That I'm not skilled enough to make. I wouldn't even know how to begin making something like that.

If I were lost on a primitive planet and had to use my knowledge and skills as an inventor to advance society, I'd be able to make a sandwich.

Keeping a competitive cyclist's heat-rate in various "zones" during training is regarded as important for improving strength and Max VO2, regardless of whether they're out on the road or riding rollers/static trainers indoors. I am guessing that something similar would be true for runners on a treadmill?

Jace:
Yeah I gotta start running so that I can wear 30+ lbs of armor and keep up with the Usterblichen at Pennsic. This past year they ran a mile in hills in around 8 minutes in full gear just to flank part of the Western Alliance. I ain't gonna be one of the guys who falls over at the halfway point.

(click to show/hide)Of course I would be the guy who runs away when encountering poison oak and then tree wasps after running a mile in 8 mins.

Carl-E:
I used to be one of the waterbearers with the chirurgeons at Pennsic. 


Stay hydrated before that 8 minute mile, so we don't have to revive you after the heat stroke, m'kay?
