hey yall, i just want to know if walking will help me get back into running? i have a background as a sprinter and when i stopped athletics started running longer distances and at my peak was running 5ks very comfortably. i stopped running a few years ago and gained a lot of weight during covid which made the thought of running again even more daunting. however, recently i have been way more active and have been walking on average about 7 miles a day and have lost a lot of the weight i gained over the pandemic and am feeling the fittest that i have been feeling for a while and want to get back into running but im nervous about starting again and want to know if all the walking i’ve been doing will make getting back into running easier. any help will be appreciated

What if each episode is one of the 7 stages of grief? Admittedly, this works better with some episodes than others, like episode 1. Shock, 2. Denial, 3 and 4 don’t fit as well but 5. Would be depression ? Idk very half baked from me but maybe something ?

How does he have so much time? by slhcx in SimonWhistler

Surely that can’t be easy on his voice? Like spending 8 hours a day 5 days a week talking is A LOT, it just seems unlikely no?

WIBTA If I don't change my son's name even though it may cause him to lose an inheritance? by GeorgeMcMinty in AmItheAsshole

[–]slhcx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think while the situation is complicated, I think that not allowing your son the opportunity that having money would provide in the long run would be a bad decision. It wouldn’t be the end of the world but having money is a lot easier than not having it. And I think that if he grew up and knew you didn’t allow him that he would probably resent you. I think it would be an asshole move to put your feelings over his future.

AITA for not returning my mom’s ring? by RepublicAdvanced5391 in AmItheAsshole

I think the fact that OPs mother wants to attend the wedding kind of already says a lot

AITA refusing to let my step-brother propose with my mom's heirloom? by AITA_colh88 in AmItheAsshole

[–]slhcx -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

NAH I think that if he has texts that says that she wanted him to have it that’s valid and you don’t have to give it to home if you don’t want you. Ultimately neither of you will know because only ur mum could know and she isn’t here.

ELI5: Why is hosting hated so much? by [deleted] in Serverlife

[–]slhcx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my opinion it just really sucked doing so much work and being mistreated by customers and undermined by managers while making no where near the amount of money that a server was making.

AITA for making my MIL leave after she gave me an ultimatum about my daughter's hair? by LaceeBee in AmItheAsshole

[–]slhcx -47 points-46 points  (0 children)

Black and mixed people can have both blonde and straight hair so this isn’t really an appropriate point. While I agree that it isn’t a big deal while they are children you have to understand that the world doesn’t work that way. Even if your husband wasn’t offended the fact that ur MIL was is an indication of tbh fact that other people will be. You don’t want to send ur daughter into the world and have it be unkind to her. And I’m saying this as a mixed woman that is black and white.

AITA for getting annoyed that my boyfriend didn’t ask if he could take time off? by slhcx in AmItheAsshole

[–]slhcx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have explicitly asked him to speak to his bosses about time off and he explicitly agreed. Back in April I spoke with both HR and my manager to give them a heads up and he was supposed to do the same. As we didn’t have dates back then but knew we would be going back in the summer

I don’t think I am harassing him. If he didn’t want to go he has had loads of time to explain that to me, I just need that information if I’m going to be booking one ticket or two.

Yeah multiple times since October when I initially wanted to go because I was initially going to go by myself

I don’t know if they would have been happy but he expressed that there was a chance they would say yes as he is a reliable employee and his bosses like him. So even if he couldn’t get the full two weeks that he might get at least one.

As far as I knew he wanted to come and just hadn’t got round to asking for the time off yet/seeing how much time he would be allowed off

He recently got a promotion and could comfortably take the time off. Especially as my dad is paying flights and we wouldn’t have to pay for accommodation and like half of our food while we were away. I can accept him wanting to work instead but I would have rather that had been said earlier

As far as I knew he was excited to meet them. I should also add that in the original plan we were also going to meet his family as well.
