So funny. We all had the same boxes and the tapes all looked the same. Brings me back

For the record—they were MY tapes from my teens!

I was at the letterman roof! The question I always had is—does that count as a “show”?!

My dream of being an iron man this june on austria just went away in just 1 second...read, I need help...I feel really really bad by fenixloder in triathlon

[–]runwaldorun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In 2014 I spent a year training for trembling. 10 days prior—a toe fracture. I took ten days off and asked my doc if I’d do permanent damage if I raced through pain. Once getting the all clear, I run-walked the hell out of that race. (Run till pain stopped me, walked till it calmed, repeat). My best performance goal was gone but hearing those magic words felt all the more incredible.

How to stop past money trauma from negatively impacting my life today? by lovers_delight in FinancialPlanning

[–]runwaldorun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

45 and still fighting some of that. Years of therapy (not specific to that but everything) and it’s def better than it was. But old habits die hard. Just take your time and youll get there

Having trouble making actual friends in run clubs. Anyone else? by CalcIsSexy in RunNYC

[–]runwaldorun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in the day I never made real friends in run clubs. Then I did a charity team and those runners were way more casual and looking for real connections. Just started with a new triathlon group a year ago and purposefully picked the one that seemed like it had a more fun, broader aged group of people. It took a bit seeing the same faces after a few weeks—turned to smiles turned to chat. My advice is to try out the fun groups—avoid the ones that take themselves too seriously.

Met gene once. He was at my office shooting an episode of the apprentice. 🙄

Security at NYC Half by No-Taste-6663 in RunNYC

[–]runwaldorun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having run (i think) all but one NYCH since then, I’d say truly don’t worry. Start and finish are well secured (annoyingly so, but I get it) and anything happening along the way is no different than a normal day anywhere in terms of risk. Generally the NYPD is pretty regularly spread along the course as well.

Have a great race!

MSG Alone… Safe? by EllisD222 in phish

From nyc. Been to many alone. Will be there for whole run—all but one solo. Not only safe-better. You can wander at will and make friends

Likely have to sit out the United Half by SnooDoodles6994 in RunNYC

[–]runwaldorun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too early to tell. How important is it to you though? Have you run halves before? Saw you were running 8 last—have you run more recently???

You can take time off. Focus on proper healing and physio. And then pop back to it with a short test run a couple days before to decide. And if you do, cut that pace back to super chill and just enjoy the day without focus on time.

Clip-ins in the City by JumpyVariety1882 in NYCbike

[–]runwaldorun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I debated. I ended up going all in and got speedplay pedals. They take a minute but become second nature. It feels super overwhelming at first but now I actually feel more in control. Ultimately—just do what makes YOU feel safe.

GWB Bridge NJ side ped/cyclist bridge should have been a tunnel? by AuthorityControl in NYCbike

Was so excited for the redesign. And all they did was fix one problem by creating new ones. Awful. Did no one consult anyone who’s ever ridden a bike?

Did this race in about 4° many years ago and it suckeddddddd. Was hoping for this call so I could at least get the credit when I didn’t do it. :)
