He ran it 457,143 times
I really want to believe he was cosplaying as Superman trying to turn back time.

The Flash briefly appears in [the alternate universe story] Kingdom Come when the book is establishing its world’s status quo. Described as living “between the ticks of a second,” the Scarlet Speedster has turned his home of Keystone City into a crime-free paradise. He’d pushed himself so hard and gotten so fast that he was effectively omnipresent and could easily stop any disturbance before it began. However, in the process, Wally West had stopped slowing down to do human things like talk to people or sleep.

See this is the superiority of the metric system. You say a 0.112 km loop and you know that’s a 112 m loop. Say 0.07 miles and thefuckisthatonanyotherscale.
it’s 11.5 stone
I like to think the road leading into the cul-de-sac is accurate in size and his paths varied by about three road-widths and he was running through people’s yards at times.
(The truth is probably that the app doesn’t draw over previous paths so 450 laps equals 450 lines side-by-side)
The app devs didn’t expect this kind of problem, haha.
Also: civilian GPS is not super accurate. Or maybe our runner got board and started hopping fences Ferris Bueller style?
This guy and the guy who has been running through my neighborhood at night with glow sticks taped to his body would be great friends I feel.
And he also flew off the track because he came into that bend too hot.
There was a pokemon
Congratulations, you used GPS to draw Japanese Calligraphy.
THANK YOU FOR USING FREEDOM UNITS.
Hey, that’s me as an 11-or-12-year old, I used to jog around the block, in the old central section of town at night, my parents didn’t want me straying, there was an old park nearby with shady characters lurking there at night, and the old red light bar district was about three blocks away in the other direction.
If a mouse did this in study, we would euthanize it from mercy. I don’t even know if the first meth mice were this obsessive compulsive.
I live in Brooklyn, if a dude circled my block like this someone would def call the cops on him
That’s not true. They have put mouse exercise wheels in the wild and mice use them for fun. Mice love to run.
There was actually an interesting “exercise drug” line of research seeing if they could make a pharmaceutical that would make exercise fun. Wonder if that went anywhere.
Yeah that’s just MDMA.
Which they of course then banned because fun is not allowed
I think you are thinking of PPAR-δ agonists, it’s not about making exercise fun though. More like exercise in a pill. It worked, but gave the rats tumours I believe. People use it anyway, which seems a bit risky.
Yeah I know about that one! But in that same article (assuming we are thinking about the same one) they interviewed another scientist working on the other kind of drug.
Last I checked a less tumour inducing version of the drug was going into phase 1 clinical trials for muscular dystrophyin the last year or so
Good, it’s an exciting area of research. Don’t know about any article, I just happen to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of PEDs. I’d definitely be interested to hear about the other thing.

I’d kill for Hetap.
When my cat looked at the screen, she tried to play with that.

I am Jack’s light speed hydrogen atom

Was this posted by a goldfish?
…is it a repost? I scrolled back a bit and didn’t see it.
(edit: oh wait, did you mean the original original post, like he’s stuck in a fish bowl?)
I don’t think so, this is the first time I’m seeing it
Edit: yes I was talking about the person going around in circles like a goldfish in a bowl lol
Ah, gotcha. It went right over my head… whoops. Lol
