So I have been practicing 4x4 like crazy in preparation for the Drexel Open, with some fantastic results:

finished learning all of the Hiragana (jap alphabet) and can recognise them very easily.

Good luck. You'll have to practise hard, Japanese is very hard to learn (especially for us westerners).

It will also be hard since there won't be a WC10, since WC is every two years, so it would either have to be WC09 or WC11.

I'm getting worse at the mile as I'm getting too many cramps. If it hurts too much, my running gets very slow.

5th grade: 7:29
6th grade: 7:31
Now: 9:06 (My recent run wasn't timed, so I don't know if it's better.)

That's like me! Except my decline wasn't that extreme. I remember running a mile under 8min with ease in elementary school. Got 8:10 in 9th grade and then back to 6:38 in 10th. And then, I think I did around 6:25 a while ago. I didn't get a chance to try this afternoon. I shall try perhaps Monday. Can't wait to sub-6! I think at the moment, this is much more important than cubing.

Now you inspired me to beat my mile record of 6:44!!!

am I the only person on this forum who has run a sub-5 mile?(4:58) but that was about a year ago, during a workout for cross country. I could probably still break 6, but theres no was I could approach 5:00 in the shape I am in now.

accomplishment: I finally figured out what to be for halloween: Joe the Plumber. it is cheap, easy, and politically relevant! what more could I ask for?

Why are your scrambles <25 in length for both 2x2 and 3x3? Just because God's Algorithm is less than 25 moves doesn't mean it's logical to scramble it at the upper bound.
