I just heard about this pastry that’s something like baklava. It’s called Kataifi. Does anyone know where I can buy it fresh in Eugene?
Update: thanks, I’ve seen them frozen in grocery stores already. Hoping for a fresh made version.
My vo2 max was around 60 for about half a year and then when I was training hard for an upcoming 5k race, it gradually moved up to around 63. Which I suppose I should have been happy about, but i always thought that it was wrong i.e. much too high. The main reason I thought that it was wrong was because Apple miscalculated my maximum HR as 163 whereas I think it should have been 157 or maybe even lower.
So I finally decided to try to adjust the vo2 max estimate down to something more reasonable. I tried and tried to adjust the max heart rate that Apple Watch uses, but it seems there is no way to directly do this. I also tried increasing my input body weight 10 pounds, but that did not seem to have much, if any, effect.
So finally I decided to fiddle around with my age input. Eventually, after testing a few different years, I landed on 9 years older than my actual age (so 73 years old instead of 64). Once I put that year in (and I also used July 9 as my fake birthdate so the watch would do its birthday recalculation), it adjusted my estimated max heart rate down to 157. Then the next time I did an outdoor workout, my vo2 max sharply dropped down to 54.8 (shown in the graph). Probably still a little too high, but definitely closer to reality.
And I know, I know, ”it’s just an estimate and you should only pay attention to the trend”, but it still makes me happier to see a slightly more accurate estimate.
Just thought I would share this in case someone else has a similar issue someday.
