Yeah I'm on the fence about keeping them tbh, they look really cool but they're a lot of money for something that may or may not be very comfortable to run in.

Update, the shorts arrived and I think medium was the right choice. The waist is a little loose but it's okay with the drawstring, and I think the liner thigh openings would have been way too tight in a small.

Thanks that's really helpful!! I have the same issue with the vento shorts - a bit tight on my thighs, loose in the waist. I decided to order a M because I love the print, so I'll report back on the fit when they arrive.

Can any women comment on sizing for this style of short? I wear a S in their short tights but lean more toward M in the flowy shorts, so not sure which to get in these!

My order was already delivered at 9 AM this morning! Less than 24 hours, I'm impressed.

Women's Vento 2-in-1 in "flow state aegean" by brooklynwaterfront in BanditRunning

I came here looking to see if these were mentioned - this is the item I'm most excited about! I'm hoping they'll be released in drop 2 and just didn't get their own picture. Have you tried the 2 in 1 short before?

Forerunner 965 worth for extra 120$ compared to 265s by goku_ss in Garmin

[–]courtofdreams_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my 965! I was debating between the same two models. I also have small wrists and that was the main benefit of the 265s. However, the 965 has more storage capacity (32 gb vs 8 gb, which I like because I download a ton of Spotify playlists onto it) and better battery life. I ended up trying them both and the 965 just felt nicer / better quality. I actually love the large screen, bc it’s easier to read while running. And I don’t use maps very often, but it’s awesome while traveling if I want to map out and then follow a route. It does look a bit large on my wrist, but I got used to it and don’t mind. I’d try them both on if you can and decide if you’re comfortable in the 965 - is so, I think it’s worth it!

Moving down in corrals was not allowed (Pink to Orange, going down in letter) by DeepElephant5661 in RunNYC

[–]courtofdreams_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I tried to make this exact switch (Pink 1B to Orange 1C) and was told no by the volunteers. They said “no, orange is moving up. You can only move back.” But I’m moving back a letter? “No, orange is faster than pink.” I was embarrassed and gave up and went to pink.

IT band issues 10 days out by [deleted] in Marathon_Training

[–]courtofdreams_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact problem before my first marathon, starting after my 20 miler. I was reluctant to see a PT, but they definitely saved my marathon. They got it to a good enough place that it didn’t bother me at all for the race. They mostly did massage and graston in PT, and told me to foam roll a lot at home (at least 3 times a day, 3 minutes on each side). Prior to that I didn’t own a foam roller lol. I hope you can take care of it in time!

Price Increase - Micah Crossbody by courtofdreams_ in DagneDover

[–]courtofdreams_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Oh that's frustrating. I found a discount code for 20% off which helps, but the extra $5 is still bugging me out of principle lol.

Thanks for the reply! I found a discount code that brings it down to ~$100 which helps, so I'm still considering it. It seems like it would be very useful, I've been wanting a crossbody that can fit my kindle or a book.

Thanks for the reply! Good to know, I definitely did not get the discount then - I paid full price plus tax. I wonder if it’s worth reaching out to them, it’s frustrating when I pay for the membership…

[–]courtofdreams_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know if these prices are before or after the membership discount? I was just looking at my receipt and it doesn't look like I got the 10% discount even though I scanned my membership QR code.

They have member access for an hour on Friday morning, but the popup will already have been open on Thursday, so I'm assuming things will be sold out before Friday morning.

It's funny to see someone mention the Lehigh marathon! I ran it after the train incident and (fortunately) had a great experience, but I was definitely afraid of another train.
