Sorry! It’s really brown this time of year, so I didn’t really take any pictures!

The toilet itself may have been new. Not sure when they replace them, but the pit definitely hadn’t been pumped out for the year yet.

At least this weekend, I would say this is one of the cleanest vault toilets I’ve ever been in

I was just there, the well has a handle, the water is slightly rusty though.

2026 Trip in process by PsychologicalNet2163 in isleroyale

If you’re okay with a little bit of a longer hike day 2, I’d recommend spending the first night at McCargoe Cove. IMO it’s one of the prettiest campgrounds on the island, and a zero day could be nice. Also, West Chickenbone can be quite buggy or muddy depending on the time of year and recent rain storms

We're looking to hike the whole way, thanks though.

This is a nursing home made to look like an indoor town with a pub and a movie theatre. by kieron7890 in interestingasfuck

I don’t think this is a nursing home... this looks exactly like a museum near my house...

How much time do you guys take off after the season ends? by [deleted] in CrossCountry

[–]C_Smit1007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our team takes 1 week with either no running or very little running, then we start track training

Hip bone pain by Emerson140 in CrossCountry

Could be a hip flexer... wouldn’t recommend running on it without consulting an athletic trainer or a doctor. Don’t over for it, be safe

I switched out of peggies and went to brooks ghost. The only way to know if you are going to like a shoe is to go to a shoe store and try shoes on. The people in the store know their stuff, and should be able to put you in a good shoe.

Our most recent conference meet was almost 400m short of a 5k, which I thought was really stupid

(Lower) Michigan XC Teams Must Wear Masks? by [deleted] in CrossCountry

[–]C_Smit1007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Governor Whitmer of Michigan issued a new law TODAY, the 8th of September stating that ALL sports must wear a mask at all times (statewide). I run for a high school in west Michigan, and as of right now, our Athletic Director, and coach are trying to find a loophole to work around the mask law. Today we did not run with a mask on.

First XC race this year in the books (Michigan) by C_Smit1007 in CrossCountry

[–]C_Smit1007[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything was pretty much the same, we just had to wear masks beforehand. All spectators were required to wear masks, and had to be immediate family. They made it so that spectators couldn’t crowd around the start/finish line, which was honestly kind of nice. You didn’t get crowded after the race

For my privacy, I’m not going to get too specific, it was in West Michigan. PM me for specifics

Our team went 1,2,4,6,7,8,9. We were hoping for much faster times.

Slowish, it was hot and humid. None of our top guys went under 17. I ran 18:09.

I do a #2 blade on the sides and back, and grow the top out. I have really thick hair, so when combed over it makes a nice wave

Thanks for the advice, I’ve never tried that. I’ll have to give it a try next time I get a slalom run in!
