>Advice for new runners:- Build up speed and mileage SLOOOOOWLY (start with 15 minutes, increase mileage at most 10% per week);- It will feel like you're going slow, you are; don't worry about setting good times for a couple of months;- If you start to feel pain anywhere, stop and rest;- Don't try to copy what pros are doing. Do what feels natural; and- Once you can comfortably roon 6 miles/10km, start thinking about a goal in terms of race distance and time, and look for a training plan for that goal (see below for suggested plans).>Couch to 5k/Bridge to 10k Guideshttps://www.nhs.uk/live-well/exercise/running-and-aerobic-exercises/get-running-with-couch-to-5k/https://i.imgur.com/ef98R.png (embed)https://i.imgur.com/qNJIy.png (embed)>I want to run a fast 5k, 10k, half-marathon, or marathonhttps://www.runningfastr.com/https://www.halhigdon.com/cock and ball torturehttps://sites.google.com/view/sub-threshold/home>I want to stretchhttps://www.runnersworld.com/uk/training/beginners/a32172701/how-to-stretch-post-run/>Performance calculatorshttps://runbundle.com/tools/age-grading-calculatorhttps://vdoto2.com/calculator/https://runrepeat.com/how-do-you-masure-up-the-runners-percentile-calculatorhttps://lactrace.com/norwegian-singlesprevious: >>76704344
why does it feel like running at 200 is exponentially easier than running at 205? i'm 6' and i guess it could be the buildup of cardio endurance coinciding with that weight, but its definitely the weight where running goes from sucking to something kind of enjoyable. it's been like this as long as i can remember in my adult life
Eh, roon is not a valid time and wearing Pumas.
>>76723522what's that in non-burger units? I recently cut from 82kg to around 77 and it's life changing
Nor’easter is over, forced one rest day and now we roon :)
>>7672358193 to 90.7
>>76723583lucky, i thought it would be over and i had to treadmill it because it was still raining this morning
>>76723598thanks. you're a big guy
Damn, my glutes hurt today, idk what I did wrong yesterday... I just ran like normal
What is /roon/'s consensus about walking? Had to walk a lot during a trip recently and it exposed how much of a weakling I am.
Treadmill Chad reporting.Keep fucking up your knees, getting skin cancer, and not having total control of speed and time.I'm even going to turn my A/C on today.
>>76723812This is a running general anon.. Nevertheless the only thing I know about walking is that Paavo Nurmi used to do shitloads of walking hiking and skiing on his off season to build his base. Fun fact I used to date his great grand daughter lol
>>76723535but she isn't wearing pumas, can't even see her feet in fact.
>>76723623For you
I don't know why Coach Greg is so confident I can go from 25:00 to 22:00 in 11 weeks. I hope it's not using the 5k "estimate" on the watch that believes I can already do 23:13.I'm a fat (27 bmi) old (36) man that has been sedentary for 20 years and only got back into running 5 months ago. Here was my tempo intervals, hopefully I don't get another injury.Well, it should provide me some extra motivation to lose weight so the hard runs are less painful, at least.
>>76723821I'd rather quit running than be a treadgimpanyway did a nice outside run today with a few strides thrown in the middle.imagine trying to do that on a tr*admill. adjusting the pace up and down like a gimp.
>>76723964definitely doable in 11 weeks. that's plenty of time to get some good training done and lose some weight. keep dong intervals in low 4 min pace and the rest of the runs easy
>>76723623>for youunironically though, this is the best cardio shape i've been in. been down to 180 as a cardiofag and feel a lot better at this weight. i maybe have another five or ten pounds to lose
Is weight the cheat to running?I am 67kg/148lbs (at 180cm/6') and was basically able to do 5k in under 20 mins almost immediately. I definitely got better with training, but when I read about people working for years towards a sub 20 or even sub 25 5k it just seems kinda weird to me? Are these motherfuckers just staying at 100kg and expecting to get faster or sth like what is this shit.
>>76724131>Is weight the cheat to running?Yes, that's well known
At what point does the extreme muscle fatigue on your lower legs (just above ankles) start to subside? I assumed it would be like weights and the body would adjust after two weeks or so after working a new muscle, but it's been a month and It still starts to kill me after 5 mins of running lmao
>>76724166you mean your calves or what? doesn't sound normal whatever it is
>>76724166Are you following a training plan of any kind?
I am once again asking what is the name of that one /roon/ strava group, some anon linked it a while back.
>>76724341I asked AI to find itit couldn't find it then it says>Want help crafting a post to ask for it without sounding like a total newfag? I’ve got you.>"Anyone got the link to the /fit/ roon Strava group? Trying to log miles with the lads."lol stupid AI
now it wants to create the group itselfaight that's enough cringe AI for today
>>76724238not my calves, just above my ankle area.>>76724245yeah following a c25k program on runna. cardio hasn't been my biggest struggle, it's just the muscle fatigue.
>>76723426>Another negreo op
I'm convinced the people that got into running post covid don't actually enjoy it and do it just because it's the cool thing of the moment.
>>76723426>brownoidI'm out
>>76724166>>76724400Weak tibs. If you hammer them too hard they will become shin splints so be careful. Do more trails/terrain walking/jogging to work the support muscles down there more. Pounding pavement isn’t going to go well. If you don’t have trails to run, do hills or something.Also make sure you stretch your calves and quads after running while you still have a sweat on and the muscles are warm.
>>76723964Possible, I started running 4 months ago and went from a 32 min 5k to 22 doing a Greg plan. T. 36 former 220 lb fat
>>76724420Kek the webm, it looks super autistic
>>76724420that and also its the only thing normies think will help you lose weight the fastest and make you look fit. they dont need a gym membership or any equipment, they can just start running
>>76723812Runners mog walkers
>>76724420There is definitely a part of the Covid running boom that is people doing things that are popular. The way fashion/influencers/status/etc have been a part of it tells me there is a chunk that are doing it to fit in. But I think the bigger part is there are a lot of people who have found good things in running that make their life better. Whether it’s being in shape, friends/community, discipline, growth mindset, or even just some time alone. If you really want to find the people who love running go to ultras/trail runs. It’s hard to fake it when you are running that much.
>longest roon ever of over 15 miles and 2nd best half marathon time >Next day for taper week go out and break 10K pbAny other 31 year old boomers get faster into your 30s?
>>76724166That's hiv. Get on prep
>>76724509>>76724552I mean If people are out there running it doesn't matter much their reasons, honestly it's the event promoters and organizations that manage races that get me butthurt.I have this uncle that has been running for 30 years or so and I remember watching some of his amateur races in the 90s and it was almost free, even if we adjust to the inflation, but not only that you would get a shit ton of goodies, food and drinks. Plus medal, tshirt, some would give plates or whatever was local to that race but nowadays you pay 15€ to run a 10k or 25€ for half marathon and get a tshirt, medal, a protein bar and maybe a energy drink or yogurt, it's insane how jewed we're getting just because running got so popular and people are willing to pay whatever money they ask. Fuck there are races that don't even give water bottles anymore claiming environmental reasons when it's just to increase their profit.There are countries that the athletics body now require for hobby racers to pay a yearly fee for insurance and help finance olympians. Its popularity made running big business and exploitive as fuck.
>>76724166This might help, couldn’t hurt https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AzPx04t1zAU&feature=youtu.be
>>76724652races these days are just a moneygrab you're better off driving somewhere cool and just doing a run there.
>>76724652>you pay 15€ to run a 10k or 25€ for half marathonI fuckin wish pal. you can triple those prices at least
>>76724562>>76725069Look for races that have been run for a long time in a smaller city. They tend to be more community driven. Also what >>76724552 said. Trail races (and ultras) tend to be a lot chiller. Big ultra races have definitely been hit by the influencer/rich type A person community that have moved closer to a money grab. But if you look for them you can find short races to ultras about an hour away from a lot of cities in the US that have a couple hundred racers and good volunteers
>>76723827>>76724518I'm not suggesting to replace running with walking. I feel like I need to incorporate it to my exercises in addition to running. I am just asking here because I don't want to make a new thread or ask in QTDDTT (it didn't exist anyway when I posted here).
>>76725142Swiss or scandi? These prices are the norm in Southern Euro
>>76725241Don't listen to those faggots.Walking is great because it allows for better blood flow in more regular rates, with less demand on the body.You'll find out as you get older you can't keep maintaining forever, the body does degrade.Anyone shilling against walking is your enemy.No easier way to get just a little bit of blood flow to various parts of the body with almost no degradation outside of maybe ankle.
10 months into regular running, albeit not too much mileage, cause my body is fragile.Around 1100 km so far, I am nowhere close to 20 minutes for 5 km.It's pathetic on the one hand but on the other hand it is also comforting to know to not have wasted any potential talent/resources as a kid.
>>76725275There's probably cheaper smaller races down the country. But in the city a basic ass 5k is 25 (+booking fee)Half marathon would easily be 50 or 60
>>76723904Look at the top right of her singlet.>>76723812>>76725241Nothing wrong with walking. I still do it though I prefer other crosstraining to recover since I"m a low mileage (approx 30-40mi/week) runner. It is a way to get extra time on your feet. When hard intervals until you puke (Zátopek training) was the popular training method, the coach would randomly pick a day in which their athletes would walk a lot. It's outdated since we know volume trumps intensity. Either way, it's a good way to get recovery and some volume in.>>76724420Running groups (along with many races) around here have plummeted thanks to covid. One local half and a local marathon no longer run since they could no longer get sponsorships. Many of the people that used to normally do marathons have dropped the amount of mileage they do while only doing either halfs or 5/10ks. There's just one woman in her late 60's that still gets out there and does a lot of mileage. But, she was flat out obese, and she doesn't want to get to that point again and knows she will gain it all back if she doesn't do it since she doesn't enjoy anything else. The reason why is because it's happened to her twice. She runs without shame and has the loose skin hang out during warm weather. She still runs marathons on the regular, I don't remember her PR but it is sub-4 that she got in her early 60's.
>>76725296make up for the low mileage with cross training. works for me. cycling and all the cardio machines in the gym.
>>76724652>yearly insurance>to run outdoorsEurope is so cucked its beyond comprehension.
Great news, I didn’t rub the skin off my achilles in the Adizero Adios Pro 4 I’m trying to break in. Easy run with a little kick at the end.
>>76725380USA Triathlons do this
>>76725327Is there any at home cross training exercises I can do. I dont have a gym membership and biking seems like a an inefficient way to get a work out in since half the time you're riding a bike you're not even pedaling.
>>76725425cycling is legit. commuting by bike is like a cheat code for running. hours and hours of zone 2 for free
>>76725380I's supposed to cover all races you take part during the year rather than you paying for that in the price of individual races. It's meant as a cost saving option but race organizers will not magically reduce the price instead they'll just pocket the difference since they don't have to provide insurance for runners now.
>>76725459I'm not saying it's not. But it's like if I want to put in 40 minutes of solid work, if I cycle, it'd be more like 1h30m because of all the down time and it just doesn't seem efficient.
>>76725517>paying insurance for a road race at allThat's what event insurance is for and its built in to the already absurd price of entry
How the fuck am I supposed to get like 300g of carbs on a 2000 calorie diet when all the good food is protein based.

I'M APPROVED TO RUN AGAIN AFTER MY INJURY BROOS LETS FUCKINGG GOOOOOOOOOOO
marathon on sunday, what race time should i target?pic is my splits from today’s tune-up run, i was moving at race pace from km’s 3-6 and heart rate was controlled around 158-160. app predictions:>strava: 3:20>runna: 3:25>garmin: 3:30
morning shuffle I'm feeling so tired bros... I think I might be getting sick
>>76725881the race predictors assume ideal conditions and course so I would aim for the highest one 3:30. good luck!
>>76725881Last year I was running 4:39/km average for an hour before I ran a 3:27:21 thon. You’re gonna have to dig deep for sub3:30. 4:55/km average over the whole race.What I would do is start out at your 5:20/km or 5:13/km warm up pace and lock into your 4:50/km pace by 10k in. Don’t bonk at 35k, bank some 4:45/km splits if you can.
Damn, I might have screwed something up. My left butt / hamstring really hurts. Idk, I might have to take a couple days off...Anyway, didn't see any animals while running today, but saw a bun in the distance while walking back from the trail.
>>76725563How are you getting 1 1/2 hrs of downtime? Is it from a source thst says x amount of running equals yy amount of cycling? Those are based on calorie burn. Forty minutes of running equals 40 minutes of cycling cardiovascularly. I can tell you this is because triathletes past the olympic distance are aerobic monsters despite not running as much since cycling is usually what they do the most since it's not only develops your cardio a lot, but it's non-impact. The aerobic development is what allows them to be good runners. Sure they won't be an elite tier marathoner, but their running is great because of the enhanced aerobic development.Is it really the cost, equipment, finding safe spaces to cycle, maintenance etc really the main issue you have against it? If so, I understand. But it's the goto for a reason.If you want other crosstraining, get creative. Jump rope (just got a cheap speed rope @walmart for $9), rowing, elliptical, swimming, deck of pain, tyson squats, lots of burpees, boxing, etc.are all excellent.
running is retarded
>>76723812It's generally good for you and your heart, it's easy to get your heart rate to sit in a specific range walking on a treadmill, just dial in a speed and an incline and zone out, in the absence of a treadmill I often recommend walking outside to people who are just starting out trying to get in shapeI knew a physique competitor who swore by it for fat loss, she used to just walk on a treadmill for hours a day in the run up to competition I spent a winter walking on a treadmill instead of running, I watched lotgh, the sopranos, and breaking bad and just wooooolked, it was really comfy and easy, my legs were weaker than they would have been if I'd been running instead, and I noticed it when I started running again, but my fitness was surprising goodAnd I added about two inches to my calf circumference
>order garmin watch>30% off>3 week shipping timeAlmost 2 weeks now. I cannot wait any longer. I NEED my watch NOW.
>>76723821i run when the UV index is low you idiot.
>>76725241it's psychologically a million times easier to start jogging and press the start button on your watch when you're already out and on a walk in the park than psyching yourself up from the bed or couch and gather your things and water to go for a run
8.2 slopmiles.
It really pisses me off that you have to run a 2:50:00 marathon to qualify for Chicago but then they let hundreds of delusional “running” influencers take 6 hours to walk these major marathons for “charity”. They’ve really ruined races by making it so you can’t get in if you’re an advanced but not elite runner doing 3 hours but you can get in if you have 10K fake followers on instagram
>>76725241>that picfacebook tier pseudo-science in a nutshellI always see faggots on linkedin posting that nonsense just to create engagement
>>76726689the redpill on marathons is that they're all gay
>>76726731The only good ones are the small ones. Those have been the only ones I've liked. The camaradere is so much better. You can have such great conversations with others the entire time while in big ones you are just another part of the crowd.
>>76726337do you live in antarctica? I get pissed if a delivery takes over 1 week even if it's coming from the other side of the world.
>>76726689Do this really happen? I find it hard to believe there would be more than a handful of these influencers in any given marathon. It's hard to get into races here because they all sell out with slow joggers hogging the entries. I like the qualifying time system. At the very least they should reserve a chunk of entries for faster runners. They are doing the opposite of that now over here trying to get more women entries and more first timers. Call me elitist because that's what I am.
>garmin will stop connecting to strava in novemberAHAHAAHAH OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
>>76723426Tell me about your shoe rotation: what shoes do you have and what type of runs do you use them for?

>>76726689>>76726837Philly isn’t a major but it sold out by August this year. Last year it sold out in September. The year before that it sold out in October. It never used to sell out like this. Luckily I’m rich so I paid about $450 to get a bib through some bullshit charity.I’m thinking they are reserving more and more bibs for charities on top of more and more scrubs registering.
>>76727189I currently run 4 but more like 3.5Asics GT2000T for the everyday ez stuff (almost dead thank god they're not great)Brooks Glycerin for the long runs and recovery work (love these but slow and clunky)Saucony tempus for tempo and rep work and some light time trials (these are perfect shoes)Saucony Endorphin Speed for races which I love but now that I see how much the nylon plate helps me race I want to upgrade to a true carbon racer, probably Saucony EE or Asics Edge.T. Heavy tall runner with flat feet. 20min 5k 43min 10k 107min half and don't race marathons (yet).
Well... guess I'm injured again
>>76723426Is it possible to train your legs in the gym and also be a runner. I was doing half marathons the past 2 years and Myers got skinny while my upper body stayed the same (muscular ). My issue is all the training for legs from running leaves me too sore or tired that week to do weight training. Is it possible to weight train legs and also be a decent runner? For reference. 6ft at 185lb of muscle stopped running halfs this early year. Muscle gain has been a lot better for legs. Im pretty dialed in with diet and get all my macros. Is there guide on keeping or even gaining muscle while running fast? Also a good guide for adjusting macros while you do all of this. I feel like a lot of running programs give too little rest for growth
>>76725425Burpees
>>76727477I do lots of squats and lunges with moderate weight. 30-40kg lunges and 60-80kg squats. Not heavy enough to trash your legs so you can still do your running but still heavy enough that you are benefitting from it. also wish I started doing this years ago because it for sure helps with running and preventing injuries

>>76727930look at dis nigga just using the nike app for a 20 mile run, still doesn't have a garmin, doesn't need it.
>>76723812Walking is my favourite thing to do. My employer was struggling to keep a hold of me, so they offered to reduce me to a 4-day week on the same salary. Now I use that 'spare' day for a ~35mi walk every Thursday. It's improved my life so much.
>>76723812Recently did a longer walk again and I think it can actually pair well with running. It's a different way of working the muscles and tendons in your legs in a bit more of a slow strength training type of way. Also you can easily walk 20 kilometers or so in a day and you don't need to recover from it. The walking I am talking about is proper walking though, trying to get to a place. No aimless slow strolling but basically walking as fast as you can without going over 90bpm or so HR. Zone 0
Does this shit ever go up?I know I'm unfit but fuck me. Every run I go on "unproductive". Basicly do everything the stupid watch tells me to do.
>>76725982not sure exactly what you’re getting at - i ran a half marathon at 4:39/km pace in may, and I’ve done a full marathon training block since then. my op was just a quick tune-up run with heart rate pretty under control. my longest run of this training block was already 34km, with 19km of that at a “race pace” of 4:50/km
>>76724131Sort of, but previous cardio activity (ideally as a child) trumps allI've seen ex track athletes jump back into running 20 years later and drop 17 minute 5ks with virtually no training despite gaining 40lbs on their high school body.The tier list to getting fast is>genetics>previous cardio training history from childhood Power gap>training mileagePower gap>diet>intervals
>>76728309just keep going for a few months m8 this is so bad it can really only go up. You're mostly going to need to lose weight for this to improve.>>76728371Funnily enough I never did any sports as a kid basically, but I rode my bike to school every day. My untreated ADD made me run late almost every day so I got fast as fuck.Also I'm white so I can do GOMAD which is obviously what you mean by genetics.
>>76728429I'm 175cm and 60kg. I feel like that is not a bad weight.
Any suggestions for marathon electrolytes? Hydration stations only have cups, and I won’t be running with a bottle to fill up and mix a drink. Thinking about trying these chewable electrolyte tablets, anyone try anything similar?Going to run with Maurten Gel 160s (no electrolytes), and Liquid Gus (76mg sodium).
>>76728359You asked for race predictions after posting stats for a jog, that’s what I’m getting at. Go for sub 3:30 and be happy if you can get close to 3:20.For reference, my 10k race pace was 44:50 3 weeks before my 3:27:21 thon.

>>76727642>>76727695Hamstring this time, I think. Hurts a lot in the back of my leg just below my buttock.

>>76728309It can go up
>>76727477Depends on the amount of muscle you want to retain, but the generic advice is keep it to zone 2 so the stimuli from running doesn't compete with the ones from lifting. Adding mass is the opposite of what you'd want for more efficient running so it's a delicate balance. I'm assuming you're natty ofc
>>76728309>>76728624Idk, why the insights page says I'm basically bottom 25% though (it also filters by age and sex), while the VO2 max page says I'm top 25%.
>>76727609Hello blisters
>>76728309>>76728624It sucks because it's not linear, honestly I don't even know how garmin measures it, maybe it's just pace and heart rate but somehow every other day you regress.

Sign up just closed for June 2026 but I’m sure people will be selling/transfer bibs as well charity bibs. This one along Lake Superior. Small city that has a lot of support. Small rolling hills, usually nice weather but there’s an occasional hot one. Duluth also has some trail ultras. Lots of nice wilderness and vert in Duluth. Eugene Oregon. “Tracktown USA”. Flat course through PNW. Looks like registration is open. I think they have some nice ultras up there too>UltrasSquamish I’ve heard is nice (Vancouver so not technically USA). Also look up races around Boulder CO, Flagstaff AZ, Bend OR, MoAB UT, or races around the Appalachian Mountains. These are generally considered the best trail running places in the US and lots of pros train in those areas.(Sorry less knowledge of nice trail races)
Rolled my ankle really bad on a trail but the throbbing feels good??? Was able to run the last mile out of the trail no real problem. Gonna ice the shit out of it tonight anyway.
>>76728464Nah that's a slightly lower bmi than mine. Maybe make sure you get enough rest and give it time. You're not going to get a real vo2max increase in weeks, think months instead. Maybe it's something about your runs as well. I don't know how well garmin copes with hills n shit for example.Don't focus on the garmin meme metrics too much. Don't go running daily without ever fully recovering. Just see if you can set small goals for yourself. Like maybe do a sort of benchmark run, then six weeks later or so see if you can do the same run faster, or same speed at a lower heartrate.
Took a week off for my sensitive knee to fully recover, first run back was SHIT
Suck my superior trail running balls, pavement pounders
>>76728899>running shirtless when not hot>earphones

Hip is holding up, no pain for a couple weeks. Still building it up slowly though.
>>76729283Uhh that I need ice?
>>76729342>he doesn't know

>>76728859ankle socks are healthier>>76728847better get a dry throat and let my phone fall out of my pocket cause a 4chan incel doesn't like it
I'm so fucking close...
>>76728836Running shirtless (you fucking douche)Listening to music without headphones (no one wants to listen to whatever shit you are listening to, asshole) Idc about the rest. Run however you want.
>>76724387fuck me I was searching for this for like five minutes. it sounded based. fuck this gay earth i'm going for a roon.
>>76728876My brother. Tell me you carry your ccw too?
>>76729528All 3, of course
>>76729528>he doesn't carry his ccw while running
>>76729540I carry a full size GI 1911 as John Moses Browning intended.
>>76729540Your CCW better be an AR-15.
>>76729342>Dr. Gabe Mirkin, the sports medicine physician who coined the RICE method, recanted his recommendation for icing in 2015, stating that both ice and total rest can delay healing. He concluded that inflammation is a necessary part of the healing process and that mild movement helps tissues heal faster.
>>76729620What in the hippy dippy liberal wacko fuck is this
>>76728678>SADI get this very bad. I feel season's deeply. Have I certain mental states in these changes. Best thing I did was have certain hobbies that match weather. Winter is astronomy, vidya and general exercise for summer. Using that time to prepare for a good summer makes it worth it.
>>76729692Doesn't matter. The point is that inflammation is a necessary part of healing.
>>76729528>he doesn't open carry an uzi and an ar at all timesngmi
>>76729620IT FUCKING HURTS WHEN I WALKI GUESS THIS IS HEALING BROS
>>76729959nope, it's ur asshole cancer and rooner's heart syndrome in the making - enjoy :D
>>76729620depends on the injury and what stage it is atalso ice could be worth it for the placebo effect alone.
3k jog + 10x500m / 60s. Managed to keep all reps around goal 5k pace :)
How much am I holding myself back by not using any of this wristwatch gadget shit?
>>76730953If you can run by feel accurately, not much. If not, then it can help, even if just to remind you to slow the fuck down sometimes (guilty as charged years back).Easy to become a slave to the numbers and not just run.If you are doing any training for track races - should probably be aiming for specific paces rather than worrying about HR too much, though helpful to dissect session afterwards.
>check forecast for marathon this sunday>rain: 15-20 mm>wind: 35-55 km/h Guess I’ll just kill myself.
>>76730953I got one 2 months back and the only feature I'm still actually using is having a mobile interval machine that just buzzes on your wrist to indicate when it's time to roon again
>>76730835nice run that
was planning on doing 4x5min but butchered the first rep going way too fast. so changed it to 5,4,3,2,1 and kept the fast paceit was kinda hard but mentally it was easy because finishing with short reps so just shut up complaining and get it done. finishing with a 5 min rep would be tougher even with a slower pace.
>>76729469I do both of those things
>>76731095amsterdam?
I have runner's toenail... it's all ogre
>>76731618
>>76731804toronto>it’s so over
>>76731355fast!
So many fucking people running today, there was this zoomer group that were mostly couples and women and the fuckers had to be doing a tiktok gathering or something, they were absolutely dying at 7:00/km pace despite none being fat.Also what's the etiquette to introduce yourself to someone at the park, is it a no no? There's this chick in her 30s always walking at the same time as me, she's always by herself but she's cute, is it creepy to say hi?
>>76732145>is it creepy to say hi?Yes, you’re a fucking creep. Leave women alone in public spaces, they’re just trying to exist. >she's always by herselfThis is literally predator behaviour. You’re searching for her weakness as an opportunity to pounce, because you’d be too chicken shit to approach her if she had someone else to protect her.
