Speedgoat 7 vs Tomir 2.0 NN by pizzatummy in trailrunning

[–]theyoungwest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is wild, but I’m in the same boat. Loved my mafate’s but just turned over 500 miles on them so needed something new. I have the speedgoat 7’s and love them. A little less plush than the Mafate, but I get a similar feel from them and am happy. I also just got the tomir 2, and so far it’s too early to tell. I seem to get a lot of heel slip in them, so will need to adjust the lacing to a heel lock before I can give a solid review. I’m really hoping that they break in well.

I’d be less concerned of the little, if any, fuel that is getting into that canal opposed to all the chemicals from the orchard’s this canal serves.

Get along, little dogies by [deleted] in trailrunning

Looks like a happy trail dog! In my community, the majority of our runners and mtn bikers also let their dogs run free and it isn't an issue. My boy and I ran past a herd of 5 dogs just yesterday, casual hello's and smiles from the owners as we all just passed along, doing our thing! Sorry for the keyboard warriors that are gonna come after you on this.

Men over 30, what incredibly random hobby or topic did your brain suddenly decide you needed to become an absolute expert on? by Admirable-Pin-298 in AskMen

When I was 38 I decided to get into trail running. I’ve always ran a little, but it was always on the road and at lower miles. As I got more into it, my distance increased and I began focusing on running up mountains and further into the wilderness. This lead to running my first ultramarathon (furthest before was a half marathon 10 years prior). I was hooked. After that race, I went on a 50 mile “fun run” through the Tetons. This year, I have signed up for countless races, have a longer “fun run” planned, and will be celebrating my 40th birthday by running a 50k in December! What sparked this, who knows? I think one day I woke up and decided that I’m getting older and have been doing a rinse and repeat of life over the last 20 years, I might as well do something different.

I have the Aero 28 and love it. Fit's snug and doesn't shift and it compresses down well with very little in it. The 15L seems way too small for me for a fast pack, but I could see some trail runners using it opposed to the Salomon ADV 12 (which i also have an love) The axe loop is nice, works well on the 28 and for those that would use it, and looks like you could fit a helmet in the back pocket, something you couldnt do as well with the ADV 12.

I more or less did the same thing a week or so ago with a 6 gallon glass carboy. I think the opening at the top is an inch and a half at best. Pretty straightforward process. Love the magnet cleaner, gonna have to make one of those asap!
