I get 5-800 km of of my shoes, I'm generally pretty hard on heels, with a heel strike and a short left leg. I only run, and I do it close to 90km a week, so rotation, and discount shoes are the way.

This is a bit of navel gazing as I've now had my id.4 for just over a month. We've only managed a mere 350 miles. While we've had the car it's been enjoyable. Prior to pickup I had an l2 installed at home, since I live in a fast charger black hole. We had a major issue in the first week, and It spend the entire month of July at the dealer being serviced. It was pretty disappointing. The loaner wasn't the id.4 I purchased, and has really left me concerned about the longevity of this purchase. Any other new EV owners out their learning the ropes? I've yet to take my first big road trip in it because it was broken :(.

Details in the post. But I created the illusive, unofficial 18/63 full marathon training plan, which splits the difference between the 18/55 and the 18/55-70 plan. Feedback appreciated.

Please remove if against rules, but newegg has a 15% off up to 100 deal when using affirm payment method. I haven't used it so can't say about interest or fees, but understand it's related to ones own credit, and can be paid early. Ymmv.

It does bring some video cards into interesting ranges.

This is like common practice here.... talk about something. But don't actually link or post it

anyone got a archive copy, or gift pass to see it?

Edit, thanks I came here from elsewhere, reading now. my bad

-- its an interesting perspective. I don't have a coach who can check splits or plan my runs by time. I could plot and guess, and I'm sure I'd do well, might be interesting to see if I can produce results w/out a watch, but I do like it. Like earbuds / music u do you.

I'm planning on a spring full. I've successfully done pfitz 18 55 for two pr's, and 12 55. I like the plan, have not had issues with it, but in the quest to keep my training novel, and. Not increase the volume too much (55/60) is really as much as I have time, commitment, and recovery for at 45 with a family, job, and home life. Are there 18 or so week plans I can look at that have similar distance / intensity as the 18/55?

Also, if I do 18/55 again there are a number of tune up races which are always plotted for Saturdays.... Why? Almost no races are on Saturday. From a training plan perspective shouldn't they know this and design a plan with regular racing in mind? How do you all deal with these Saturday tune up races. In the past I've just done individual tt's with a target time on a known race course where it's more accurate that watch based 'gps' distance. This way I'm simulating the 6.3/13.3 that happens in real races and not the shortest distance that watch based tt's can do.

This isn't your situation, but this is how we did it while living very paycheck to paycheck. Plan and budget. We had a plan for everything. It hurt, but we planned our store trips, our meals were the sales and manager specials. We knew how much gas we were buying and which kid had birthdays and gifts to buy for, and we shopped ebay gift cards and scrapped by. We also made hard decisions, and it sucked. We cut cable, and other non essentials, we almost never went out. We were able to plan a path out, we refinanced our house, by taking a title loan on my car. We consolidated our cc debt.

What I'm trying to say is, you find a way. Maybe you can work towards a promotion, or a new career. Or find a different living situation which would be cheaper to help sort it out. Try not to lose hope, try to find a path to prosper. I'm pulling for you.

There has to be some numbers around this...

[-] m750@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Having goals, but also realistic expectations. Knowing that you can't got from 0 to full throttle w/out hurting yourself.

For my, in 2014, I had an itb issues which caused me to dns my first marathon, I found I could not run w/out pain for a long time. I was hurt, crying. I took time off, and got the leg functioning right again. Restarted very slowly. Ran 1200 miles that year starting with 1-2 mile runs 3 x a week, lots of short distance miles. The way I got back was avoiding getting injured by over during it. I set a 2016 goal of a marathon, but I built my base over 12 months.

Good luck, but train smart

It's possible that we could reduce regular use, yet allow those with accibility issues to continue to use the alternative. This can work in tandem to help address the real problem accumulation of single use plastics. Not using a straw is a valid solution for the majority of use cases.
