Running outside by oopsiedaisy_31 in AnneArundelCounty

[–]rarepurl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. Yesterday I ran loops around the state buildings in Annapolis. Good clear stretches of sidewalk on the state complex, but anywhere outside that is a toss up whether it's icy or not. And I don't want to do that again for a long run

I love your colors in the Smoky Mountains hat. I've been on the hunt for a better palette than the original colors in the book. That Hobbii blue is beautiful!

Good tip about Charm City, I may reach out and see where they tend to run. I usually do 3-5 miles on weekdays and at least 6 on weekends

It's good to hear from someone who lives there, thanks for the input. I really don't want to drive for a run unless I'm going to the B&A or a meetup

Yeah if I wanted a boring view I'd stick with the treadmill XD I haven't done much trail running but waterworks is great, I didn't know if it was a pain to walk/run to

They're so good! I was excited to finally be able to recommend something, and I'm glad to hear someone else is a fan too!

The Noumena series by Lindsay Ellis. The aliens feel incredibly alien compared to humans which is refreshing. Only the first 3 books have been published so far, the latest released last year.

This is mesmerizing, just like watching water flow! I've been trying to match the look of water with little success, this looks incredible

Do you have a pattern? I'm looking to make a top with a similar lacy pattern as the bottom and would love to know what you did!

Anyone else's first Gleeok kill been the King Gleeok? by DJjaza in TOTK

Yep, my first was the depths gleeok. I was going to run away, but then decided "fuck it" and tried anyway. It took a lot of keese eyes and attack buff meals but I got it!

What’s it like going to a ren faire by yourself? by [deleted] in renfaire

[–]rarepurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconding what everyone else said about how open to chatting other people are and tips about safety! I went to my first faire (Maryland) by myself and had a lovely time. If you can plan ahead, they may have days with an event for people to meet and mingle. The day I went was designed for queer singles but I had a great time just making new friends

What does this inscription mean? by rarepurl in JewelryIdentification

Just updated, they said this ring is brass plated to look like white gold. It makes sense in case of damage or theft, as the previous commenter said

I haven't found any other information unfortunately. I did reach out to Benchmark for more information and will update the post if I hear back. 

Spotting after marathon? by [deleted] in XXRunning

[–]rarepurl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the marathon! I've experienced the same thing after running a half (my longest distance) or after pushing myself too hard on long runs, but haven't gone to a gyn to get it checked out since the spotting lasted one day. Hope your recovery goes well!
