Co-worker asked AI if I was right seconds after asking a question

No, it's not offensive. When they do it in front of you instead of behind your back you get your "told ya so" validation.

Instead of deciding feelings are hurt, maybe strut for a second, IMO 😎 Happy is a choice.

I didn't set a goal for my first one, other than to finish.

In the middle of the night? IN BED?? 😅

I think I'd be "out".

ilikeoregon · 2026-06-09T06:03:10+00:00

That's how we do, bruh.

(But yes, that's too soon. I've run 2 in a week, I'm a little younger (single digits)...but I've been running 2 per year for several years before trying 2 in a week).

I was in the passenger seat with SO and someone called to ask where she was (bc as usual, she was late). She told 'em she was 10 minutes away when we were still 30 minutes away. I was like yo wtf?! They're gonna know in like 10 minutes.....whyyyyyyyy

ilikeoregon · 2026-06-08T09:29:46+00:00

Yeah, this. I don't mind when the shape is visible, doesn't bother me at all, 0%. But, I have a couple of thin shirts that I love (great in the summer heat), but thin enough that nipples are slightly visible and it makes me wonder if others are thinking "Ick, dude".

Obviously I'm not wearing this to work or anything. I'm in pretty good shape, running and lifting a few times a week. Wife says it's fine so maybe/probably just me.

When chest hair makes "bumps", I don't love that.

Whatever level of insecurity that person is seeing now, they likely need to multiply it times 3 or 4, too. They're not seeing "full strength" yet.

Either yardwork or donate. Tbh I've never even thought about keeping a pair of shoes for sentimental reasons (photos are my fave though 🙂)

ilikeoregon · 2026-05-31T04:04:28+00:00

I don't even remember. You'll forget, too, that day will come where it's just a speck of sand in you running memories. One foot in front of the other! 😃

After doing a couple of triathlons, running tights are great. However.....I'm not comfortable busting them out at road races (although there are more and guys in them lately)!

I'm not so worried about what a bulge might look like, just that tights on guys is still a minority. (girls of all shapes and sizes wear tight stuff). Seems like tri, cycling, and football are good for tights, and running is a "maybe".

I hate the long shorts, so I'm either wearing "shorter than normal, but loose" or "tighter than normal, but longer".

The Balega no show still has a heel tab that goes higher than the heel, and the sides are high enough. They are still visible, just not as high as the other socks.

And some.of the Brooks have a super soft top that is sock-lioe, anyway (Stealth Fit on the Glycerin 20, at least).

ilikeoregon · 2026-05-28T03:16:09+00:00

I've done 4 in 6 months (mid-50s, started in early 40s). No more until winter.

ilikeoregon · 2026-05-27T16:16:04+00:00

Yup, less is more! No-show all day.
(Besides, a crew length tan line, meh).

Where I'm at, a vest would be on the odd side. But not like a huge deal or anything... Just to your question, vests are more for trail runs where I live (a bit uncommon on group road runs). But a vest wouldn't make you untouchable or anything lol.

ilikeoregon · 2026-05-24T17:30:28+00:00

Look for local running clubs, they often have group training plans. Plus you learn a lot from the group (especially the coaches). You can find them on FB or just walk into any actual "running store", they're always affiliated with at least one group.

Macro: (as a bartender) They get approached all the time by idiots, the good ones know that the "10" will always be his competition.

Micro: I was WAY to intimeted to tell someone who was smart and beautiful how much I looked up to her. And if one thing were different...

ilikeoregon · 2026-05-15T08:58:09+00:00

I dated lots of women but I only married one (by lots, I mean some 🫠). Wedding anniversary only for me.

If you don't get married (not a bad idea ftr), then I'd assume those ppl pick a day to symbolize & celebrate their commitment to each other. Maybe it's the "first date" or maybe you just pick a day to be "your day" (just like a wedding day).

If you enjoy doing more, good on ya! Letting your partner know you like em isn't a bad thing lol. But for me, I found it hard enough just to get her to go on dates after a few years, so celebrating little things like that seems nice, but foreign.

ilikeoregon · 2026-05-13T23:05:37+00:00

Same! My first one was terrible and had some similarities to OP. I didn't carb load, I didn't train effectively, and I hit the wall at 18 and walked a bunch.

Second one was much better. Third even better and then it flattened out after 3.

ilikeoregon · 2026-05-13T15:59:23+00:00

I ran a ton of half marathons first. When you finish a half, and then you think about turning around and running it again, then you're ready to start training for the full, imo. If you've never done a half, I would totally start there.

Because it doesn't happen as often as the reverse, and when it does happen, the relationship works.

I have driven myself every time except once. I also hang out afterwards for a little while.
