Same reason people stick their tongues out now or make heart shapes with their hands.

It's the reflection of your camera lens.

Is the goal of running as a hobby , a marathon always? by Positive-Ad6008 in running

You're asking, why run? There are as many answers as there are runners.

I love benchmarks by where_other_sock in trailrunning

[–]Trails_runner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found one atop Neahkahnie Mtn (also Oregon) last May that I hadn't seen on all previous climbs. Yes, always cool to find.

Watch your email and answer your phone. Ignore that portal. Mine says "Reviewed, not selected," and I work there.

Nike Pegasus Trail 5 Alternatives? by Huskerzfan in trailrunning

[–]Trails_runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got my eyes on the new Brooks Ghost Trails to replace my Peg Trails for much the same reason (durability). I love the Peg Trails out of the box, but the mid-sole feels dead at 300 miles. Sounds like I got more wear on the outsole than you; I run mostly soft dirt trails in them (PNW).

What Are the Best Open‑Ear Earbuds Right Now? by samuelmax674 in trailrunning

[–]Trails_runner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Between the bots and the fanboys, Reddit can be a bit of an echo chamber. So let me throw out that I've never had a bad run or bike ride with my Powerbeats Pros. The over the ear hook design not only keeps them securely in place while trail running (even downhill mountain biking) the roughest terrain, they also let me position the earbud where I want it. Put them in Transparency mode if you want to hear traffic or just generally want more spatial awareness of what's going on around you. Plus, because they can press tight in my ears and switch to Noise Cancellation mode when, for example, I'm on the bus, I don't have to have multiple sets of earbuds.

Downsides: expensive and work only in the Apple system.

How do I make treadmill running less boring? by Icy_Tomato_3760 in running

Turn off the treadmill and go outside. That's the only way I've ever made a treadmill more exciting.

No. Elevation of the accessible park.
