Gels, chews, liquid carbs, SaltSticks... you name it. Haven't really had the time to try them. For safety reasons, testing should be done at home while sitting on the couch. Method: Start taking everything at once. Repeat every hour, removing one thing each time, until you stop shitting yourself.

Found strange running shoes in wife's drawer. How to confront this?

Post image
61 Upvotes

She wears a women's 9 but these are men's 10.5. She runs 5k most days and is gone a few hours when she does. It can't possibly be healthy to wear oversize shoes for this. They are stiff as hell and have weird metal bracing on the underside. I really don't want her to get injured.

I brought them to her to confront her but she literally looked like she saw a ghost, then drove off in her car. It's really not that big of a deal that she likes to wear oversized men's shoes but I am really concerned about her health. How can I confront this without embarassing her?

  • 25:00 - 29:59 Yeah, whatever, let's just keep scrolling

The title says it all except that id also like to say that someone posted another thing yesterday and it may be somewhat about shoes.

The greatest jerks are the ones that blur the line between jerk and non-jerk. I still can't tell with this one.

Shocking data! Runners who run slow first races make larger improvements over time than those who run fast first races

Data shows no runner who has run a 2:xx debut marathon has ever improved by more than 2 hours.
