…Nope, fuck KT Tape

Came off almost immediately. Had to slow down to tear it the rest of the way off. I sweat way too much for that shit

With the shin splint, I have to do this shuffle stride to try to minimize impact, which is making my lower back tired

Time is probably still enough to place first, although ideally I’ll be safest if I can get it below 7:40ish

I dunno much about biking or swimming but that’s a sick pace esp budgeting for that total energy expenditure

As much as I love cardio, I’ve never been drawn to triathalons because was never able to get into biking (mountain or street) despite friends trying. I looked up and biathalons are a thing, but barely. And not all that into swimming either tbh, even though I do it 3x/week (when legs are sore)

Swimming is an upper body exercise. Biking is probably my favorite of the three but honestly swimming has really grown on me. It might be the single best workout I've done. I've swam 2+ miles in open water, I've never come out of the water and felt sore or tired. It's zero impact and I plan to mix it in until I kick the bucket.

For me, I would run every day if I could, but each run is always a warmup for full leg/core lift day, so legs are shot the next day. And rowing is dull unless out on a yak, so swimming is the only way I can cardio on days after running. Ultimate fav is cardio hiking tho which I do every fri/sat/sun morn

But yea as heavy as I am no one really recommends running anymore due to the impact, which might be what’s going on with these shin splints. Everyone both friends and online influencers are recommending cycling instead

Cycling is much lower impact than running to be sure. Rollerblading is actually a great low-impact cardio workout as well. Get some of those blades with the three giant wheels, I've seen some dudes absolutely cruising with them, looks fun as hell.

So does the average Zoomer.

They're pumped full of porn, high fructose corn syrup, and exist in a screen addicted society that they forgot how to exercise their largest sexual organ...the brain.

Sure, we have Netflix and DoorDash, but our dicks don't work.

Thanks Obama and the World Economic Forum.
