How old were you when you started running?

I ask this because I have noticed that a lot of 50+ runners have started running later in their life. Me I was 33 when I began. I soon discovered I had more endurance than speed and did my first marathon at 40 years old.

How many in you age group were running? (little rant)

So you're over 60, do a race that went well and you're happy about yourself. But when you tell others that you arrive 3rd in your category, some ask you: "How many were running in your category?" And when you answer 10, you see their "so what" face.

What they don't realize is that after 60, injuries and many other factors contribute to lower the number of runners in the older age groups. Just being able to be an active runner is already an accomplishment.

So I say CHEERS to all of us out there.

Nobody likes the record that I play

That song resumes my situation. I'm an older guy who has started bedroom DJing a few months ago. I've made some decent lists, but the problem is that nobody wants to listen to them, starting with my wife who can't stands EDM. Maybe one day I'll give a try to an open deck somewhere, but until then, is putting some lists on soundcloud or mixcloud a good idea?

ADDED: *I've just seen the "*Weekly Mix Feedback thread" after publishing my msg.

Blinding light after a race

Hi community, not really an injury but when I finish a race, for about 20 minutes my surroundings are getting overexposed, everything and everyone are in a blinding light. I don't feel dizzy at all, I'm ok, but it's very special. Someone heard about that kind of things here? TY.

Do you have this dream?

I'm a runner and it happens to me once in a while. I'm heading to a race starting point, but I can't find it and I'm running to get to the place before it starts.

Le surnom le plus bizarre que vous ayez jamais entendu

Au Québec, on est fort sur les surnoms: ti-pit, ti-coune, ti-zoune, ti-boutte, etc. Ça doit sortir de l'école quand un enfant en surnomme un autre et que ce surnom lui reste. Pour moi, le plus sauté que j'ai entendu était "p*nis" ("Salut P*nis, ça va bien?").

What race you did brings back your fondest memories and why?

Mine is NYC Marathon 2002.

In 2001, NYC Marathon was the first public event allowed after 9-11, people were so happy to get out cheering the runners. One year later, the vibe was still strong. All along the course, there was tons of people cheering us, I felt like I was running on a cloud. For them we were the heroes that brought normal life back. What a feeling it was. Even at the restaurant where I had made a reservation, they brought a cake with the inscription "Congratulation Dan". It still gives me goose bumps when I talk about it.

Mixing is the cake, sound effects the icing

When I bought my DDJ-FLX4, I had fun trying all sorts of sound effects, but soon after, I realized that the real fun is in mixing the tunes and adding outros an intros to create unique mixes. So for me now mixing is putting all the right ingredients for the cake to rise while effects are the icing, to give flavours but not in too large amount.

Can't put Rekordbox setlists coming from Spotify on Mixcloud or Soundcloud, right?

I guess I have to transfer my Spotify's playlists to another streaming service?

Are you mixing in key?

As a beginner, I have not taken too much importance to that aspect of DJing, up until now, I'm trying to make a setlist respecting that. I find it binding. So if my track is 3B, I could go 2B, 4B and 3A. 2A and 4A are off limits?
