Anyone help dig me out of this pit?
Igaduma replied to Klonk's topic in Running, Swimming, Biking, Walking, Hiking
what are you starting from? How far can you run right now? -
shameless copy of my post in the woot room: Take a look at the progress bar in my signature and notice that it's full! I ran 30 minutes for the first time today. I didn't run 5km like I was supposed to. 30 minutes running + 5 minutes walking added up to 5.05km at an average speed of 8.6km/h. That's close enough for me. I'll get there in the future. The run was by no means fun. But it went reasonably ok. I wanted to quit for the first time at around 15 minutes. Pushed through. It went ok for a while. Then I wanted to give up again but I noticed I only had a minute and a half of running left. So I told myself "ok, you can go home now, as long as you do it running". If I had run any slower, I would have been going backwards but I did keep running! And here we are. I finished the program I was following and I ran 30 minutes. Guess it's time to start looking for a running shop to buy me the shoes I promised myself as a reward if I keep this up for a couple of weeks.

First date in two years... advice needed
Igaduma replied to The Ox King's topic in Rebel Army Base Camp
follow-up skills on THEIR part medieval practices are... medieval. He doesn't require her to be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen either (I hope), she can pick up a phone just as well as he can. -

Igaduma replied to The Ox King's topic in Rebel Army Base Camp
Well, I disagree she stood him up twice it's her turn to make an effort it has to come both ways or not at all. ofcourse, I'm single. Very uncompromising. If it's not "fair", it has to end, the sooner the better. So perhaps I'm not the best source of advise. I just feel, that especially in the beginning, it's important to set the right tone for the relationship. It has to come both ways. -
Well, if you need painkillers to be able to sleep... I'd say it's worthy of some medical attention

I'm more of a geek than a nerd...

I will now have to try and imagine someone poledancing to Wagner. Thank you very much for ruining my productivity for today. -
Go run in the morning (like really really early). this has some advantages: - it's cooler then - you're still "fresh" you're not awake enough yet to worry about pain and tiredness - you're most likely alone. If you're ashamed about shuffling... there's no one to see you I listen to podcasts (people talking, no music) while I run. I need to focus on the podcast, which means I'm not focusing on being tired or pain or whatever. Try to run on soft ground if possible (a trail in a park or something). Running on a road is much harder.

forgot to mention: sunday I went for a 30km walk. got really sunburnt. So I slept rather badly. monday morning I went running. In stead of doing a repeat of last week, I tried 30 minutes... and failed. Tomorrow I have to go run again. I'm in doubt as to what to do: 1) do what the schedule tells me to do (10-12-12) 2) try 30 minutes again first world problem I suppose

So I'm reading/learning about memory palaces. I've known about the concept for some time. Decided now is the time to put it into practice. Meditating this morning didn't work at all. Sat down, waited for my mantra to come... but my memory palace came pushed it aside, waited for the mantra... the memory palace came pushed it aside, waited for the mantra... the memory palace came forced my mantra upon myself. mantra, mantra, mantra, shoppinglist I memorized last night, mantra, mantra, shopping list again, mantra, shopping list backwards, mantra, mantra, mantra, a string of unrelated words I saw in a ted talk about memory like two years ago (impressive that I still know it though), mantra, mantra, mantra, shoppinglist and then I just gave up. When I go shopping though... if I forget something, I'm going to be sooooo upset with myself
