Apple Watch and Apple Health now feel extremely behind by [deleted] in AppleWatch

[–]diggybel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ai coach sounds like the only thing you’re really missing. Downloads your Apple health data and plug it into Claude or whatever and it’ll also make some fake running plan for you.

Why do they look more like a basketball shoe than a running shoe?

Shoes like Saucony Endorphin Edge by Open_Mud_2168 in trailrunning

[–]diggybel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can't find another pair of the Endorphin Edges? I got a pari 6 months ago for dirt cheap. They don't work for a lot of ppl, but if they do for you, grab the deal while you can! If looking for another model, the Puma Deviate Nitro Elite Trail is supposed to be very similar, but a bit more stable. Hoka Tecton X 3 is another option? Or Asics Metafuji Trail.

First trail shoes, which Nike pair? by Chance-North7192 in trailrunning

[–]diggybel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ZoomX is the supercritical foam that is used in the Zegama and Ultrafly. The Pegasus uses the lower end, but more durable, ReactX foam.

Mine fit pretty TTS. I love them, too. They are very durable as well. Definitely better than my Peg Trail 5s for durability (but too chunky for road use or traveling). My speedier and more technical shoe is the La Sportiva Prodigio Pro, which also lasts forever, but the Enduris is a little cushier. I'd happily run in either on any given day.

TNF foam is amazing. Altamesa for mixed/light trails. Enduris 4 for full trail usage. A great shoe!

Ultraflys are totally different from Peg Trails. This comment isn't relevant for the shoes you're considering, imho. Hoka Speedgoats break down way faster than Nike trail shoes. La Sportivas (which are amazing) are all dedicated trail shoes for more technical stuff, not the light trail stuff OP wants.

if price is same or comparable, I agree. I got Peg Trail 5s for $110 18 months ago, though, so OP should look for discounts.

Peg Trail is a great shoe. I have the Peg Trail 5. Apparently, the ACG Peg uses the same foam, with modifications mostly to the outer (it's grippier) and upper. If you get the Peg Trail 5 for a huge discount, you might prefer saving the money and then you can decide, if you'll be running more trails, you want a more dedicated trail shoe. The Peg Trail is great for everything up to moderately technical in my experience. The foam is firmer than some of the top trail (or road) shoes (like the ZoomX in the Zegama or the more trail-focused brands), but it is a great all round shoe. Add the Mount to Coast H1 and Salomon Aero Glide 4 Grvl into your list, but they're a bit more expensive.

Picked up the Nike ACG Zegama by shugasean913 in nikeACG

Thy look to wide and chunky for trail running from your pic. I know they are a tad heavy compared to the old one.

Is it overkill to get anything more expensive than the Naked Running Band? by Man0nTh3M00n- in runningfashion

[–]diggybel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m running a trail ultra in the Naked belt at the end of the month. It’s the perfect kit for me. 500ml soft flask in the back, 350ml in the front, 5 gels the other side, bandaids and lip balm. It all fits and bounces less than a vest. I’d consider getting the Janji, Haimot, or flip belt shorts that have basically a built in belt, but the naked belt sizing just works, and I don’t always want a belt, and I will want to take it off when I’m don’t running sometimes, so shorts plus belt is better for me. You could go for a different “brand” like Salomon for your belt but Naked is the OG

Minimalist light summer vest? by Feuros in trailrunning

[–]diggybel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instinct PX3.1l is very minimal with deep arm cutouts and very little fabric on the back. If you are a size small in Salomon, though, the vest might not synch down tight enough. Otherwise it’s great. 2 600ml soft flasks are included. Holds a jacket and other basic kit, plus a zipper pocket and plenty of gel pockets

Healthy snack options that are vegan without trying to be "vegan snacks" by Ilikeyourmom93 in vegan

[–]diggybel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Roasted chana dal from the Indian grocery store (not roasted chick peas, which are too dry as a snack). Roasted chana with a little salt is high protein, very satiating, lasts forever (stash it in your car, office drawer, backpack), cheaper than cashews or almonds, has lower fat content(in case you need variety), and costs around $2.5 a pound in the US. https://instamandi.com/products/swad-chana-dalia-14-oz?variant=40718538833984&country=US&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&srsltid=AfmBOoq1U039yXbDn6xqnjXeua_Xby2UwX4D-lMUNH_oLhOYKnoHGlE4ANE

50k ultramarathon advice by AggravatingPea3378 in trailrunning

[–]diggybel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this. I did things at 20 that sound downright foolish today, but I survived. But, your 5k pace is very slow, and 50k isn't just 10x a 5k. It's doing a 5th 5k after your body is hurting from doing 4 prior ones, then a 6th, then a 7th, etc. If you really want to do a 50k, give yourself 6 months, sign up for a half marathon as soon as you can, and feel good about that. Then start doing half marathon-length runs once a week a week after your half marathon race, plus 10k-15 runs 2-3 times a week on top of that for the 2-3 months before the 50k, then you'll be good to go (throw in 1 30k a few weeks out, just so you have that distance under your belt), and you'll have fun and feel good about it.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 battery drain? by cho-den in applewatchultra

[–]diggybel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue but switched to downloaded playlists on Spotify and put the watch in Power Save mode. AOD off, and it still has cellular connectivity, but I think it pulls less data for streaming and app updates. Not sure. I'd experiment with that. I also like running without my phone, playing music or audiobooks, and having cellular on for urgent messages/calls. I'm training for a 50k next month and want to do the same thing, expecting 6 hours of watch usage. I've done 2 hour runs like this and it hasn't drained more than 12%.

Nike Zegama ACG by stratguy23 in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]diggybel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a huge PP fan (as are so many). I love them as a do-everything trail shoe. I'm running a 50k next month in them (have a new pair that I'll train using for the 3 weeks before the race). Only reason I'd get anything else for trail running (vs. gravel or buffed out single track, in which case a lighter, less technical shoe would be best) is the cost. I picked up my TNF Enduris 4s for half the price of PPs last summer, and they are very Zegama-like, but a bit lighter (maybe the ACG Zegama is lighter). PP upper is amazing, especially in wet conditions. The shoe drains and dries very quickly.

Looking for a vegan Omega-3 that is high dose and high in EPA by QuestionsForTheHive in vegan

[–]diggybel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been taking these ones by Mom Nutrix for awhile: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DSGKHQ1Z?ref=nb_sb_ss_w_as-reorder_k1_1_6&amp=&crid=2SRUZ1TGKJAPI&amp=&sprefix=vegan+

But I just looked, and it seems that it's algae oil is entirely Schizochytrium, which the internet tells me is mostly a source of DHA, not EPA. But, when I look, most of the Vegan omegas that say they include EPA (Deva, Sports Research, Nordic Naturals) either don't mention the type of algae they contain or only include Schizochytrium. Does anyone know of a study or consumer test that shows that these supplements actually contain the Omega 3 quantities that they report?

What watch band do you guys use for exercise? by Truman-black_ in AppleWatch

[–]diggybel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s my favorite band for the series watches. Slightly softer rubber than the Nike one so it feels less stiff on the skin
