    So I spent over an hour with a Mach-E GT Performance today and it's a really solid car. Handling is bit better than the MY, but you lose the ground clearance and it still drives like an SUV/Crossover. After $10k of discounts, OTD price was $70K. So ~$17K more than an M3 LR with the $2K performance update (which beats the Mach-E 0-60 time). And the M3 has 70-80 miles more range. 

    In summary, fuck no, I'm not spending $17K more for less performance and (mostly) less features. 

    Unlike some of you neckbeard fucks, I'm out in the streets actually looking for a car that meets my needs, that's all that matters to me. It's really easy to spend someone else's money, so you can eat all the dicks in the world and I'll buy the car that I want. 

    And I ain't even got a garage you can call home and ask my wife

    If they will let them play we can beat Purdue. I don’t know how much you’ve watched of Purdue but their big guy gets a lot of calls. Purdue coach yesterday was already planting the seeds. 

    Also they beat us by 4 to start the year and they shot 48 free throws.

    look, a world can't exist where Tennessee and Texas face each other in the tournament, because it's impossible for both Barnes AND Terry to lose in the second round. Somebody gotta lose in the first round.

    Probably both.

    Who wants to lose it more ????? Stay tuned !!!

  5. My fear of flying is unrivaled. I thought I was over it and booked a plane ticket to San Antonio when Tennessee was playing Texas AM and pussed out and drove anyways. My last flight to Brazil I had 9 beers at the airport and was still in shambles the entire time. This thread has not helped me at all!

    My PR for half marathon is a 1:45:40.  I'm slowly working my way down as I continue just getting mileage in and doing speed work every other week.  I've only really been running for three years.  I have a half marathon this weekend but I will probably just run it with my wife.

    We're heading out to Vegas at the beginning of August for the Revel Series Mt. Charleston downhill marathon.  Meeting some friends out there.  It's a Boston Qualifier but I won't touch 3:05:00 which is the cutoff for my age bracket.

    If you can run 1:45 you can run 1:30 if that is even a goal for you. You are on the right path. Make the easy runs easy and the hard runs hard. 

  8. When I pr’d my half last year ( 1:28) is when I started taking track workouts seriously ( as in doing them for the first time) and it all made sense on race day at mile 8. I knew then I was running a sub 1:30. It isn’t so much the lungs as it is the legs and the lactic acid. 

  9. I’ve been averaging 30-35 miles a week but have a half marathon coming up in late March and I want to hit another sub 1:30 so did a track workout today for the first time in 5 months and holy fuck it’s sucked. I ran 3 miles easy and did 8x 400 at race pace and then another mile slightly slower than race pace. My legs were shot and just reaffirms why speed work is so important. 
     

    I will knock this half out and then it’s the Chattanooga 70.3 in May and Chattanooga 140.6 in September.

    Novice runner here, just turned 50. Always been more of a gym strength/cardio guy. I thought it would be nice to maybe run a half marathon by the end of the year. I tested out where I am this morning. Ran 2 miles at an 11:30 pace. I thought that I probably could’ve gone three but that might’ve been pushing it. Any tips on building longer endurance? What should my weekly run pattern look like? I’m on the road a lot, but can still get runs in for the most part. I’ll hang up and listen. 
     

    don't worry about pace right now. Add a mile to your longest run every week.
