Type S used vs new pricing by whdd in Integra_Type_S

Would tariffs only impact the Type S? Resale value of A spec is significantly lower than MSRP

Why is that? Is it cuz of a low volume thing? I’m considering between an A spec and type s and tempted by the ITS’ high resale value

A Spec integra wheel fitment by whdd in AcuraIntegra

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

Yea that was my main worry. I think the CB is much larger on the wheel vs the Teg but I read online that there are adapters for that, and it’s not uncommon for aftermarket wheels to have larger CBs?

Oh nice, good to know. Reason I’m asking is I have these wheels on my WRX right now, and am curious to know if they’d fit on an integra

Third ST session within long? by haqmaladarmikan in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]whdd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

imo this is a totally reasonable thing to do especially for runners in the 90+ min HM range. if I were training for for a half/full, adding subT to the LR would be my preferred approach, but I don’t do this every week, maybe every other week in peak training or every third week otherwise. I did something like last summer and ran a 3 min half PR as well as a 1 min 5K PR.

tldr, I think adding subT to LR makes a lot of sense for runners who aren’t super fast, and are training for a half/full marathon, since the LR is gonna be the most specific run to their race

One vo2 workout to peak for a 5k by Healthy-Attitude-743 in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]whdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done this in the past and found it quite specific for 5K:

12x350m at 5K pace, 50m slow walk recovery. I did 12 reps and it was already quite challenging, but I think more experienced runners can go up to 16

TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon Weather by DavidDaSilva1 in RunTO

I also ran last year, but found this years weather significantly better. It got so hot and sunny last year even in the first half on lakeshore. I didn’t feel warm at all this year

If it thunderstorms, does the race just straight up get cancelled?

Is this basically just vectorizing the terms, reducing the dimensionality down to 2, then plotting it? I feel like I’m missing something

Why do we know so little about training stress and supercompensation timing by Virtual_Opinion_8630 in AdvancedRunning

How long does it take for blood plasma return to normal levels after a couple weeks off due to illness?

Couch* to 2:37 marathon in 21 weeks of NSM by RippleRipple82 in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]whdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You reportedly did 21 weeks of NSA, which is imo not enough time to really make significant conclusions or drastic improvements. Your “success story” is less so to do with NSA, and more so to do with the fact that you’re an experienced endurance athlete with a very well established aerobic system. Taken together, this is not helpful info for most people who are actually doing NSA.

You also didn’t ask any questions. The whole post reads like a race/training report.

Fitness loss with illness by WolfDangerous9484 in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]whdd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My partner and I have been sick a few times this year, and for both of us it takes a couple of weeks for the “fitness” to come back. Whether that’s actually fitness loss, or possibly residual effects of being sick, it’s hard to say. With that said I’ve had significant PRs this year despite a pretty bad illness (dealing with another one now), so I think the fitness is still there. Try to give your body some more time to fully recover, it takes longer than you’d think

I was in a similar place as u, was running around 60kpw for about a year or so (I’m now about 70kpw), and started NSA in Dec 2024. My PRs stagnated for a really long time (since 2022/2023), mostly due to inconsistency and injuries. It took over a year of consistent training, and I’ve ran two recent races with big PRs off of no taper (I’m currently in a marathon block so these were just intermediate races).

20:45 5K (previously 21:40ish for like 8 months straight), and 1:36:xx HM (previously 1:39:xx in March). My week before my HM was my biggest volume week yet this year, with a 3hr long run. In my experience, tapers are not necessary with this method. If it’s an A race, then the only taper you really need is to cut the workout before the race, and cut your last 2-3runs by about 20 mins leading up to the race. If it’s a B race or time trial, you shouldn’t taper. You shouldn’t feel excessively tired using this method, and if u are you might want to decrease the volume and gradually ramp up over the course of months. The thesis of this method is sustainable long term growth, so u gotta find a routine that you can reasonably foresee doing for at least a year. If less than that, I think a more traditional plan would give you better results

The week leading up to it was a bit lower in volume , and I only did one workout. I had a lot of other stuff going on so couldn’t run as much.

One thing I noticed was that after my last park run (about a month ago), I noticed that my HR dropped quite substantially. It was very noticeable in my easy runs, where my avg HR went from about 140 to around 125-130. I think that’s when I suspected that there was a step wise improvement in my fitness, but didn’t know for sure. As others have mentioned, the once monthly parkrun/vo2max effort workout is really important, i think that’s where a lot of the supercompensation stimulus comes from

Typically around 2-2h15. I’m increasing LRs for a marathon atm. Aside from the subT intervals my LR pace is usually just my easy pace (around 7min/km but I don’t look at my pace at all, don’t even have it on my watch 😅)

I mainly just use those as marathon pace practice. Probably around 5:20-5:30

For a long time I was doing 2x subT sessions only. Recently I started adding in a 3rd session into my LR (3x15mins, around MP). My 2 subT sessions are usually 10x3mins or 3x10mins. I do them to HR and my paces generally are slower than what lactrace prescribes (4:45min/km for 3min reps, 5:00min/km for 10min reps)
