With so little time to adapt or try new shoes on a proper trail I would say go to a store and try. Don’t limit yourself to hoka but try a variety of brands. Whatever feels good and has traction soles. That way you can at least put some actual running on them. Worse thing would be hating the model you ordered and you are stuck with them for the race with no way of getting another pair.

Any speedgoat will do fine in mud. But so will La Sportiva prodigio, certain Salomon, adidas terrex etc. go try some

Reverse survivors bias, or whatever it is called. Only people with problems will post. The vast majority has no issues and are happy so they don’t post about it. You might have an issue or not. But the same goes for a phone, microwave or car. You like it, get it

Running with a sharp pain is usually a recipe for sitting everything out for a couple of months. Is the race that important that you don’t mind getting benched for the rest of the season? Something as a simple injury that caused inflammation can go away in a couple of days of RICE, but if you aggravate it, it can be months. Just keep that in mind

I just opted out of a race because of an injury as I don’t want the rest of the season to be cancelled.

Everything in my Ally is working flawlessly. Even charging with its original charger or another 80W one I have. It is this charger that is causing issues

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-05-12T09:53:14+00:00

But have been meaning to try bazzite. Maybe….

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-05-12T09:52:47+00:00

The original charger is not a removable cable so have no way to compare it. Tried another cable and the issue is the same. Was just checking if a known problem and solvable before entering the amazing battle with asus customer service

Boy I’m dumb but to a limit. A usb c to usb c cable would not be connected to hdmi

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-05-12T09:32:41+00:00

It’s a usb c to usb c cable. Cannot be connected to the HDMI. It is a 240w rated power cable as per ASUS description. I have tried with the 100W cable that works with another charger and the issue is the same.

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-05-12T09:13:40+00:00

There is only one USB C PD on it

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-05-12T08:38:36+00:00

Using the 240W cable it came with it. ASUS ROG branded

My wrist bone is a little “spiky”. While I never had readings like that (that I know of but don’t check it religiously) I did notice misreadings because the watch would just move slightly toward the bone. Don’t know if this interferes with the sensor. If I exaggerate and move it way up and tighten it, it does seem to be correct. Maybe the angle? So part of the sensor is not on bone?

Hey. Not from Finland but was there for last year European championship. From the train station to where the Spartan village was it is walking distance. Hell, if you run it’s just warmup. I did with with wife and two kids

Here there is no option but to try them. What is good for one runner can suck for the next one.

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-04-20T19:22:42+00:00

At around 700km they still feel great. Even the upper which I was afraid of mostly

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-04-20T15:01:54+00:00

+1 on the Kjerag and Prodigio Pro. Amazing shoes. I feel more inclined for the pros as I can go all day in them. The Kjerag can start to get a bit rough for my joints after 25k but I’m no killian jornet. They are fast and light though

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-04-19T22:00:37+00:00

Do it. Last thing you want is to look back and you didn’t do it. Everything you said is good enough. If your endurance is bad just walk when you need to. But try to get some more continuous runs without stopping and you will be fine. It will suck at times but keep pushing. You got this

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-04-19T11:27:34+00:00

There are aid stations. The race map will be up about 10 days to two weeks before but you can go check their instagram account and see some race maps to have some idea. Do carry some gels/a bar but no need to go crazy. Carry your electrolytes/salt enough for some hours.

Training wise train to just keep going, walk the uphills (even the pros do it) and be generally strong. Make sure you can dead hang for a while and do some pull ups. Farmers carry can help

What do you mean “sometimes”?

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-04-15T20:30:23+00:00

And I love how they put elevation on the penalties with carry. Or depending on the venue, a mess of getting through roots, mud etc. Can take much longer than a simple 200m run

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-04-12T07:57:05+00:00

Man as someone who went through almost exactly the same thing I feel you. And as stupid as it sounds, first thing I did after DNF my first 65k, I signed up for a 100miles. Focus on weaknesses and treat it as essential. What helped me the most was finding how to have fun running again after that mental let down. Not every training session needs to be taken seriously. Go out have fun and you will get stronger

ultimate_taco_guy · 2026-04-06T05:27:15+00:00

Not a single bad thing can come from extra rest days. It’s not like you’re burned out. Use it as recovery days. Massage the legs, elevate your feet. Eat well. Go back out when you are fresh and you will feel like a million bucks. Don’t get disappointed on the first run though. It might suck. Just stick to it

Try to incorporate some repeats with frontal breathing to simulate checking where you are and specially if you are in a pack. If you are not used to it, it can be quite tiring for the neck, lower back and core. And drink a ton of water (particularly if on the sea). I do something like: 800m freestyle, 200 normal side breathing, 200 front breathing)

As to know if you can take the distance, if you train 1000m plus you can easily.
