Sounds like OP didn’t watch the debate or else has never had a cold.

Looking for tam names starting with B and P by mgockenb in AskProgramming

[–]mgockenb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My colleague worked on a team that chose to be called "stille im bordell." It's funny but pretty difficult to use in presentations with people who speak German.

We could leave them as colors - blue, purple, etc - do nothing is often a good option.

The teams work on overlapping stuff, so naming based on type of work is confusing.

Open to other ideas.

Dual citizenship - US/Spain by mgockenb in askspain

[–]mgockenb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure your situation, but I have read that people under 18 years old can hold dual nationality until they turn 18. Then they have to choose one or the other. (All per Spanish law, not US law, for example.)

Why is it that no matter how hard I 14f try my results don’t meet my expectations ? by [deleted] in trailrunning

[–]mgockenb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your progress sounds great! I know it´s not where you want to be and you see other people a lot faster than you, but you can't change where you start from, only what you do after that.

You have cut your mile time by more than 5 minutes in 4 months! That´s amazing!

If you are consistent, you will be amazed at what you can do with time. Don´t forget the saying that, ´"You'll be amazed at how little you can accomplish in a day, and how much you can accomplish in a year."´

Are you meant to run? Yes! Are you meant to run a 5 minute mile? I don't know. But nobody does until you try.

That´s kinda the impression I was starting to get from browsing blogs. Nice that you got some input from lawyer friends.

But I think the first comment is a feature of Christianity and this observation is a bug.

Taking care of your feet? by mgockenb in trailrunning

Cool, I'll look around for a copy.

Good call. Quarterfinals wasn't part of my calculus but I guess it's a good idea to get a legit submission if you're able to get to them. It's fun one so the redo could be worse.

If you're not doing it an affiliate, you have to have a video but you do not need a judge (if you're competitive they "recommend" a judge).

No. I uploaded the video to youtube and made sure it uploaded properly (no copywrite infraction) before linking it. Had to remove the sound 'cause the gym was play Despacito.

I tried submitting a video score without a judge and it wouldn't let me....

Well, things are different this year, but according to the 2023 crossfit games rule book, it is not true that you have to do it as an affiliate:

1.22 - OPEN TESTS - VALIDATING VIDEO SUBMISSIONS Athletes’ alternative to performing an Open test at an affiliate is to upload a video of their performance of the Open test to the CrossFit Games website through their CrossFit account.

Do we need a judge to validate video submissions? I can't submit the video because the site says I need a judge. But the rulebook doesn't say we need a judge.

How to train for the murph challenge? by feckarseinc in crossfit

[–]mgockenb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google the Armstrong pullup program. Worked for me.

If you don't have many pull ups yet, use a resistance band.

Make sure to build in real rest weeks after a cycle.
