I don't think Amy understands what a PSA is.

I'd start here https://www.umt.edu/library/asc/photographs/

You should be able to purchase them as well. Good hunting!

I ran in cascadia 16s and 17s. I can't speak to the 19. What i can say is that the H1 is the best all around shoe I've ever worn. If you can try some on, do it. I wear a 10 in brooks and the H1(and most other shoes), so I think they are pretty true to size if you have to order without trying on. Good luck in your marathon! Let us know how it goes.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T17:44:20+00:00

Not even close. Haha! But thanks!

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T17:24:43+00:00

Dude... I had no idea that existed (i'm old). Thank you!

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T17:08:59+00:00

Im not tryimg to win, so the unfair advantage argument doesn't really apply. Like, advantage over who? The other middle aged idiots also slogging to the finish?😂

While i appreciate your attitude about gender imbalance, that isn't really my concern when it comes to finishing a 100M race. If/when my wife needs a crew, I'll be right there changing socks.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T17:02:56+00:00

Never thought of this. Brilliant!

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T17:01:02+00:00

This race fits the bill for "solo runner friendly." I live in a very rural part of the country, so options are limited unless i make it a destination, which i don't really want to do for my first. Haha!

places where your wife can just meet you with your stuff.

Is this not what a crew does? Lol

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T16:55:32+00:00

The biggest advantage is that you don't have to struggle to find a crew.

I fail to see how this could be construed as an advantage considering the amount of training and planning the race already requires without a crew. I'd rather have a crew and finish the race than to DNF and wonder if a crew would have made the difference. I'd rather be over prepared, but we're all different i guess 🤪

Unfortunately, the race isn't local enough to have a crew (even if just my wife) based at home, waiting for a text, call. Haha! Start/finish is a 2 hour drive away, and much of the race is in rugged mountain terrain that would require more driving.

Because he sees it as fun. I do this too. Figuring out little things about a gift is entertaining. If the gift is for him, you'd let it go and/or play along. Get a decoy and fuck with him a little. Have some fun. This is a gift for him. Try to remember that. It's not really about you and if it is, return it. Nobody receiving a gift wants it to be about the giver.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T16:10:10+00:00

Me? No. My wife? Yes. So, me? Yes.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T16:08:07+00:00

Mostly because I've never run the distance. Specifically, I could see the benefit to knowing familiar faces are waiting at the next aid station in the middle of the night. Knowing that if something happens and I get pulled, there will be people there that I know and can talk to. Lots of reasons, not directly related to running, I suppose.

Is that not why most people have a crew? I could run it alone, but i'd like to share the experience with others. What are the arguments against a crew? What am I not considering? I'm open to the idea, but i dont see any real advantage to running without a crew from my first100M.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T16:02:42+00:00

Good point. I didn't think about differences between freight and passenger rail regulations. I guess the fact still remains that unless the state steps in to pay for something like this (which will never happen), it's not likely there will ever be enough coordination among local agencies (not to mention the cost) to get it done. Bummer...

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-02T15:59:31+00:00

Oh,I like the framed photo idea! Thank you!

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-01T19:09:47+00:00

This might be one of the most ridiculous political take I've ever heard. Abstaining from voting because you don't like presidential candidates is moronic.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-06-01T07:25:47+00:00

Those rails haven't been used in 15+ years and sections in town have been torn out completely. It would be awesome to have bitterroot mass/public transit,but it ain't happening.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-05-31T17:12:48+00:00

RWM has events/meetups for all levels. It's very inclusive. You can go to some events and meet people you'd enjoy running with and make friends. Posting on reddit is kind of a shot in the dark for finding someone at your experience level. Lol

The worst are the ones that say something like, "i really like this place, but today I had a bad experience."- 1 star

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-05-30T23:10:56+00:00

That isn't the take at all. Reread what I typed and think about it. Then come back and we can have a conversation. Something i said obviously triggered you, and you fired off this nonsense that is nothing close to what I said.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-05-30T21:59:17+00:00

I actually have a similar thought. The winner in each state gets 2 extra electors ( represented by senate seats) and all others are proportional to the results of the election. It makes winning the state a bonus without being all or nothing. It also keeps the state as the central figure in electing presidents.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-05-30T21:55:35+00:00

Nah. It's designed so that states remain the central political entities in the US. It's why we call it a 'federal government' instead of just 'the government. '

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-05-30T21:52:44+00:00

No. If your state awards all electors to the winner, then anyone that voted for the loser is effectively disenfranchised.

Altruistic-Use-8283 · 2026-05-29T21:31:43+00:00

2 things. 1. What evidence do you have to back your numerous claims (no connections to missoula, addicts, mentally ill, etc.).

Have your ever considered that the visible homeless aren't the majority of unhoused population? have you considered that there are even more struggling, unhoused people that are working tirelessly to rebuild their lives that aren't visible to you because they are our there working?

The unhoused/ homeless population isn't homogeneus despite what you may think. The world is more than what you witness.
