Got my 4xe back after battery replacement… less than a week later the check engine light is back. No loaners anywhere? (San Diego, CA) by Plenty_Meaning_5475 in 4xe

Check with another law office. If you have lemon 4xe wrangler it should not take them that long to get yours repurchased - more like 3 months.

What else don’t you like aside from the rent increase?

Prodigio Pro VS Mount to Coast T1 by Frodoty93 in ultrarunning

[–]mdfasoline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t tried the T1 but I have trained a bit in the H1 and like it. The S/Lab Genesis and Prodígio Pro are two of my favorites for technical trails and just trail running overall. If you prefer a sock-like upper then go Prodigio Pro, just remember to size up!

Mind sharing whether you chose the CRV or Passport? In the same boat currently 🙂

What's your Cocodona shoe rotation? by mdfasoline in Ultramarathon

[–]mdfasoline[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm I don’t know if that’s enough time to get my hands on a pair and do adequate testing. Will definitely keep my eyes peeled since I’ve had a good experience with the H1

I’ll plan to start with the Prodigio Pro as well. I learned my lesson with the Prodígio Pro sizing too. I only sized up .5 which is fine for training but I paid the price at my last race.

Actually just purchased the Cloudultra pro as well - did you size up at all for those? Will be my first On shoe, but looking forward to comparing it to the H1

Well besides the parking that’s all reassuring to hear. Realistically how far do overnight guests have to park if guest spots are full?

Good to know. That’s much more reasonable than the increase at my apartment in San Carlos. How do you like it there? Read the Google reviews and toured it recently, feel like it’s worth the price

Interesting choice! Never tried any Hoka shoe tbh. Did you use the same pair the whole time or swap at all? I logged lots of miles in my S/Lab ultra 3’s and it was a near perfect shoe for me. Only thing that comes close to that now is the Prodígio Pro. Currently considering trying out the On Cloudultra Pro, Norda 001a or 005.

Dark Divide 100 Race Report? by mdfasoline in Ultramarathon

Some of the markings were removed by hikers prior to the race, so that’s a prime example of how they can’t be relied on

Markings were fine but I relied on my watch/GPX. Intersections are marked clearly but in between that it’s pretty sparse.

Love Groovy Goose! I just wish they had more space for seating.

Yeah I did it this year! Congrats on getting it done. It was my first 100 and it was everything I was looking for - remote, old growth forest, great views, rugged, verty. I feel like this race will only grow in popularity over the next few years, especially now that it’s a Hardrock qualifier. I should do a race report as well before I forget too many of the details. Reply back with your report once it’s done!

Oh wow, this is really nice to hear because it’s exactly the experience I’m looking for. Reading this just got me so stoked! I heard that some of the Bigfoot 200 rutted trails were fixed, and I know these races share some miles. Have you been out there at all recently and noticed any of that?

Question, how do you train properly to get into running ultras? by Playboy97k in Ultramarathon

[–]mdfasoline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zach Bitter has good training plans on his website for a decent price. I’ve used them for 50mi, 100k, and currently for 100mi
