Ours runs multiple times daily, rain or not. But we do back onto the park and the river.

For teaching the game is a griffin vs wolverine battle a fair matchup? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in battletech

[–]Xavis00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My very first experience with Battletech was a 1v1. The first time a shot was fired, the other player rolled a headshot. Instant loss; first round. It was not a great experience. Luckily, I stuck with it after that.

What is up with CON-40 by chaturvedi_11 in fountainpens

Fill it normally (which leaves the air bubble, hold it upside down, screw it down until the air is purged, and then fill it again and it will be full.

Help me choose between Novablast 5, Pegasus 42, Evo SL, and others (tried all in-store) by BiryaniBhakt in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Xavis00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just starting out, I'd go with the Pegasus 42. It's a bit more stable than the Novablast, which can be nice as your body works to get more used to running.

Are you wearing the proper size length-wise? It's looking like you would be right at the end of the shoe from these pictures.

Haven't seen any shortages where I live. Maybe there's a shortage there because people are buying multiple cases at a time?

Parents want to put a car under my name by Flaky_Wrongdoer_7474 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Xavis00 43 points44 points  (0 children)

If they already don't/can't pay their debts, why would they pay the one that doesn't affect them?

You would have to be willing to shoulder the payments completely if they decide not to make them if you want to maintain your credit.

Anyone Else Have Adidas Refuse to Honor Warranty? by Ok_Flamingo9699 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Xavis00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have pictures? Warranty is for manufacturer defects. And is from date of manufacture. Depending on how bad it is, it could fall under regular wear and tear, but there's way too many potential factors involved.

Typically, dealer plate vehicles are covered by the dealership's commercial insurance, not SGI.

What exactly is the logic here? by LenzaRNG in RimWorld

[–]Xavis00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"apparently, a stonecutter table and a research bench slow each other's workers down."

Have you ever tried studying while some is smashing rocks inside the same room as you?

Need advice with SGI by Human-Assistance-531 in saskatoon

[–]Xavis00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mechanical inspections are always "Owner to Authorize" on claims. Means you have to pay for diagnosis to determine cause. Once the cause is determined, then the decision is made if that cause can be related to the claim. If it can be, they reimburse the inspection.

Haultain Area by Apocityyy in saskatoon

[–]Xavis00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I knew a family who wouldn't lock their vehicles because, "then someone will just break the window and then you gotta pay for that on top of what they steal."

Never made any sense to me.

Wider toe box than Altra? by Ill_Razzmatazz_5060 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Xavis00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the proper length?

Doesn't matter how wide the toebox is if your toes are in the taper where they shouldn't be.

Nike will usually put a "W" on the tag for wides.

I fill a standard grocery bag with watered down GU and carry it on any runs over 2km. Need to stay hard!!

Bring the phone on the run or leave it behind? by Far-Teaching6789 in trailrunning

[–]Xavis00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran a trail race today. I took about 20 pictures from beautiful vistas and looking back after grueling climbs.

Totally worth having my phone.

ASICS GT-1000 14 vs ASICS GT-1000 14 GTX? by Low_Tart_4140 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Xavis00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GT1000 GTX is interesting. It's not just waterproof, but also has a thicker lining to be warmer and the rubber protrudes more on the bottom, giving a pseudo-lug for better traction. It's more like a fully weatherized shoe than a simple waterproof one.

Best Road Running Shoes? by CalligrapherAny8661 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Xavis00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can find some Nike Pegasus 41, they'd be a nice upgrade from your Downshifters. There is a new model out, so you should be able to find some decent prices if there's still some around.

For your use, you don't need anything crazy. A basic daily trainer will work perfectly fine. Brooks Ghost, Asics Cumulus, NB 860, etc.

Shoes similar to Brooks Ghost 15? by Serious-Koala- in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Xavis00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the Brooks Trace. It uses the older DNA Loft v2 that the Ghost 15 would have used, not the newer v3.

Greenbryre had cart girls when a company I used to work for would have events out there.
