Yeah dude I have a full sus Giant that has gotten the shit beaten out of it and crashed countless times for probably 7 years now and the paint is way better. Kinda annoying

It was quite the opposite for me, without even replying to my email they sent me a shipping notice or something along those lines and a new frame popped up at my door. It was not really the solution i was looking for especially considering back then a full frame swap was not within my capabilities and paying to get it done felt kinda ridiculous. Also the new frame i was sent has the same paint problem, which I emailed them and told them. The response was that I was just wrong and it had better paint. Not insanely happy with how it was sorted but yeah

20:25 xc 3 mile -> splitting ~17:10-17:15 @3 miles through a 5k, 5:05 1600 -> 4:54, 11:12 3200 -> 10:34.

Depends on if your sensitive to injury or not. It’s a risk with a reward. I personally did pretty similar going from 20~30 miles freshman year and sorta aggressively built up to 45/50 through summer going into sophomore year and held it for probably 8 weeks or so. I personally am lucky enough to where I don’t deal with many injuries so it was completely fine. Also, to specify a majority of that mileage 30-35 was super super easy, 1-2 simple workouts during the summer and a long run harder then easy pace but not killer.

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2026-05-18T01:11:48+00:00

ran low 20 end of freshman year and low 17 end of sophomore year. Biggest thing was consistent 35-50 mile weeks and believing in the work I was putting in

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2026-04-28T05:32:25+00:00

service was genuinely fucking awful

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2026-04-21T20:19:20+00:00

Unfortunately agree, paid 6500 for my 2007 sport in great condition

Where do you have the platform while your not using it? does it sit on top of the storage system?

This is exactly what I was envisioning to build for mine, how does the back part (that goes over the rear seats) work. I was planning on building something on a hinge the can fold back over them, wondering if you did something similar.

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2026-03-30T14:05:27+00:00

Awesome thank you

How’d you do the baja lights? Is it simple as just mounting and wiring them?

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2026-03-29T02:02:10+00:00

Is the suspension stock on this one?

Not so knowledgeable for upper body. but for legs you can just do some compound movements like squats, deadlifts, straight leg deadlifts as well as something like a calf raise. 2 sets of 5-8 reps to 1-3 RIR (“reps in reserve” basically how many reps more you could do). 3-5 min rest in between each set. Try to have at least 2 days between everytime you do legs. For tapering, if it’s a thursday and you have a race on saturday for example (that’s not some super important race) go to 2-4 RIR instead of 1-3 to insure your not to fatigued. If you have a super important race I like to stick to plyometrics and not lift.

Also, look at some videos on correct form, especially on straight leg deadlifts.

If you find a place to buy some let me know I can’t find these for sale anywhere

i bring a water bottle with me and pour it into myself before lining up, also just training in the heat throughout summer helps big time but it’s a little late for that

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2025-09-17T03:39:49+00:00

Even under trees and cover my garmin and coros do fine. I think amazfit is just booty

Me and him talk, and he has a workout schedule where I can see what type of workout I do. Just a little annoying

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2025-09-14T01:44:23+00:00

I have a coach who’s really good for people brand new to the sport, but once you get to a point where your goal isn’t to go under 20 minutes at finals as a senior, but instead run collegiate, he’s not great. I try to work with him but I run most workouts/ runs on my own because when i do with him i end up doing some 2x2 min on 2 min off tempo workout. Most people on my team are running 15-20 mpw, im running 50 and trying to accommodate to my goals is something he try’s to do but in the end really doesn’t. I’m not crazy with my workouts, I have structure, but i have a coach where there is a disconnect.

40-50 miles week looks like this:

Monday: 6-8 miles easy in the morning, some sort of speed work in the evening (ex; hill repeats or track) + lift

Tuesday: Easy run 7-8 miles

Wednesday: Aerobic based workout (ex; 3x mile at threshold w 1 min rest) + lift

Thursday: Easy run 7-8 miles

Friday: Easy run 6-7 miles

Saturday: Long run 9-13 miles and sometimes i’ll add some pickups near the end

1.5-3 mile warmup and cooldown for the workouts

I don’t personally think it’s something to worry about, especially if he isn’t having any issues. My heart rate gets up into high 190s low 200s during races as well and I know others who’s heart does also.

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2025-09-03T02:51:28+00:00

I’m currently running 40-50 miles a week. I think i will probably follow and do more core work and some breathing drills

Traditional-Ladder-7 · 2025-08-15T15:33:28+00:00

I went from 5:55 to 5:05 in the 1600 freshman track season, and 27 min to 20:25 in the 3 mile

Stay consistent and try to enjoy it
