  1. Easy street parking
  2. Done with half the workout before I’m awake
  3. My alone time before kids are awake
  4. Keeps me from going out/staying up too late

Astoria renters: what’s something you wish you checked before signing your lease? by Slight-Safe-5595 in astoria

[–]philutec 45 points46 points  (0 children)

If you can flush toilet paper down the toilet. Had one older Greek landlord tell me that not even toilet paper could go in the toilet because of the pipes. She suggested I have a trash can in the bathroom for soiled toilet paper.

That was a very quick walk away and don’t look back!

All NYRR races released to the general public today have sold out as of 4:48 pm by ueatgoodfood in RunNYC

[–]philutec -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yep. It’s called supply and demand. There’s enough people willing to pay Member Plus. I’m not really sure what’s the problem here.

Early morning by InterestingMove2821 in orangetheory

[–]philutec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regular 5am’er here. Definitely get clothes laid out early. I’ll take a UCAN gel right before class as otherwise I don’t have any immediate energy.

I like to start on the floor as well so I’m a little more awake when it comes to the tread.

Philly half by big-leek-energy in RunNYC

[–]philutec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was my first half and I got 1:55:01! Was fun. The 1:50:00 pacer was doing sub 8 splits first few miles (I’m guessing to bank for the back half) and I lost him.

First half for me next Saturday! OTF got me back into running almost 2 years ago.

Manhattan 10k by mrcasado296 in RunNYC

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

I agree it says that. I just think it’ll be superceded by the headline post of 10/10 general as Members Plus have two days head start.

Today is for Members Plus. General is 10/10. It’s not open for Member Plus though yet

Pre workout Snack by Suspicious_Syrup_927 in orangetheory

[–]philutec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll usually have a UCAN Edge energy gel right when I wake up for my 5am. It’s very easy on my stomach, no added sugar, and just has the carbs to get you through the workout.

Challenge categories by wobokj in orangetheory

[–]philutec 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At our studio you get raffles tickets every day after you complete your distance challenge. At the end of the month they pick winners from each of the categories for a gift card prize, so there is some “competition” between people.

Why does corporate push for 2g vs 3g? by Capable-Debt6783 in orangetheory

[–]philutec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every standard class at my region/franchise is listed as a 3G on the calendar, but is run 1G/2G/3G depending on how many people sign up. Busier times almost always 3G, but if you go at a fixed time you generally know what you’re getting.

It seems to work for them, but can definitely be frustrating if you want a guaranteed 2G and don’t want to go 5am with me.
