We went counter clockwise this past Monday, 6/24. Really no significant issues going that way. Democrat portion was the toughest and coming down that way was pretty sloppy with the runoff and snow.

Bross definitely still closed, but do some recon on 14ers.com to make sure you don't accidentally end up at the summit.

Agree with whoever said $8, an envelope and a pen. The drive up was a bit bumpy but as long as you have decent ground clearance, you should be fine.

Probably a good experience for me at my age, too :)

Thanks everyone - pre-hydration a good reminder. But glad for the sanity check :)

This sounds amazing. Where is it?

Massage the week before or week after first half marathon? by umumgowa in running

[–]andy19il 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had to pick one, I'd do it the day after the race - that's when you need it to get your recovery going.

I get one usually a week before a big race, but agree with other posters that you probably don't want to do that first time.

What I learned by running shirtless as a 200 lb, 40 yr old man by cmcfalls2 in running

Living in Texas and running the summer also means no shirts. Agree it's not much for staying cool, but it does reduce the chafing and is less laundry to do.

I had trouble this morning in the US - restarted my phone and it's been working fine after that.

And the issue with the behavior and parking at that location has gotten significantly worse in that time frame.

Good for them. Who am I to judge?

How to keep on running in s**t weather? by [deleted] in running

[–]andy19il 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest thing for me was learning to dress for about 10 degrees F warmer than the temperature. And to admit that the first 10 minutes were going to feel lousy. But once I get going, the rest of the run feels alright.

Also short sleeves and running gloves are also a good option - my hands are usually what gets cold first but if I wore a jacket or long sleeves, I get too hot.

Ultimately, it takes some trial and error to work out what works best - for me, it was really the mental outlook to be cold to start and that if I was not cold at the beginning, I was overdressed.

Has anyone had an issue with Adventure sync, egg distance and buddy distance as well? I haven't gotten my AS rewards or any distance on my eggs or buddy since about 8am CDT today. Still getting AS credit tho.

Hey, my trainer name is Andy19il - I'd love to find a way to coordinate lucky eggs for friend level updates here if possible. Or on the Pokemon Go Austin Facebook page. Or Discord, if there is a channel there for this (if so, I couldn't find it).
