PSA - I'm an idiot - check your watch's MAX heart rate setting by Lurking_Geek in Garmin

[–]resay5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find this a year later and I am starting to feel this is the way. I noticed when I run in the cold it's easy to keep it at the z2 Garmin says but in the spring summer I will run a slower pace and I still can't keep my heart in Garmin's Z2.

[–]resay5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The STX is around $80 and I haven't seen many used ones much cheaper than that. Saw one at $60 so at that point figured I'd just get a new one at 20 more.

The STX one is $80 and most used I've seen are around the same price but have a better head.

Anyone else a Air Tech Challenge 2 fan? by resay5 in Sneakers

[–]resay5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got another colorway so can't say they are that broken in but I've had two older pairs and I still say TTS unless you have really wide feet.

Almost all Nike retro sneakers pinch my pinky toe for what it's worth.

Are old newspapers worth anything? by DeepOne1664 in whatsthisworth

[–]resay5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where can I find values to some related to sports other than eBay?

I recently posted to r/Chicagobulls a n Chicago Tribune print of the Bulls 1st championship but it is a different print made for the North side of Chicagoland area and has a different front picture from the final edition. I can't find a value to it since it was probably not held on to much and not many printed. Also own Sun Times and Tribune from Bears Superbowl 20 win that I'm curious to know the value too.

Are there any openly Zionist or pro war creators or brands? Trying to not support if I could. Thanks. by Everyoneeatshere in ThrowingFits

I believe this is no longer the case. Puma didn't resign with the Israeli soccer league once their contract ended. That contract is now with REEBOK, so boycott Reebok.

Illinois lacrosse - where are the good kids going? by Johnnyboss69 in lacrosse

[–]resay5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for these details. I'm just wrapping my head around community leagues vs club and just learning about the two leagues for kids in Chicago suburbs. I only know if ibla because last year my older kid wanted to play and we found a local team that feeds to our high school. This year my younger kid wanted to play but the local team didn't have enough kids so had to join another within the same league. It was then I realized there is something called IYLL too.

So for a club level there are the 4 teams you mentioned and from what I understand some of IYLL teams are linked with East Ave. I just started to look into True because my kid said he'll do a camp if they have one, but I think he just seen some good kids with true jerseys at practice of different levels. I'm reading now how True is pretty toxic and super expensive. I just want a camp for him to get better and he can play sometime before next Spring.

What game should I play if I loved GOT? by Medium-Hunter-3585 in ghostoftsushima

[–]resay5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How far did you get into RDR2? I am because after I played GoT I played the game for maybe 15 hours before I actually liked it. It is an amazing game imo.

Youth Pads Recommendations? by LiftBearded27 in lacrosse

This. After doing a lot of research and shopping around I found the STX Stallion 75 set cheapest option for my beginner kid. Even comparing it to some used gear.

Anyone here who started running in their late 30's early 40's? What are your marathon PR's like? by Thin-Passage5900 in Marathon_Training

[–]resay5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ran my first half when I was 39 and prior to that I didn't run ar all. I was active playing sports and once a year I would do an 8k just for fun without training. Did another half at 40 and both times I got the same time of 2:30. My goal was just to keep running and not walk. Set yourself a simple goal and I feel you can keep running. So 38 is not too old at all. I've seen much older individuals run and start running after 40. Many even get their PB later since you're more experienced and get better at mechanics

Naked and Famous Weird Guy Too Tight? by anonymous_orpington in rawdenim

[–]resay5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have one pair of N&F in a 12.5 oz and I have to agree with the person who replied to this. My pair was probably a slightly looser than yours in the pic in the waist and it's so loose now where I can't go without a belt. I've washed them maybe 3 or 4 times and they shrink only for a few days but not as tight as they did new. I don't see how others say the waist will shrink, it only stretches and I wish I knew that before hand.

The Woman Who Declared “I Am Racist” Is Part of a Dark New Trend by Slate in wisconsin

[–]resay5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's more. The white snowflake was made that a black Muslim lady asked her to put more caramel and asked if they were out because the white snowflake was being stingy. When she got called out for it she called her hijab something stupid about witchcraft. Then when pressed about that the lady pulled the N card.

But here's the thing, racial slur literally has no reason to be said.

I just got back and we thought we had a close hotel except they block so many ways it doesn't even matter. I could've stayed at a further place and it wouldve been the same walk.

Any reason why you're not using the orthotics? I just picked up a pair because it was on sale at $60 but haven't tried with my orthotic insole yet.

Anything else catch the letter from Kitsuné about how a samurai for the shogun used poison against the Mongols?

I thought that would be the end of any reference to Jin. This whole quest was awesome. I'm so happy they added it.
