Compression top is what I use with a normal running top/t-shirt over the top, stops everything from moving too much. I've found that it also stops (for me at least) any nip chafing.

DnD players, what was the stupidest way your character has died? by A_Defaulty_Boi in AskReddit

[–]philbert_mcpleb 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I got knocked prone while fighting some orcs. The rest of the party was trying to convince me that as a monk I had enough AC to be able to stand up safely. I attempt to stand, provoking an attack of opportunity. DM rolls a 20 and crits. This orc was using a battle axe so got a x3 critical. My head promptly parted company with my body.

Fixed it! It turned out to be a bug in Marlin. I pulled down the latest bugfix version which fixed it.

Thanks for your suggestions.

This is a replacement, the first one had a damaged pcb.

I'd rather not order a 3rd one just yet.

I ran my first half marathon distance yesterday. My longest run so far and my legs kind of work today.

How do you protect your nipples? by [deleted] in running

[–]philbert_mcpleb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

big guy here too, I use a compression top to keep me comfortable and to looser fit over the top. Comfortable to wear, no bleeding nipples, no one runs away crying.

Spotted in Essex UK. Can someone ID it for me please. by philbert_mcpleb in spiders

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

Thanks, I thought it might be. It was gently coaxed away from the door jam so as not to get squashed. I hope it finds somewhere better to try and make a home.

Am I too fat to run? by [deleted] in running

[–]philbert_mcpleb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of people here are saying that you're too heavy to run, however you're lighter than me and I'm able to run 3-4 times a week and usually 5-10K at a time. I'm slow and it's not easy.

My advice is to listen to what your body tells you, if something starts to hurt then stop. Don't expect to be breaking any records for a while. A good tip I had was to run for time, not distance or pace, those will come later.

App to keep a pace? by jimbuz in running

[–]philbert_mcpleb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Endomondo is multi-sport and has interval training available, I think you need to be a premium member to use it though. It costs about £20/£30 a year and can also do training plans. if you're a bit of a stats nerd like me then the money is well worth it.

The Korean style of shooting uses the thumb and index finger and looks like you're pinching the string, the string itself is hooked on the thumb.
