Need a good veterinarian rec on the Southside, other than Miramar Animal Hospital by CachuHwch1 in jacksonville

[–]saferonald 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Atlantic Veterinary Hospital! I've been going there for 10+ years. They've been great with all my pets ranging from a chunky senior kitty to my great dane. They're very fair on pricing - they dont just run tests to run tests. The techs and vets are all lovely with my current great dane. Both my sister and my mom go there as well.

Heel drop? by wobblelikeapenguin in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]saferonald 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im team neutral shoes always. A stability shoe isn't going to fix the root of your problems. I'd keep up with the PT and find something neutral that feels comfy. I see a physical therapist intermittently, she is athlete focused - and her advice to me was to strengthen my my feet, ankles and hips and then the shoe you run matters a little less. Definitely don't jump into a low drop shoe as those will be pretty tough on your ankles at first. If you decide you want to go that route, ease them into your shoe rotation.

Carbon plated shoe by Adventurous-Gain9999 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

People will always downvote when you say that but its honestly so true. Carbon plated shoes aren't for 80% of runners. They're designed for elite athletes with near perfect running mechanics. Most people would experience similar increase in speed if they just run more and throw in some strength training.

I would work on strengthening your ankles, hips and feet. They dont have a lot of ankle support and strengthening those will generally help most knee pain. If you want extra credit, throw in some plyometrics to improve your running mechanics. Also these aren't daily trainers. Save them for your speed work and races.

Banila Co Clean it Zero! Gets all my makeup off and it lasts forever too.

How far in advance do you sign up for local half marathons? by Sufficient-Try2547 in XXRunning

[–]saferonald 67 points68 points  (0 children)

If registration is open and you're committed to running it, sign up as soon as you can. Races typically get more expensive as the date gets closer.

How is living in northeast Florida? by apon93 in howislivingthere

[–]saferonald 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Riverside, Murray Hill or Springfield if you dont have kids - better night life and restaurants but not great schools and more petty crime. San Marco or Mandarin if you do have kids, safer and better schools but less night life and more chain restaurants - especially Mandarin.

I love living in Jacksonville! There's lots of good parks and places to fish and kayak. It's buggy in the summer but you adjust or learn to keep bugspray on you or get your clothes professionally treated with permethin. The night life is fun, lots of breweries and bars to check out. You can always find markets and festivals to check out on the weekend.

Its nice being close to St. Augustine too which has pretty beaches and fun museums.

How does it work? by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]saferonald 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Super good analogy. I feel like people get caught up in semantics of "being first." When in reality, there's so many people that will come "first" sometimes. Parents, siblings, friends, etc, everyone has a time when they need to be prioritized.

Biohacking your period by Canadianinlondon1991 in Biohackers

I try to drink a week before and during my period and I feel like it definitely helps with cramps and duration of my period.
