The Running Thread

[washing machine]

Flying on those kinvaras today. I feel like I could have doubled the mileage, except I have a super long 16 hour shift ahead of me and didn't want to burn myself out before the day even began.

[Dev]

i dont really give a fuck what a shoe looks like for running. just performance.

[Dev]

would just do errands in bostons if i could tho. because they are the coolest looking.

[washing machine]

ftr i also would like to wear a kinvara and i would do it but again i cant even fit in the 2e version.

What's your favorite kinvara colorway?

Actually, you don't seem the type to care about frivolities like that. Respect.

[ghost]

Nothing like the feeling of floating on new shoes.

Dev, I also have fat ass feet. You might consider Hokas, which run a bit wider even in standard sizes.

No, I do appreciate good colorways. I appreciate them a lot.

I was gonna get the yellow kinvaras.

I felt cramped in bondi 2E's.

They didn't have all the sizes tho. Another half size up might have been ok. But I end up having way too much toe space if I size up for width.

Honestly though I ran on the treadmill in the Bondi's and it was crazy. Like a dream. I could run 3 half marathons a week in those things. No impact.

I've never worn Bondis, just Cliftons and Challengers (trail). I do size up a half size though.

I am gonna try and snipe either some Bondis or Cliftons at sale price some day.

My brother in law runs on Cliftons and swears by them. It took him a long time to start running because he's over 40 with lingering knee trouble, but now I look on his Strava and see him consistently hitting sub 8 minute 5ks. Hokas are probably a good idea for all the concrete we all run on in this city.

My wife got a 15 percent off code in the mail from Saucony. I got pretty excited because I read the fine print and it didn't say the Endorphin line was excluded like every other promotion they have. I tried the code and it didn't apply The only color they have right now is mutant white anyway and even though they look cool they'd be dirty looking in a month. I'm going to wait for a new colorway I really like to drop before I pay $160 on shoes.

[washing machine]

Good plan.

Looking at the forecast, Sundays high temp is 1 degree. Going to need to take advantage of the next few days if I want to avoid too much treadmill.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

i'd rather be fat than run on a treadmill

[verb_to_trust]

I'm pretty sure I gain weight when I run too much on the treadmill

What percentage of the year do you run in extreme temps?

What percentage of the year do you run in extreme temps?

50 percent. There are really only two seasons in Illinois: summer and winter.
