I mean, it increases again when you lose fitness, but it stays larger than it was before you got fit, so it remains lower than it was initially

In my case, when I was at my peak, I'd be in the high 30s, low 40s. When I lost my fitness, I sat in the mid to high 40s.

Before I took up distance running in the first place, my RHR was in the high 50s.

One interesting thing that articles like this don't often mention, is that when your resting heart rate drops due to fitness, it tends to stay lower even if you lose your fitness later on.

I haven't got this game yet, but if I'd have known it was the same folk that were behind Telltales Walking Dead, I'd have grabbed it weeks ago! That game was one of the most powerful experiences I've had in gaming, so I'm looking forward to this one much more now!

Who said it would be entirely men?

First hand experience

'cause I know I feel welcome, and not completely othered and invalidated when I'm forced to play on a team that is otherwise entirely men, whom have athletic advantage over me

Like, a Colombian, or an Argentinian or a Costa Rican?

Honestly, all the time. They're awesome folk!

Meh. I perform much better at shorter distances. Even at my peak, my long distance runs were under the expectations of where they should be based on my 5km time. Even the genetic test I did said I'm built more for running fast 5kms than I am for running marathons and half marathons.

Yet for all of that, if I'm running an event, I'm going to run a half marathon, because I just don't enjoy 5km as much as I enjoy long distances. Unless it's a parkrun, it's not worth getting out of bed for a 5km running event.

Speaking from my own experience, I would say it's effective, but not fast, but leads to better results in the end.

None of that is why I use it though. I simply enjoy it more this way.

I've been learning Spanish though a similar method

On the chance that you're engaging honestly, rather than just trolling...

WhatsApp, Roblox and Signal all run fine in Linux.

This is the ProtonDB page for Roblox. https://www.protondb.com/app/2181790. ProtonDB is a database that assesses how well windows games run under linux, and in this case, Roblox is Gold rated.

There are numerous WhatsApp apps and wrappers that run under linux, and Signal has an official Linux version found here https://signal.org/download/linux/

This is a post processed cropped version of one of the original stills. I have a hard time believing there's an object behind it...

What sort of additional information?

It's less then 24 hours before Tropical Cyclone Alfred hits. The sun is out, the wind is calm and it's a beautiful day.

This girl was screaming the whole way as she came in for landing, and she gave me a beautiful reflection as she did!

Round the Bays (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

I arrived in Wellington yesterday, and at parkrun I discovered Round the Bays is on on the next day (now today). So I signed up for my first ever international race, with zero prep. It starts in 90 minutes. What could go wrong? :p
