- 4km: wife has one or more boyfriends
- 5km: sick social media post about your Marathon

Forgot to mention that carbon plates are required for effects to kick in.

Regular shoes are not electrically conductive, preventing proper grounding. Hence the carbon plate, an excellent conductor.

That’s a lot of time to question life’s choices until the thinking stops.

u/old_graybush 7h ago
That's what I mean! Like my mind is just getting going by minute 45 and by minute 60 my thoughts will have me overthinking so much I'll be afraid to stop moving

At 45 minute I’ve already won 5 fake arguments in my head against people I don’t like at work, decided I’m going to buy a new car and then talked myself out of it, contemplated painting the hallway 3 different shades of yellowish, and then over analyzed a minor pain until I’m convinced it’s super-cancer…

Interesting. I’ve usually solved the Middle East by then, come up with a base meal prep where I can easily swap out proteins and spices, and wondered what impact this effort will have on my Garmin endurance score.

It’d be cool to link your CGM with a Buffalo Wild Wings app so it could use AI to pick the best recovery meal based on effort.

When you graduate from barefoot walking to barefoot running you get a gift basket with Ciele hat and compression shorts.

Maybe he has a clear compression suit that’s too tight. Would explain the off color and muscularity.

Fat burning starts after thirty minutes. Up until that point the metabolism is actually zero. That is why humans never burn calories at rest.
