    The Running Thread—2023

    ATTQOTD: If I am training for an event I usually have a least two workouts a week where am either doing speed intervals or a tempo run. I'm not in a specific training cycle now but I still seem to average at least one interval training cycle a week. Most of my easy runs on treadmills seem to...

    The Running Thread—2023

    So this took me down a fun rabbit whole this morning. It looks like Garmin's VO2 Max algorithms actually come from a company called FirstBeat technology. The specifics of the algorithm aren't public but it does seem to be tied to max heart rate. I found this blog which goes into more...

    The Running Thread—2023

    For me it's not really a matter of one being "better" than the other. Treadmill != Outside running I like running on a treadmill when I am recovering and I worried about additional impact on my joints, or when I am trying to do a hard interval workout at a pace that I haven't done in a while or...

    I ran on the greenway here today. They were a couple of people we saw running in Bibs. They decided to do their own virtual NY Half Marathon today since it was cancelled. I feel bad for all the people with cancelled races

    I agree with FFiGawi's active treadmill runs. Changing the pace definitely helps keep me more engaged. My biggest issue with the treadmill is that it mentally seems much tougher. When I am out I know that I have to get back to my car. Little changes in the terrain and surroundings engage...

    I was actually going to post the same thing. It's not an apples to apples comparison. Whether or not a person will actual get all the value from club33 the actual face value of the stuff included with the membership meets or exceeds the subscription stuff. The initial fee in the first year...

    Whether it was Randy's fault or whether they just wanted to release it in conjunction with MW it does feel like it was rushed out and isn't quite fully baked. What will be really interesting to see is if Disney: 1. Iterates based on market feedback 2. Just moves forward as is. 3. Pulls the...

    ATTQOTD: I've run with our Golden Belle. Getting the right pace is hard. My normal running pace is kind of between her walk and all out sprint. She's good for runs of up to about 5 miles and then she's ready to find a comfy chair and go back to sleep.

    I entered, but I'm getting a sponsor bib, so I will be doing it. That is really impressive.

    Marathon Weekend 2021

    I will be in for 2021. Sad family stuff made me cancel 2020 at the very last minute so I'll be swapping DD for DS. My guess is that I'll be doing Goofy ( and maybe the 10k if I can talk DD into that).

    Had a in interesting talk with a buddy about this. The race entry doesn’t seem that valuable now. If however, they brought the Disneyland races back and they were smaller they might be more likely to seek out. That could make this a little more value able. Between that and tiered pricing...

    I completely understand supply and demand. If they are selling out they should either charge more or make more. Either way they'd make more money. Disney has a huge number of stats people/ doing their pricing optimization so I'm sure they are aware of this. So far it hasn't stopped...

    My first thought was that the people who would benefit most from this are the EBAY trolls. $800 might be worthwhile to them to get early access to race merch to buy out the items they think are going to be popular.

    Marathon Weekend 2020

    One marathon weekend I did a massage with DW after the half before the full. I think DW did a more traditional relaxing massage and I did the sports, deep tissue (ow, ow, ow ) massage. I think I felt pretty good afterwards, but during it was pretty rough. I've also gotten post race...

    Marathon Weekend 2020

    It will be interesting to see how things shake out. I entered a 1:51 POT too. Based on the 2019 Goofy placements I would be in A with this years bib number. With Goofy having a smaller number of runners, they may not have similar corral distributions every year. So who knows. I'll just...
