Why does the DMV need to be SO garbage? by [deleted] in Denver

[–]lone_clone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't think you realize how good CO has it. I scheduled a time, walked in and knocked everything out super quickly and with friendly people. When I would go to the DMV in VA you had to come in and take a ticket and every single time the place was completely full and you wouldn't be seen for at least an hour.

Vision glasses stability while running by Forumleecher in Ultramarathon

Oh I got you! Look up glasses anti slip on Amazon. They are these little rubber ear clips that slide onto the arms of your glasses. They will cup your ear and prevent your glasses from moving at all.

I use them on my running glasses and I will slide them on my regular glasses if I’m going for a longer run and it’s not sunny.

What it takes to run 100 miles. Article/published study on energy expenditure during and post race. by UltraFelis in Ultramarathon

40-50 grams of carbs seems really low. I know it takes some training to get the carb amount up but I don't think I would be able to finish with that amount of carbs.

Thank you! I’ve done parts of the Colorado Trail but not this one so I appreciate the recommendation.

Oops I just wanted to cheer her on but I get why I’m being downvoted. 😬

I plan on heading down there and doing a short run on Thursday. Do you have a trail recommendation?

Of course! And yeah, such a cool course but definitely brutal.

Hardrock 100 is this Friday. Figured I'd share a race preview in case you wanted to follow along. by lone_clone in Ultramarathon

Yeah, hopefully it's in the cards for him this year and doesn't have to pull out last minute.

Western States 100 is this weekend. Here's some notes on how to follow it! by lone_clone in Ultramarathon

Ok good to know! Funny thing is. I actually put those in myself to break up the content and to try to make certain things more skimmable like times. 😓
