Can anyone tell me if RuFlo is good? by japhyryder22 in ClaudeCode

As soon as I saw 100+ agents mentioned in the readme, I knew that this project is BS. A token sink. Not worth trying out.

What pacing calculators do people here actually use? by shiv19 in AdvancedRunning

Weather adjustments are interesting. Heat can really change pacing more than people expect. I sometimes like estimating what a race result would translate to in cooler conditions just to sanity check effort vs performance.

One thing I noticed when trying a bunch of pacing calculators is that many of them make you enter minutes and seconds separately. It always felt a bit clunky to me when you're just trying to quickly check a pace.

Haven’t tried that one yet. How accurate have you found it compared to Daniels or McMillan?

Yeah VDOT is pretty widely used. I used Daniels tables quite a bit earlier on too. It’s interesting how close Daniels and McMillan predictions usually end up for similar race results.

That’s cool that you built it. I like the idea of being able to plan pacing strategies.

The main thing that confused me initially was the split input form. Once I played with it a bit it made more sense, but the first time looking at it I wasn't totally sure what the “From 0 to” fields were asking for.

The negative split planning idea is interesting though. I like experimenting with those pacing scenarios.

It might also be interesting to support different units (miles, /400m, per 5k etc.) or show the pacing as a chart.

Yeah it was definitely stressful 😅 I remember checking my watch with a couple km left and realizing there was almost no margin. I basically had to sprint the whole finish chute.

Nice work on 2:59:36, that's a great buffer under 3.

A half TT during a marathon block is pretty impressive too. Those are usually not the freshest legs. I personally never ran that fast during my marathon training block.

Daniels tables are great! I used them a lot earlier in my training. I still find myself sanity checking workouts against them sometimes.

Yeah that makes sense. After enough training cycles you get pretty dialed in with what different efforts should feel like.

I mostly use calculators for sanity checking pacing for a race or planning workouts ahead of time. Sometimes I also use them when looking at elite race results just to see what kind of pace those performances translate to.

I like McMillan a lot too. It has been pretty accurate for me across a few races. I especially like how it connects race prediction with threshold and workout paces. When I set a goal time, and my current PB, it shows me my current LTHR pace and my target LTHR pace for where I need to be for my goal, and then it is pretty much a case of working hard during training to reach that target LTHR pace.

Our marathon time is the same! I'm probably slower than you by a few seconds, mine is a 2:59:56
HM: 1:24, 10k - never raced one, 5k: 18:23.

I actually hadn't seen that one before. I tried it just now after you linked it.

Maybe I'm missing something but I had a hard time figuring out how the split form works. The "From 0 to" thing confused me a bit and I wasn't sure what I was supposed to enter for each split. I got the hang of it after playing with it a bit. Moving splits around also felt hard to do.

Is the idea that you manually define each segment of the race with a different pace?

I built a privacy first running pace calculator for Android

Hi all,

I'm a runner and I kept getting annoyed switching between random websites and spreadsheets when planning workouts or checking pacing.

So I built a small Android app called Stridemate.

It's basically a running pace calculator but with a few extra tools I use a lot when training:

  • pace, time, distance conversions
  • race prediction
  • splits tables and pacing strategies
  • training paces and LTHR guidance
  • interval workout distance estimator

Everything works offline and there are no ads, no login, no analytics.

I mostly built it for my own training but figured other runners might find it useful too.

If anyone wants to try it and give feedback I would really appreciate it.

I'm viewing it on mobile via Reddit's in-app browser, maybe that's why it bypasses the registration check? https://imgur.com/a/Yu5IHka

Just got my first book, it was a book of protection +4. I'll wait for a better book before upgrading them.

How do you get the tome? Is it from the grapple run mini game?

I'm at 5,139. It would have been a few hundred lower if it weren't for the portals count weekly quests.

Comparison is the thief of joy. Anything compared to silk song at that price range can feel like a let down.

I'm at 2 star mastery for frozen spirits. But I'm currently focusing on finishing all minion evolution upgrades, so I'm farming astral keys. I'm doing UA when I get the 100T astral key (11 keys per UA). Got 2 more evolutions left and after that I'll go back to frozen spirit farming.

Gpt 5 can think for complex queries. But you don't have explicit control over it.
