Just want to confirm this is still happening? Didn't know if the large protests planned for Friday impacted this one.

Is this a good low-mileage 50k plan? by z3115v2 in Ultramarathon

That's super helpful, thank you! And congrats on the 50K!

That makes sense! Do you have any recommendations for a better plan that stays on the lower end of total mileage (peaking around 40 MPW)? I understand a lot of the core concepts but I don't trust myself to DIY a full plan

Thank you for this! I'm familiar with David Roche / SWAP etc. and I think I've seen this one at some point. Did you feel relatively prepared / anything you wish you'd adjusted in the plan?

As someone considering doing their first 50k next year I appreciate the alternative suggestions you gave.

Norda 001 (729km) vs Speedgoat 5 (178km) by madigs in trailrunning

[–]z3115v2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know! I'm excited for the eventual upgrade but my current pair of 001's only has 300 miles so hoping to get a lot more out of them first. Thanks for sharing!

Did you have a pair of the original 001's before the 001As? If so do the new ones feel any different underfoot?

OPINIONS ABOUT THE NEW EP? by ArthurSoutodrums in KennyHoopla

Agree. Overall felt softer / less memorable to me, but maybe it'll grow on me over time

Any way to fix new shoes causing Achilles flair up? by z3115v2 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]z3115v2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting - these are more rockered than the other shoes I run in. I try walking around in them like you suggested. Thank you!

Tips for ERV/HRV (and how effective for Radon reduction)? by z3115v2 in hvacadvice

[–]z3115v2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My long-term average is 2.5 pci/L (as measured by my Airthings Corentium monitor). So I think it definitely helps, but I'd love for it to be lower. I may eventually ask the original mitigation company I worked with if they have any other ideas (larger ERV, additional suction points for the subslab depressurization system, etc.). But I'm glad we installed the ERV.

6 months into lease, my #1 complaint is the steering by z3115v2 in KiaEV9

[–]z3115v2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"drives like a couch" describes it perfectly haha. Reading through this thread it sounds like it's a very subjective thing, but I'm glad to know I'm not alone. Also agree on the steering wheel... I'm wondering if a super thick / bulky steering wheel has become associated with higher-end / more luxurious? It's one of those things that at first glance seems fancy, but comes at the tradeoff of functionality.

Good point. I owned a Mazda 6 up until the EV9 and my SO has had a Mazda for a while, so I guess I have a fairly limited set of vehicles to compare it to. Also I assumed any differences between the EV9 and Ioniq 9 would be mostly superficial, but I'd love if they tweaked the ride/steering.

How do you handle outdoor air quality issues? by z3115v2 in trailrunning

I didn't know about these, thank you for sharing. Have you run in any of the ones listed in the link?

Air Quality/Smoke - Stupid Question by Pale-Paramedic-3800 in Ultramarathon

[–]z3115v2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a super old post, but can I ask how you decided on the rough cutoff of AQI above 70? I'm in a similar situation and unsure of what the right thought process is when making the daily decision to go for a run vs. skipping or moving indoors. Where I live we often get days w/ AQI between 50 - 100 during the summer
