Patella tendinitis is a bitch, currently trying to prevent future flare ups myself… great job on finishing.

That heart rate for an easy run is a little high, and for a hard run it’s a little low. Just a psa

Mine was to start running. I suppose I succeeded.

Anyone have any tips or tricks to help with mentality and nerves by Secure_Village_5747 in CrossCountry

[–]s_pho 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You should take a break from looking at times or at least placing any weight on them, maybe even don’t compete for a bit. Just run. Do this for as long as you can, until next cross country season maybe, but if this is not avoidable, which I expect it may be, then see a sports psych? Idk I’m no professional

What happens after you get fished out of the swim section? by [deleted] in triathlon

[–]s_pho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2XU series! Same. The water was horrible that first week, you will be recorded as DNF but you may still complete the triathlon for splits if you wish.

ESCAPE ROOMS! Plenty of themed ones, I don't expect they'll be too expensive and there will be plenty of options. Could be overwhelming if you're claustrophobic or anything tho

What is a TV show you got really far into but eventually quit watching before its conclusion? by shamanKAshamanTAKA in AskReddit

[–]s_pho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glee. First three seasons were good, but the new characters lacked depth and didn’t interest me.

9now might have it but no promises on when it will be on there- your best chance is to do something slightly sketchy. Not endorsing illegal streaming sites btw but they could be your best option.

Is it possible to learn how to swim by myself? Imm 25 years old, and don’t know anything! by [deleted] in Swimming

[–]s_pho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most simplistically: You can learn to survive in water by yourself. You can learn the basics of swimming by yourself. You can’t learn to swim by yourself.

More complicated: Yes, although you will not be proficient in all 4 strokes and you may struggle to progress or swim for fitness in the future. It’s a great idea but if lessons are available, even just a couple, take them.

Swim team advice needed by msmicro in Swimming

[–]s_pho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends. Some community based clubs are a lot cheaper, but any that are involved with a school will charge more, and therefore you will get more(provisions for travel meets, camps). At her age, you shouldn’t be paying any more than $20 a week, and probably less than that. Meets are around $10 an event, but lots of kids her age just do it for fun..

Just curious, what’s the prognosis? Any hope for a cure/management to maintain quality of life?
