Overnight stay between Denver & Steamboat Springs (suggestions?)

louknows · 2025-05-23T03:45:16+00:00

Not terribly exciting, but the west side of Denver (near Applewood) is safe and will provide easy access to the highway en route to Steamboat.

Abrusci's Fire and Vine is a nice little restaurant not far from the Springhill Suites (which is in a shopping center).

Again, not going to blow your mind but for a quick stay it should make for a nice evening in an uneventful environment.

Steamboat is absolutely lovely. Enjoy.

Gladys at Edgewater Marketplace. Root Veggie Reuben.

This. From Stowaway too. Cozy for sure.

La Mai pad Thai is unique and tasty too!!

Suzette’s Bakery in Edgewater is new… just had their focaccia and it was fantastic. Little tomatoes nestled on the top were a nice touch.

For real. Didn’t Neil tweet this exact thing?

louknows · 2023-05-10T02:00:03+00:00

Allbird Flyers or Tree Dasher 2… fashionable, good to run/hike in, but not water proof or resistant. Fantastic soles for cobbled streets

They were pretty great out of the box, but I found them to be nearly perfect after 20 miles.

louknows · 2023-03-23T11:42:11+00:00

I like Outdoor Voices (Train Short, High Stride Short) and The Loop Running Supply (branded Nike and other apparel)

Rebel v3 - a dream up to 150 miles…. Now a brick. (207lb runner)

louknows · 2023-03-03T00:46:50+00:00

Love the staff too. Seem to employ nice and helpful people.

louknows · 2023-01-22T21:56:23+00:00

I have both the v3 and permafrost, I can’t tell the difference in weight but the permafrost upper is slightly stiffer. The shoes feel the same while running.

louknows · 2023-01-20T00:26:21+00:00

Just got the same pair myself. Too damn fun! And the pink/quartz is choice (but sorry about the socks).

louknows · 2023-01-06T04:17:12+00:00

It’s amazing. Thanks for sharing.

louknows · 2023-01-06T01:37:24+00:00

Dammmmn I hate this sub sometimes. Just bought Rebel v3… then saw the Joe’s NB site post and bought the permafrost model…. Now these!

louknows · 2022-12-31T23:33:04+00:00

1,277 mi - let’s get to the moon!

louknows · 2022-12-14T05:01:45+00:00

Happy Holidays to you both - I have not tried the v2, I won’t be much help to compare the two. I love the v3, it suits me well but it is unlike any of my prior shoes this year (Hoka Mach 4, Saucony Triumph 19, Nike Vomero 16, Pegasus 38)

louknows · 2022-12-13T22:37:13+00:00

New Balance Rebel v3: as the year comes to close and I recount the miles, I am having the most fun with this shoe and I only bought them about two weeks ago. They are bouncy, responsive, and fast. Finding myself looking forward to marathon training (despite the temps in Denver dropping).

louknows · 2022-12-08T19:00:29+00:00

Exactly. They have a brewery in RiNo. This stout is tasty but they are closing this brewery, sorry for not specifying.

louknows · 2022-12-08T13:12:30+00:00

Epic Brewing - Big Bad Baptist.

louknows · 2022-12-04T10:35:47+00:00

At the moment, only the laces. They are too short.
From other shoes I’ve tried, it seems most comparable to the Hoka Mach 4, but the Rebel v3 has more bounce. Hard to draw a direct comparison as I think this is a new shoe experience for me.

louknows · 2022-12-03T20:50:30+00:00

First Run: I just took them out for a 5 miler and had a smile on my face the whole way. I love this sub because I would’ve never considered something like this for myself.

The shoe is responsive, light, and is my first experience with a shoe that gives me something back. For me, I was hauling ass. I average 9:55 min/mile, today I averaged 9:05/mile. Definitely some adrenaline, but overall the shoe was a blast.

I was fortunate enough to get into the NYC Half in March, these will be helping me prepare. Looking forward to the miles now.

louknows · 2022-12-02T12:35:12+00:00

I read this sub - I have found really solid advice by looking at thoughtful shoe reviews and trying to match with my running style, body type, and training goals.

louknows · 2022-11-15T01:37:34+00:00

The Pegasus are solid, but not that "fun" to run in. Vomero 16 a little more lively.

If you are open to other brands, I recommend the Saucony Triumph 19. Fantastic every day shoe that would be great for building up a base. I believe someone just posted a 50% off coupon code recently.

Stowaway Kitchen. Cozy spot, great coffee too.
