      Someone who makes assumptions about women and confidently tells them how they should be doing the things they are already doing.

    I find this hard to believe…if the guy’s doing analysis, he’d surely know who she was. He’d be a big enough “fan” of running to even start doing analysis. Man, the internet is just full of BS.

    Anyway, I’ll pretend this was real and it’s kinda funny.

      I’m pretty sure the venn diagram of people who give unsolicited workout advice and people who don’t pay attention to the by line is just a circle.

    The expression should be “I had too much heart to tell him.” A person lacking heart would have told them, gleefully.

      No, “didn’t have the heart” doesn’t mean you don’t have heart, just means you have a different kind of heart, so it works fine.

        Ahh I see… It should be DON’T don’t have a heart.

        Thanks for clearing that up!

      As a running enthusiast whose varied from running ~25 miles a week to having to restart from nothing, what the guy is talking about is extremely common. I’ve followed many different plans from many runners, sometimes their names are attached, sometimes not, and most of them I couldn’t tell you what they look like. I will say Olympic runners are the most common. I’ve even come across hers. Nothing about this rings as implausible to someone remotely interested in the topic. I guess I could understand from a total outsider perspective, but from someone who looks into that topic often? Absolutely plausible. I see no reason not to believe them.

      Edit: the amount of stories Tony Hawk posts like this and never gets questioned also just makes me wonder a bit about why multiple people have already commented the way you did.

      This feels very much like a /r/nothingeverhappens comment.

    This happens a lot in the firearms community. I get told about x, y, z guns and how they function. But I have all those guns and have trained on the less accessible. I own full auto legally but every other day I’m told I can’t own one. People be dumb.
