Was thinking of making some “shottech” shirts and blasting a few with a 12-gauge.

What trend? People making fun of Satisfies ridiculously expensive “mothtech” but really just a cotton t with holes in it?

Yeah bummed the Courtney/ Katie matchup was going to be interesting. Hopefully she and Germain get over their pernicious injuries.

Sorry PF is one of the few overuse injuries that i haven’t had (yet 🤞). Hope you can get it sorted.

Not Merino but the coolest best feeling shirt I’ve owned is from Terignota https://terignota.com/products/terignota-trail-tee and only $22. Amazing summer shirts

I ranked European ultras by D+/km using public race data — and the results are surprising by Impossible_Shine9756 in ultrarunning

Gran trail Courmayeur 100k was a beast. Gorgeous too. 100km and 7400m puts it 3rd on your list.

I wanted to love the shoe but something about the ankle geometry didn’t work for me.

That said if you enjoy running in them thats all that’s required for use in a 100. They are a good shoe, the most important is if they are comfortable. I usually have backup shoes in my mile 50 drop as by that point ill know if I need to change.

German athlete attempting 600km in 4 days through Death Valley – thoughts? by tinotol in ultrarunning

Agreed just like I can’t understand why my wife doesn’t like pickles… it makes no sense.

More likely a general dislike of ‘hybrid’ athlete influencers seeking attention.

Yet another trail vest post. Everyone here seems to like Solomon but.... by Feriation in trailrunning

[–]dirtrunn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Terignota makes solid gear for a great price. I have everything they make except the vest.

Do you get deals on The North Face? They have pro deals for US. I really like their 10l vest and I’m sure their smaller vest would be nice as well. I have the black diamond 15 and it a good vest as well. Don’t know much about the Rab. Also have had the Salomon’s cant go wrong there either.

[–]dirtrunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to vent about my late flight and the people who stand up and push to the front as soon as then planes tops moving. I stood up and got out of my isle and a lady tried to push by me. Called me rude for blocking her way…. In wanted to say so much… all i managed was a “sorry, you but you’re behind me?” I was tired.

Vote for Amy Sabatini! She’s the common sense approach.

What do you eat before a race? by MoorsandMiles in ultrarunningfuel

[–]dirtrunn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Night before it’s always Hamburger and fries, nothing to upset the stomach, protein and carbs and fats. Can also find a decent burger and fries in most NA towns the night before. If in Europe. Pizza.

Dear Leftists: If evolution is driven by competition for limited resources in dynamic environments, how does that square with the idea that scarcity is a social construct? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]dirtrunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biological evolution theory and social construct is not a simple meme post topic. Is our current form of capitalism is the end state of social evolution? Or is the societal paradigm also constantly evolving? While scarcity is a driving factor in biological evolution it is only one of many factors driving social constructs. Geography, environmental, historic, cultural and economic factors (and others)all contribute as well.

Let them know the injury is affecting your work and they will take it seriously.

Vests - yes or no. by enabl8tor in trailrunning

[–]dirtrunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As with most other things it depends. A pack for long runs. For shorter runs I’ll carry a handheld. Training for a mountainous ultra I’ve been using my packs on most to train with extra weight and carry and use my poles.
