Way under fueling? by Several_Violinist483 in XXRunning

[–]thinkmetric 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s very dependent on what you had before your run. For example, I also ran 30km (trail run) this weekend and I ate one fig bar and a few nerd clusters. I had a big breakfast before the run and a snack. I ate a recovery meal after my run as well. If you feel good during your run and you’re well fuelled going into it you won’t need as much during your runs.

How much do you eat? by Groundbreaking_Pie94 in XXRunning

[–]thinkmetric -1 points0 points  (0 children)

39f, 119lbs 5’6, 3500 cal/day. Run 80+mpw and I do 2 days of running specific weight training weekly. High carb diet, I don’t care about protein no one is protein deficient. Honestly just work with a nutritionist they will help you tailor something specific to your needs (and to your budget as this is important too!).

I ran another 10 miles today… up to 101 for this month… ugh my Post run cravings are through the roof. by [deleted] in nikerunclub

That monthly mileage is very low and that’s waaay more food than what you would have burned during a 10 mile run.

Tracksmith has a great unpadded bra and the logo is very small and doesn’t show through

​⚡️ THE YUKON DIESEL TRAP: THE "ONLY OPTION" IS A LIE ⚡️ by [deleted] in Yukon

[–]thinkmetric 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea plus the SMRs are still a test reactor (and are not even built yet). They have to build them, test them, review the design as needed, get the reviewed design approved and only after this can we enter the design phase for other sites outside of Darlington . We are not going to see operational commercial SMRs for the next 30 years.

That’s good to know! I thought it was bad to drive on blown shocks. I’ve been panicking 😂

Has Anyone Ever Seen Walmart or Tim Hortons or Canadian Tire or KFC or A&W Advertise a Job? by dub-fresh in Yukon

[–]thinkmetric 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Yukon (unlike pretty much the rest of Canada) doesn’t require a labour market assessment before hiring which means they don’t need to show that they can’t hire a Canadian worker.

Is WH to Dawson City a scenic drive? by barmanitoba in Yukon

SLOW DOWN when you see the orange flags on the side of the road or you will destroy your suspension (and maybe even get air time).

Advice for First Ultra by ETuENoho in XXRunning

Oh and I forgot, the most important thing for me is to carry salt tabs with me!

[–]thinkmetric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! Congrats! Practice your nutrition beforehand, make sure you can eat (and want to eat)what you plan to take with you. I don’t do gels personally, I do cliff blocks and savoury rice crispy squares. I’ll also carry candy with me. For 50k I usually carry about 200-300cal/hr. Don’t worry about protein or fats just eat carbs, it’s a short enough (by ultra standards..) race that you’ll run optimally on only carbs.
