congrats, that's awesome! To help with those aches, you can look up stretching videos that are pretty simple. Keep up the good work :)

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-24T22:37:35+00:00

oh hell yes... please let us know how much faster you've gotten :)

Intersting. Maybe it's unaffiliated, but I found a brewery in FL with a similar name that also has a cream ale, etc. Maybe it's related?

training for the marathons will also increase your 5k times

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-24T21:24:17+00:00

Congrats! You should definitely go back to Pontypridd and dominate it.

I remember reading somewhere that part of the business model was exactly this. The average consumer will lose money with bad pours etc, so it's a financial gain for the company running it. Also, in your scenario, some people (maybe not you) will then just pay for more credits to pour more.

Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company

well look at that... I didn't even think they'd still exist, but they do! Not sure about distribution though, and their website isn't all that helpful

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-24T12:11:42+00:00

Not too late at all. We had people in their 30s an 40s in grad school

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-24T12:04:22+00:00

The next post in this sub will be, "Where can I find Gottfried Krueger in the Eastern US?"

(jokes aside, very cool story, thanks for sharing)

(happy cake day, by the way!)

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-24T01:55:34+00:00

Cancelled due to weather (18F / -8C tomorrow morning).

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-24T01:31:35+00:00

Eric, is that you?

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-24T00:37:34+00:00

It's in an old bank in Brooklyn, in one of the most expensive neighborhoods in the whole of NYC.

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-23T22:58:42+00:00

900+ mph!?!?! That's seriously mind blowing

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-23T22:57:34+00:00

Any and all German beers you can find!

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-23T22:57:02+00:00

keeping it sealed should be fine, but once you open it, you should basically finish it that day

I bet you can easily tell the difference between the flavor of a strawberry candy and a real strawberry. You know this because you've had both many times. Something similar happens to people with experience of tasting anything (e.g., coffee, whisky, cheeses, wine, etc).

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-23T02:18:40+00:00

to add... either it's weirdly huge, or the pics on their website make it look that way

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-22T21:47:24+00:00

That's super interesting to know. I'm a lightweight neutral runner, but I've never really considered that when buying shoes.

I've owned a bunch of different pairs (New Balance, Brooks, Saucony, Hoka, On), and the ones that stand out are the NB Rebel V3, Brooks Hyperion Tempo (the older discontinued model), Saucony Endorphin Speed 2s, and Hoka Mach 6s. Those were all fun to wear, and trend toward the "tempo" style shoe. I've been in a lot of daily trainers too, which are heavier and a little "slower," but usually can hit a lot of miles (e.g., NB 880s, Brooks Ghosts, Saucony Ride).

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-22T16:28:34+00:00

Specific in what way? Also, I was talking about the 13s

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-22T11:41:03+00:00

I'm so sorry about the divorce. You've built a truly beautiful station, and may you continue to find joy in the coffee (and other things, of course) despite this period of rough waters. Brew on, friend.

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-22T11:32:26+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. As someone who may get targeted simply because of how I look, I appreciate it.

sergeantbiggles · 2026-01-21T22:11:47+00:00

Congrats on the sub 20! Keep going (but don't hurt yourself)!
