If taco trucks on every corner really would be a terrible thing, what kind of food truck on every corner would be best? I throw my vote behind arepa trucks.

Tanks have been throwing me off. I’m die-hard Heavy in TF2, but it doesn’t seem like OW tanks are as... tanky? So I’ve become a Tracer and holy shit is she fun

EXACTLY what a PT droid would say

I stand corrected, Chia Werth is pretty great

Earlier this year they had a Bryce Harper chia head promotion. Perhaps the best stadium promotion ever devised.

Yeah, I’m planning on making that hour of commute some sort of exercise time. Prob biking while the weather holds (gotta get that yearly mileage goal)

Do two cats count? Divisng a way to distract them from distracting me is going to take some work.

Looks like I’m getting a new job that I’ll be working at home for. Any good advice and tips on surviving it?

Easy answer seems to be that the 5k hasn’t had impetus to run that fast. As the article mentioned, the distance runs are usually more about tactical running, so if nobody else is running WR pace, why should you risk it?

Q from non-runner: do they know what the top time they can hit is? ie, they know they do X in training, which means they can hit X + 5% if competition if they run out of their minds? Obviously it’s a harder question in a long run than the 100m since the longer race is about more than pure pace. But would they have…

Toyobarus are left-up

I can only speak for fencers. We seem to age pretty normal, but we’re not a particularly out there body type.

No question, but one of the more fascinating things about the Olympics is seeing all of the variations of what a fit human body is. And not in the making fun of fat swimmers or [non athletic sport of choice] sense, either. Divers are all core, syncronized swimmers are ripped, and my crush of the games unexpectedly…

Poop Walker surely sees it as a point of pride (as we know runners do). Triatheletes bikes are covered in piss because they gotta go fast. Do any other sports have disgusting badges of honor?

The fairness argument is patently ridiculous. It’s not unfair that I’m a foot too short to be a credible NBA player. That’s just the fact of life that many elite athletics favor the genetic extremes: long arms of a swimmer, fast-twitch muscles for sprinters, even natural testosterone level for women (in some sports).

Last week my fencing feed was full of people saying the fix was in for Russian fencers.

re: fried okra, dump that cornmeal crust weak shit. Lightly cover those fuckers in a thin bit of flour, then fry the hell out of them. You get a little bit of flour breading, and the whole okra gets nice and deliciously crispy.

Would you rather have: a cyclist’s legs, a swimmer’s arms, a fencer’s butt, or a shooter’s belly?

We hate you for the disappearing act more than the lefty
