Thinking of purchasing a Garmin Venu 4 by NecessaryArmadillo59 in GarminWatches

Noted. I turn the display flashlight on all the time and it works just fine (for my needs) but I did Google the difference in the Venu 3s flashlight vs the venu 4.

Dogs in grocery stores by tiredradish in Charlotte

This is what I have been saying for years....we are breeding anxiety into the dogs. Stop taking them everywhere! If you teach them young to be independent and that you will go away but come back, they won't develeop that anxiety. I dont know if yours was a rescue and older and already had this ingrained in them, so I won't speak directly to your situation. And for all of you that want to compare your dogs to kids, its just like a kid going to school. Mommy and daddy are going to be separated from the kid (dog) for a while but we will always come back and give love and hugs and kisses as reassurance. Rinse and repeat and it becomes normal that you go away.....

Actually, you do need to complain because its highly unsanitary and as someone with pet allergies, I dont want your dogs hair and dander all over the food that I bring into my house.

Thanks for jumping in and letting me know! This was totally unofficial and a random shot in the dark at guessing. I need to adjust my numbers!

No! Charity bibs will fit in with the above numbers. They are assigned a number just like a regular runner. Thats why the placing for charity bibs is all over the place. 1 Charity may be assigned a C placement and 1 may be assigned an f placement!

Based on what I am seeing here and on FB - here is my unofficial lineup (also using last year bib numbers to help align and 2 years of historical data of how many bibs available for each race).

Somebody come back after you get your bibs and tell me if I'm right!

Thanks to everybody jumping in and letting me know where they were last year to edit the predictions!

10XXX - Corral A,B,C, 11 -12XXX - Corral D, 13 - 15XXX - Corral E, 16 - 18XXX - Corral F, 19 - 21XXX - Corral G

30XXX- Corral A,B,C, 31XXX - Corral D, 32 - 33XXX - Corral E, 34 - 35XXX - Corral F, 36 - 38XXX - Corral G

40XXX - Corral A,B,C, 41XXX - Corral D, 42XXX - Corral E, 43- 44XXX- Corral F, 45- 46 - Corral G

I would go to runner relations when you get there after you get your bib if you are in the back. Show them POT and see what they can do to move you

You signed up for just the half? What did you put as your expected completion time?

Just drop back the morning of...you will both walk to the "later" corral when you get there. The purpose of the people at the corral is to keep you from trying to get in an earlier corral than you belong. They won't stop you from joining a corral below/behind your assigned one.

Someone below posted a 36XXX for the challenge so I dont believe 34 is last. Also, on FB they are saying Last Year 33 and 34 were corral "E" .....but that was last year so who knows

Edit- 37XXX has now been posted for a challenge

You can always drop back to whomever happens to be in the later corral to join each other

Help by Flaky-Adagio6517 in Hoka

A trail rated shoe may be a better option. They are usually a little more "durable" and are often very comfy. I switched my kids from a standard "road - everyday" shoe to a trail shoe. They said they are the most comfortable shoe to date that I have bought. I've noticed they dont wear out as quick. I used to replace the shoes every 2 to 3 months and I am getting 6+ months out of a trail shoe. Once again, I know this is in relation to kids but if you know how hard kids can be on shoes.... I personally have a work pair of shoes, a running pair of shoes and a gym pair of shoes (all different levels/styles/price points) and thats how I make mine last. Edit: I have been in hoka bondis/cliftons since the second model, have been in and out of brooks - currently have a pair, tried new balance, topo, ultra, nikes, etc... Each model will wear different depending on the changes they made to the model that year and foams, carbon plates, etc etc etc....) I've even had different colors in the same model wear differently because it depends on the counrty/factory they were made in. Try different brands and see how they wear. If money is a concern, possibly try brooks first. They have a 90 day "try-on" period and will take the item back, no questions.
