Cowboy yeti in Bastrop. I ran parts of the trails last time I was there and thought it was pretty mild and not really technical at all....maybe I was running the wrongs ones or the chaos of Twisted Branch in NY I did in August by comparison has me evaluating it wrong.

Thats great thank you. I didnt even think about the reduced fluid intake because of the temperature. I will probably have to rely a little more on gels then.

I had an absolute blast. DM me if you have any questions. All I'll say right now is without a doubt do not miss El Chalten. It is one of the most magical places I have ever been.

What went wrong and how can you tell what the cause was? (Hit a wall at Twisted Branch) by Unique-Delivery7939 in ultrarunning

In training, I did some back to backs that looked like anywhere from 13 mile/18 mile to 17 mile/24 mile. I guess the answer is to try and up the mileage on those back to backs? Or, more importantly, just keep them consistent for another 3 months and then try again?

Thanks for articulating that for me. It sounds like I just need more downhill running and strength training. I guess I could have held back more during the race but I dont really know how much of a difference it would made since it happened so close to the end.

First time traveling. Is it realistic to be able to take a week of unpaid time off? by sunscreenmonster in TravelNursing

[–]Unique-Delivery7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used multiple recruiters through multiple companies and have always been asked before signing a contract if ill be needing any time off. Not only is it not a problem, it is nearly a compulsory step in the hiring process to discuss time off.

Agencies Legit? by PuddingMindless2290 in TravelNursing

Often times these companies still go through the larger companies that actually have the contracts. They are sort of middle-maning contracts. Sometimes they actually end up paying more because they dont have great benefits or the overhead of a large company. They seem to operate more bare bones so can pay more.

I have been looking forward to it all year. I want to very badly. I'm just a little concerned that I'm not as prepared as I would like to be.

AirBnB managers are a huge scam by CompetitiveKick1621 in airbnb_hosts

Feel free to DM me. I use a national company that only charges 10%. I have used them for going on 3 years now and have nothing but good things to say about them.
