How much should I expect rerouting this gas line to cost?

There is a gas line in my basement going to my kitchen upstairs. I would like to have this rerouted to run alongside the hvac ducts in the middle of the basement. I would also like to have a gas hookup installed for my furnace and water heater as both are currently electric. Is this 1) possible to do? And 2) how much should I expect something like this to cost?

How to setup smart thermostat for HVAC damper system control without running a wire?

Looking to get the 2nd floor of my house zoned through a duct damper system. The HVAC rep said there won't be a way to control the 2nd floor thermostat with our phones without running a wire to the control board in the basement. The thermostat that will be installed will only be battery powered but not connected to wifi.

Can the 2nd floor temperature really only be controlled manually on the thermostat? I would think there could be a receiver installed on the damper control board with the thermostat connected to the wifi? The thermostat on our main level can be controlled on our phones but that one is hard wired. Curious if anyone found a solution to this

How screwed am I with this?

Just bought a house and noticed water was pooling in this corner of my basement. Pulled back the drywall and carpet and see this. Directly above this wall is where my kitchen meets my attached garage which is on a slab. Anyone know what is going on and best way to fix? Also what are those bolts coming out of the wall?

What am I looking at here?

Just bought a house and see this in the mechanical closet. Previous owners of 20 years said the house is wired for ATT fiber, but what are all of these wires and boxes for and what should I do with them? Ideally would like to clean this up and remove anything not worth keeping - just wanted to know what I’m dealing with first before starting to pull any wires.

Looking for feedback on my swim form

I can hold a 1:38/100y pace for a continuous mile swim. Looking for advice on what changes to make to get faster and more efficient. I have found on longer swims I start to get pain in my shoulders. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

What changes did you make that made you go from middle of the pack to front of pack in Ironman races?

I have done 2 Ironmans and both times I was directly middle of the pack in my age group. For example at IM Texas this year I was just under 12 hours and was 110/220 in my age group (for reference swim was 50/220, bike was 110/220, and run was 125/220). My training volume for Texas was ~15 hours/week and peaked at 18 hours and I did a good mix of threshold, tempo, race pace, and base sessions across all 3 sports. My average training mix in terms of time was 15% Swim / 55% bike / 30% Run the last 8 weeks before the race.

I know my run still needs some work so I am doing a marathon block this summer, but anyone else find themselves in this situation and found a breakthrough that took them to the next level? What did you change or focus more on?
