I wrote a brutally honest book about addiction, psychedelics, and rebuilding my life through fitness and self-discipline.
I asked AI to rate it.
It gave me a 9.3/10.
Here’s what it said—and why you might want to read it too. 🧵
zone 2 running is a concept that basically says, "my body can maintain this pace all day long."
you can calculate z2 using a calculator like this: https://t.co/khjFNjEKb7
for me, my z2 is between 136-149 bpm.
When i first started trying to run in zone 2, 10 months ago, my pace needed to be at like a 12:30min/mi to stay under 149. i've run 100+ miles every month since then, as running easy has allowed me to stay super fresh from session to session.
Just this morning, I had my lowest hr while running, averaging a 138 while running a 10:30 pace. i'm stoked with that progress
I strongly suspect something is trying to rehabilitate Hunter Biden in the public mind. Beware. I could be wrong, of course, but the degree of self awareness seems shocking, and it’s inconsistent with the entire backstory.
@DavidDack define a break - like is stopping for a sip from the water fountain a break? what about at an aid station during an ultra? or we just talking about being done for the day
@DavidDack My first race was a spartan half marathon 2.5 years ago. Hadn’t run in a decade+ minus 6 runs for a total of 20 miles in the 2 weeks leading up to the race. Painful is an understatement
I gained the ability to quit a decade of cocaine usage on the spot after just two small psilocybin doses (.5 and 1g)
It’s not magic, but just the result of finally being able to make clearly reasoned decisions
I wrote a book about that experience and changing so many other habits.
Now I run ultramarathons and make the podium at Spartan Races
@PaulAustin3w Three weeks after I first tried psilocybin (.5g the 1g 2 weeks later), I did my last line of coke.
I was able to ask myself why I was doing it.
And decided it had no place in my life
@Hybridathlete 123 hr over that pace is really impressive. I’m typically sitting like 155ish at that pace (in Florida, so heat’s a factor. But not THAT much of one)
But long runs anything over 13mi
They are using 7-0H as an excuse to ban all kratom. 7-0H is only found naturally at low levels in the kratom leaf which they use to grind up into powder to ingest or put into capsules. Its no more addictive than coffee in regular doses, safer than alcohol & prescription opiates.
@gjurvetson@GrahamM06812404 I wrote a book about how psilocybin helped me stop alcohol, cocaine, chewing tobacco, sex addiction, gambling and just overall live a beautiful life
