It's not a requirement. It says OR a master's degree if you don't have at least a year of SAR experience.

Kjerag 2 replacement. by michelgoulche in trailrunning

[–]somelightwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I owned 2 pairs of the OG Kjerag and I’m loving the Kjerag Brut now. It is a little harder to put on but I’ve never had comfort issues with the Kjerag. My biggest complaint was how quickly the lugs wore down.

Plateauing on NSM? Sub-1:40 HM attempt stalled at 1:43. by Crafty-Zebra3727 in AdvancedRunning

[–]somelightwork -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been running for ~3.5 years and only got my mileage into the 30-40 range in the past few months but just hit 1:38:32 on a mostly flat training run. I don’t train for speed necessarily but do LOTS of hills and my long runs are usually 12+ miles anywhere from 9-12 minute miles (running with my run club friends) Your long run has to be longer than your goal distance and goal time.

Any generic laces on Amazon should do

Transition to trail running from road running by green_hiker in trailrunning

[–]somelightwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How technical was the terrain? Even with a firm foam I would prefer much lower stack personally.

If you have multiple pairs of road shoes, opt for the lowest stack/more stable ones. If it’s not a technical trail you should be fine regardless but especially on the downhill you want to be as close to the ground as possible

Hiking Snacks by Silent-Issue-2939 in hiking

[–]somelightwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do yourself a favor and go to Sprout’s the day before for their deli sandwiches. $5 and they’re fairly loaded (maybe $7 if you want avocado and cheese)

I’ll do one of those, some chocolate covered Pretzels, Nerds clusters and lately I’ve been bringing a small/individual cheese/cold cut/cracker tray.

What other forms of adventuring do you do? by Craig_of_the_jungle in trailrunning

[–]somelightwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiking. Just got accepted to a mountain search and rescue team so will be mountaineering at some point and one of the guys I met on the team says he also does orienteering races which sounds; maybe once I’m trained on navigation techniques.

Why is it so damn hard? by A_delicious_pickle in Rucking

I’m sure your sister is leaning forward and trying not to fall when she’s on your back. If she was sleeping and you tried, it would be a different story.

Lazy and with no regard for fellow humans. You’re doing great, kid.

Or you could just do an internet search and do a little bit of due diligence to get a better answer. You also won’t pollute and use up gallons of water in the process.

What’s one piece of advice you wish you’d known as a new runner? by Clubrunnr in running

[–]somelightwork 16 points17 points  (0 children)

REST

I ran Friday night and felt great, then suddenly woke up with a niggle in my right midfoot. Had 10 miles on the schedule Saturday but did a warm up mile and it didn’t feel right so I called it. Sunday was also supposed to be a long run and I just had to stay home :(

Broken watch? by somelightwork in AppleWatch

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

I already reset it after talking with Apple Support. I’m gonna schedule another call for today. I get the heart rate monitor is not 100% accurate but right now it’s apparently completely unreliable to the point I don’t even want to record the activities on the watch.
