How I know if I'm keeping up with my runs

CrispyLiberal · 2012-05-24T11:35:10.574037+00:00

....You can do that? I was thinking about trying it just yesterday actually because I went on a run from my girlfriends house and I had forgotten my proper running socks. Does it damage the inside of the shoe at all or make them smell more?

CrispyLiberal · 2012-05-24T09:01:21.009962+00:00

Yep, happens to me every time. The trick is to keep the different socks on different sides of your sock draw. I even put a cardboard divider in the middle.

Ergh, there are some real uptight douchebags on this sub, so what if someone posts something funny and humorous that is still extremely relevant? If you want nothing but deadly serious running discussion then head over to "serious, professional runners forum - no fun allowed". This is Reddit FFS, it's supposed to be light hearted and fun.

You could see exactly what this was from the thumbnail, if you don't like it don't click, move onto the next link. It's hardly having a negative impact on your /r/running experience is it? There are plenty of posts on here that don't interest me, you know what I do? I skip over them and look for one that does. It's only a problem if you make it a problem.

To think that if we got rid of that rule that this place would become a complete "memefest" is utter bullshit.

That guy obviously found that situation humorous, thought it would make us laugh, went through all the trouble of making that pic, uploading it, posting it and then you just go and shit all over it, probably make him feel like a dick when all he was doing was trying to share something nice with us.

Come to /r/running, we have cake. :]

To be honest I've never done any stretching before or after my runs. I usually start my runs pretty slowly and don't over exert myself until Ive gone at least a mile in and I'm well warmed up.

Congratulations! Looks like you enjoyed yourself :). How did it go? Were you happy with your time?

Just to improve for now, my aim is to enter some races around September time.

Oh hi fellow infinite person.I'm a beginnerish runner looking to improve me 5k time(currently around 29:30). I usually just run 5k 3 or 4 times a week. But I was wondering what sort of routine I should start doing?

Booyaa! I live in London and I'm currently looking for work. Just looked on their site and they are hiring! This would be like my dream job lol.

No...THIS is the RIGHT way to open a pomegranate. You will still have trouble separating the seeds from the skin with that method. This way you end up with a full bowl of just the delicious fruit, that you can then simply eat with a spoon.

Just because you can't do it today, doesn't mean you won't be able to do it some day.

There is just as much variation in all the other groups. South west Asians and south eastern Asians are all very very dark. Google "Sri Lanken people", the population of Sri Lanka alone is 20 million, twice that of the Pacific Islands. There are BILLIONS of ridiculously dark people in that region of southern Asia. The Pacific Islanders are such a small group that they are irrelevant. Also, like I said, it's not just to do with the darkness of the skin, if it was black people would be doing 10 times better than everyone else and they aren't. I'm sure they took into consideration how similar those groups were genetically.

If you were to take out all the Pacific Islanders completely I doubt it would make much difference to the figures anyway, it's not like if you took them out Asians would be up their with white people. Especially seeing as how pacific Islanders are such a small group. The population of the Pacific Islands is 10 million, the population of Asia is 4.1 billion. If it was all even you're talking about less than 0.2% of that group....Why are you making such an issue out of 0.2% of that group?

Well I don't think darkness of the skin is the only factor, seeing as black have much darker skin than Asians but they seem to have pretty similar results. Not to mention the fact that there wouldn't be much point giving them their own group because there aren't many Pacific Islanders anyway, the population of the Pacific Islands is 10 million where as the population of Asia is 4.1 billion.

Many Asians are extremely fair.

I think you're forgetting that India is part of Asia.

Yea, that was one of the reasons I decided to do this, I thought the /r/bicycling ones were just a bit....too much, if you know what I mean?

What I've gathered from most people in the other thread is that they dont even want the word Reddit on there, a lot of people don't even want Snoo. I think what most people want is something kinda basic but classy with "/r/running" or "runnit" on it.

Well for now we're just going to be dealing with the actual design, then people can download that, take it to the custom clothing printing place/website of their choice and get one made up for themselves. So really you could get the design put on whatever you like.

Once we have got the design sorted we could possibly have a production thread if anyone knows any good places that can produce good quality custom sports clothing. That stuff is gonna be really complicated as far as how we could deal with the payment and postage etc so we'll leave that till last.

The birthing experience varies massively, just because you felt a certain way doesn't mean everyone does.

It was all just one big mass of pain.

Some women don't even feel much pain during child birth.

Nah, they just put his head onto some other baby that had its body ripped off.
