I've got handheld 2 ultimate direction bottles one for each hand, Nathan 2v elite, which is a waist pack with two 22 oz bottles, and I also have a Nathan Cenergy Pack for when Im on a really really long solo run. I will couple the waist pack with the back...

Re: Running help please whiskey, If you want to know how it works go and try it, if it doesnt work for you then you know it's BS. But I think ATH knows what he is talking about and I also agree with his advice. Some of my fastest races have come a week after some of my longest runs.

Re: Joining the Army in a year and need fitness tips get strong in your core(torso strength). If your not stable you will end up injured. I saw one person list that the tri athlete training would work well for you. I agree with that. I suck at swimming but I can run and bike like a freak...

Re: adventure race shoes I have run in a variety of shoes. For tough terrain i wear one of three shoes. The salomon speed cross is good for muddy, loose dirt smallrocks, wet grass conditions. The La sportiva crosslite is very similar but can be used in additional conditions of med to large...

Re: Running 140 miles in a week ATH, where are you running your 50 miler? You said second attempt, meaning you finished the first and now you want a sub 7 hr finish? Ive not done Leadville, but have a couple friends that have. Looks a sounds like a good and tough course.

Re: Your best ever kill shot? I was 15 yrs old, the first time I deer hunted. The first deer I shot at. In my state its slug only. The deer was 80 yds standing still. I emptied my gun and never touched the deer. The deer decides that Im no threat so it lays down. I reload my gun and walk to...
