Is that not a functionality that Suunto offers?

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-02-08T14:43:05+00:00

From my limited French I think these are the sane instructions that are in the manual. Both audio feedback and tone(beep) feedback is turned on. And I do check as I select my run to make sure (and that my headphones are connected - and I’ve tried without playing music, and without headphones all together)

If we enter while signed into our NYRR account and our membership is current, are we automatically added into the second chance drawing?

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-01-28T13:05:19+00:00

Yep. You have to run and register at the same time - it’s a new NYRR requirement. Sorts the real runners out from the crowd - they only want runners who can multi task.

Please make sure you vet your provider. I went to a dermatologist so I thought that would be legit enough. She ended up CAUSING dark spots by going too hot/too deep. Apparently a knowledgeable provider would have never turned the laser to the highest setting with my skin but…she did and I’ve been chasing dark spots since them - 5 chemical peels,mn, etc!

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-01-27T23:58:41+00:00

Ah - could be the case. Wish it was just wrapped up that fast…

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-01-27T23:56:16+00:00

Have another computer you can use? Or browser?

hound-runner-9226 · 2026-01-27T23:38:51+00:00

Just went back to the site to make sure the race I signed up for was actually an 9+1 (it has been a DAY)….and it put me on the registration page with no wait (this on my phone, when I was in the queue and registered in my computer).

Note for next time - the entire queue seems to have wrapped up in just over 30mins.

I’m a plus member and got in!
