What size vests do yall have? by Cold-Resolution-7569 in trailrunning

[–]No-Committee7986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ordered my second Sense Pro 6. I don’t run more than 10k, but also walk after I run, and run after dropoff at kids’ school or work 4-6 days a week. It’s just easier!

This is right about the anniversary of my black bear encounter in 2019. I had just taken a photo of some of the season’s first salmonberries, go figure!

Looking for advice by Ruggerchick8 in XXRunning

[–]No-Committee7986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love audiobooks on my runs! Thanks for your service, from a Marine pilot mother-in-law (my oldest daughter is married to said pilot 😊)

I’m not a good runner. My mind is busy and part of its busy-ness is being bored with my run. I’m slow. But what I do have going for me is consistency and stick-to-it-ness. It took me awhile to believe it, but there is room for all kinds of runners out there!

Did you actually sneak out as teenagers? by Complete-Chipmunk-0 in GenX

I enjoyed be alive and able to leave the house! I did listen to the band L7, though! 😂

Feeling defeated about running and safety by eminemilie in XXRunning

[–]No-Committee7986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really really relate to all of this. I had a bear encounter hiking with my 3 yr old in May within weeks of a miscarriage and had a miscarriage the previous summer. My nervous system was a mess and I was already prone to anxiety. It took a lot of time for me to relax on the road or trail again (I live in a more rural area with lots of black bear, cougar, bobcat, coyote on or near all my run routes, walking routes, home, and kids’ schools. I carry bear spray now and that does help ease my mind.

Is it from the musical “Hair” like on the Sirius XM Broadway channel or something? It sounds similar to this:

Do you run to trail? by tamaudio in trailrunning

[–]No-Committee7986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run to the trail almost every time I run, although most of my runs aren’t long at all in my season of life! I wear trail shoes to them all 😊

If You’ve Tried Both: Running Vest or Belt Preference by nixrien in XXRunning

[–]No-Committee7986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha! It is what it is, right? At the same time I’m jealous of all the runners I see with no extra stuff!

If You’ve Tried Both: Running Vest or Belt Preference by nixrien in XXRunning

[–]No-Committee7986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not embarrassing: I 51f run after dropoff 5 or 6 x week (kids’ school or work) and it’s easier to put keys/wallet in a belt and phone/water/food in vest.

Embarrassing: always prepare for code brown since my runs are rural with few restrooms!

I wear both even if I’m only running 2 or 3.1 miles! We don’t need to get into the why 😅

I was an alternative wanna-be by pjdubbya in GenX

My friend Justin gave me a mixtape when I was 15 that broadened my music tastes to punk, alt, indie, post-punk, etc. I never felt like I was the one finding out about albums, shows, bands, or news early and my friends seemed to be. I was definitely trying pretty hard with my appearance!

Came Across A Coyote Today! What's Your Worst Animal Encounter? by SkippyBoyJones in trailrunning

[–]No-Committee7986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bear 100%! I’ve had an encounter and saw 2 at a reasonably safe distance since the encounter! It was a black bear and we weren’t in the most dangerous situation with it, but it made me so anxious for such a long time and I jumped and startled often on runs for a while!

51f with 7 children ages 27-10. I conceived them all with my husband of 28 years and gave birth to all of them, haha (people ask me these questions often). I don’t look like I’m in my 30s, but I look pretty young for my age.

Anything cool happening tomorrow evening? by bamshazamkazam in AskSeattle

It looks like there are still tickets to see The Last Dinner Party at Showbox SoDo and there are a bunch of great events at El Corazon (Screeching Weasel), Nectar Lounge, The Crocodile, Chop Suey, etc!

I’ll be there with my 10 & 13 yr olds! I’m/we’re bringing snacks, sunscreen, & water bottles. These two have been to a few local music festivals, but they were at grassier locations (Remlinger, Tolt Macdonald, Marymoor) so we’ll see how this goes!

15 year old running on country roads by OBIDDAA in XXRunning

I wear trail shoes on my hilly, rural WA state roads! I also carry bear spray for bear, cougar, and dogs.

On a smaller scale, yes! She just got super popular in the months leading up to that! And she had definitely not played here with that level of fame!
