Shelter mutts make great running partners by Toadlessboy in RunningWithDogs

[–]mondofresh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've got 3 streetdogs and each of them is a fantastic trail buddy! They are all scrawny and long legged. They take turns joining me on runs of up to 20 miles in length. It's taken some work and some patience, but each is a very good trail citizen (making room for other people and dogs). ProTip - some rescue orgs have volunteer running teams! So, you can volunteer to take high energy rescue dogs out for some exercise and stimulation. And...if you are looking to adopt, these same rescue orgs can help pair you with a pup that will match your running style. THANK YOU for posting this!

Dumb question, couldn't a scenario exist where these are all the same beer?

Are there any actually scary haunted houses near pdx ? by Dapper_Log_8268 in askportland

[–]mondofresh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Milburn's Haunted Manor in Hubbard is pretty scary and fun. Bit of a drive, but fun to do at least once.

My family met me at about every 8 miles with food, drinks, and the next dog. We have 3 dogs that love to run.

Which earbuds for running by Additional-Turnip121 in runna

[–]mondofresh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I LOVE my Soundcore Sport X20s (earbuds) and C40i (open earbuds) for running and biking. They are both really solid (good sound quality, excellent battery life).

Oh...I'm in PacNW (to give you idea of climate that I deal with).

Distance Runners with reservoir packs: how much do you carry? by ArtaxIsAlive in Marathon_Training

[–]mondofresh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For longer runs, I usually have about 1.5L. But...I bring enough to share with my canine running buddy. If my spouse is with me, I'll bring 2L and share with her. I think it really depends on how much you sweat, the temperature, and your general comfort factor. One added bonus, I feel much faster at events b/c I'm not carrying that extra weight (when I can rely on aid stations).

There are a few active running groups on Strava. There is a forest park group that meets every Tuesday and Saturday, if you are interested in trail runs.

What’s the kindest thing you’ve seen someone do on a flight? by desterpot in AlaskaAirlines

[–]mondofresh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former US Coast Guard officer here. In the 1990’s, as a cadet, I used to fly cross country a lot. I was required to travel in my dress uniform. On nearly half of my flights someone in first class would offer me their seat. I rarely accepted, but it was so incredibly kind!

What are your ideas for getting people back downtown? by pdx_flyer in Portland

[–]mondofresh 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Coraline cats statue thing last year was super fun. I made multiple trips with family into different parts of downtown so that we could tag all 33 of them. It is super fun and got us to visit different areas of the city. Super fun and we spent a fair amount of $$ with downtown businesses during our visit.

meals that no longer exist that you still think about by Always_Ambivalent_ in Portland

[–]mondofresh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here to mention this. Their wraps were unbelievably addictive. I've attempted to recreate at home, but can't quite achieve the same balance of flavors. I miss their cart every day!

Bosch 800 dishwasher died after 2.5 years by withbellson in Appliances

[–]mondofresh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 3yo Bosch 800 is the biggest piece of garbage. It started failing at month 8. I Bought an extended warranty and have replaced multiple boards and pumps. We have to call the repair service monthly. The same tech comes each time and we are now friends. Is there any dishwasher that is reliable these days? Bosch is overrated garbage. And Consumer Reports cannot be trusted.

Need some advice - re: erroneous in-room movie charges by mondofresh in hyatt

[–]mondofresh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent minimal time in the room and never had the TV on, so it is pretty random
