Athletic Cubers

[EngiNerdBrian]

Ran a 3 mile race at Appleridge, Yakima, WA. In my face, got 43/150 racers with a time of 18:38.

6:12 pace is respectable. Keep it up.

Does anyone do ParkRun here? If so, what're your times?

I'm apparently doing flag football now.

My team won, I got one touchdown and that's all I contributed.

Besides cubing I do triathlon, and running or cycling competitions.

I've made it up to half Ironman (1.9km swim, 90km bike, 21.1 km run) in 5:05 hours.
I could never hit the 5 hour limit or do the full ironman and the last years i had many injuries and had to reduce my training.
I still do some competitions but just for fun now.

The crazy thing about cubing: In triathlon or running I was like 50% slower than world record, maybe 100% when I started.
In Cubing it's more like 500% now and 2000% after I started

Yes I do. I ran one last weekend in 18:58 and my best time 18:46

I used to but not now. My best time is 21:11 which I did 2.5 years ago

I forgot to mention I recently did a 5k cross country race on a rough hilly course and managed to get a sub 21.
Average pace was about 6:45 per mile

Our P.E teacher is a marathon runner. So basically, we only do running stuff. On Friday, we ran a 5K. I forgot my inhaler and got 22:39

The universe doesn't want me playing flag football today. I woke up and one of the muscles in my left knee wasn't doing too well and I thought I wouldn't be able to play, but after walking around for a bit it got better, so I figured I probably could make it as long as I took it easy. Well, while warming up I rolled my ankle . It's not too bad, and I'm not definitively out of the game, but I've got 40-60 minutes to fully recover and I don't know if I'll make it to the end of regulation unscathed.

I made it through the game without any major injuries let's gooooooo. Got two 2pt conversions. Although one of the better players on our team got ejected for yelling "SHUT THE **** UP".

One time when I was 8 I was playing softball and one of the kids got out and said s***. My coach then proceeded to tell him to "Use proper language" and "Shut the f*** up, go get on the f*****g bench". It made me very concerned about his job as a coach.

anyway thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Tomorrow, I am going to run a track mile. I am going for sub-5.

Based. I'm doing badminton in gym today, hopefully I do better than Monday because I was tired as hell for some reason (I might know why though) and I was playing horribly. Normally, me and my friend are equal, but I was wobbling and making weak hits constantly.

Good luck! I can barely get under 6, so you're already pretty fast.

I've had a few Cross Country meets these past few weeks, set a PR of 21.22!!
Also, I don't even know how but my team made it out of district in 6th (off from 5th by 1 pt), finished competing at regionals in 8th, so now we'll be racing at STATES this Saturday!!

Thx. My Varsity team is going to state this Saturday. We placed 3rd at districts last Saturday. I am not in varsity, but I still got to run the JV championships with a time of 19:03.
Good luck at state, my man. And keep running!

Bro you should definitely be running Varsity some time soon, you're faster than me! Good luck to you and your team!

Yeah, if I can just get my butt out of my chair and run during the winter... I am really lazy when it comes to running. I love it, but I get really lazy sometimes.

Yeah, I get it. I feel like running would be much more enjoyable without all the pressure and expectations from coach, so I'm exited for Saturday since it'll by my last race. After that, no more practice, so I can just run on my own peacefully...
