I'm very new to pickleball - played about 5-10 hours. A friend gave me two one-liner tips that drastically changed my game:
I'm wondering if there are other pithy tips that beginners like me can keep in mind to improve our game?
(I realise that any one line tips will not work all of the time but should be taken as a rough starting point)
I'm planning to start House of Open Wounds, but it's been a while since I read City of Last Chances. Is there anywhere I could find a recap of the big plot points so I feel more comfortable going into HoOW?
The Kennington is a cozy pub in... well, Kennington. I (35M) am planning to attend the pub quiz tonight - wanted to see if there's interest in getting a team together. You don't have to be a super quizzer or anything - it's just a bit of fun at the pub.
The quiz starts at 7.30. I was thinking we can meet up around 7, get a drink, and settle in Drop a comment here or DM me, and we'll figure out how to find each other

I realised I enjoy reading SFF a lot more when I can discuss it with others (especially if it's a 700 page doorstopper). Maybe there are others like me in this group? If there's a SF book that you haven't yet read, but would like to read with someone else, share here, and let's see if can get some buddy reads going in pairs/trios/small groups!
(Also, do let me know if there's a better subreddit for this sort of thing)

Silly noob question: I just finished W9D1 (yay!), but after tracking the run, I noticed that I'm quite a bit below the 5k mark. I don't have the exact figure, because I tracked the warm up and warm down walks as well, but even with those combined I only got to 4.9km.
So my question is - am I running absurdly slowly? Or is it not the goal to actually run 5km in 30 mins?
Apologies if this should be obvious to me: Is the only way to try H&S to buy 3 bags of Huel? 😮 (UK if that matters)
Sorry if this isn't the sub for casual listeners, but I'm looking for reasonably cheap, wireless earphones. I hardly listen to music, mostly just audiobooks and podcasts on my phone - so sound quality isn't terribly important. But ear comfort is.
I've previously used airpods and found them quite good, though expensive. Tried galaxy buds when I switched to android and found the form factor very uncomfortable. I'm okay with any budget, but looking to minimize, as my high end go-to will end up being the airpods.
Anything out there that fits my needs?
