re: 1st Half Marathon

Posted by Shwapp on 10/8/26 at 4:04 pm to
I'm training for a half marathon (have been running for about 9 weeks now with my long run 6-8 miles). I just asked Google AI to make me a 16 week training plan with 4 days per week and preferred running days. It made a nice table, and I put all the runs on my calendar. I was using the Runna free trial and didn't want to fork up the money for the annual subscription. The AI plan basically mirrored what I was doing with the Runna app.

Big update coming on October 8th. I still pick this game up occasionally, but it's mostly full of cheaters outside of solos. I hope this revives the game a bit and does something about the cheating problem.

I will admit that my wedding fell on the same day as the 2019 SEC Championship, and the church would not let us get married later than 2:00pm due to Saturday scheduled mass.

I'm replaying witcher 3 rn (getting ready for the new DLC) and it is a perfect game, minus the occasional bug.

I've been using the Naked brand creatine monohydrate. I just add it to my protein shake. No flavoring or additives. Just straight creatine.

I went the first week it opened. Definitely needed a bit of time to figure things out. A lot of the menu items weren't available, but the jerk chicken skewers and curried shrimp were very good.

Wife’s uncle bought 4 jbl flips and some mounting brackets for his back yard. Hung them all up and synced them together. Pretty cost effective wireless speaker system.
Well, the Swamp Chicken is now under new ownership, so he may have gotten his way.

Here's my Pawpaw's recipe. He catered all over the place most of his life. This was one of my favorites he would cook. Pulled it straight of the legal pad he wrote his recipes on.

3 sticks butter
3 medium chopped onions
3 ribs chopped celery
3 chopped bell peppers
1/4 cup flour
4 tbsp chopped parsley
3 lbs shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 qt half and half
1 lb velveeta cheese, cubed 1/2"
2 tbsp chopped jalapeno peppers
3 cloves crushed garlic
1 lb package fettucini noodles
Salt and Pepper to Taste
Parmesan cheese to taste

Melt butter in large heavy saucepan. Add onions, celery and bell peppers. Cook 10 minutes until clear. Add flour, blend in well. Cover and cook 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add parsley and shrimp. Cook 20 minutes, stirring often. Add cream, cheese, jalapenos, and garlic. Mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cook covered on low heat 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and add with sauce to a 3 qt buttered/greased casserole dish. Sprinkle with parmesan cheeese. Bake at 350 deg F for 12 minutes.

Recipe serves 12.
