#1614836 The Workout Thread!

Posted by Jakerz on 08 August 2012 - 03:14 PM

Any 10k runners wanna share their training schedule with me?

I want to start trying 10k's, I've done many 5k's before

I'm able to run everyday until high school resumes


I posted in the advice thread but I'll repost it here incase you don't see it

I would alternate training days, some days do long runs, some days do shorter but more intense runs. Increase in distance when you feel it getting easier, and be sure to stretch a lot. I'd also suggest pilates/yoga.. for some reason when I started pilates I improved a lot at xc.. good luck! oh ps nutrution is important as well! lots of carbs before running

When we were in highschool we did pilates/yoga every day, and either a long distance run (~12-15km), a medium but intense run (~4-8km), or sprints, where we sprint for ~100m, then jog slowly/walk for a bit, then 100m sprint. We also did some hill training some days, sprinting up a hill then walking back down and doing it again (was very fun... lots of pukey people on these days)

The total area would be 10x8 which is 80m2

You have three different uncovered triangles, so you find the areas of each. Base*Height/2

1) (8 by x)/2 = 4x
2) (x by (10-x))/2 = .5(10x-x^2)
3) (10 by (8-x))/2 = 40-5x

So the quadratic formula for uncovered area would be
= (4x + 5x - ((x^2)/2) + 40 - 5x)
= (4x - ((x^2)/2) + 40)
= (4x - .5x + 40)
= 3.5x + 40

You would then set that to equal 0 to find the maximum x value, and thus the maximum uncovered area of the floor

My math in terms of quadratic equations is extremely rusty, so there's a very very good chance this is wrong, but it might give you the right idea to put you on the right track.. if not just ignore it :p sorry I couldn't be more help, I haven't taken math in a while :(

Edit: Something is wrong.. not sure what and too tired to try to figure it out right now, I'll check again in the morning.. maybe my brain will start working again :sorry:


#1515304 That tingly feeling for a guy/girl?

Posted by Jakerz on 03 October 2011 - 07:12 PM

I'll bet you that those two characters were loosely based off of you and this 'one girl'. You were probably the victim to what are called 'Covert Observations'. These obseervation sessions include two six man teams studying your behavior and daily interactions from afar. You should be honored. I have never known anyone to have actually been a victim. It's flattering really.


I bet I'm also a victim of "time travel", seeing as Big Bang Theory has been on for 4 years and I just met her a few weeks ago.
