I am just hitting double digits in my marathon build where I need to focus on hydration and nutrition. I tried Maurten gel. I find it super sweet. I ordered a couple individual gels from the feed to try. I am going to try the Maurten drink mix later this week. Great work on the 50k 👊🏿

Nice work💪🏼

I have been using Skratch High Carb and Gu Roctane. I generally do not use gels but I carry a small soft flask with maple syrup in it.

Just took my first run today and I love 'em already! However, I was trying to take the baskets off (to make them easier to get in and out of my waist pack) and when to the directions. The illustration shows just unscrewing them. Even with pliers, I couldn't budge them. Any clue from your experience?

Dean's books inspired me as well. Had the opportunity to run with him (and Rob Krar) one evening after the outdoor retailer show years ago. Heck of a story teller.

Aftershokz for headphones while running. 😊

great video keep it up man

Good luck at lost Souls. I wondered what the weather was like for the 60 km bunch. I did the 10 km and got stuck in cold and drizzle the whole way. I was happy I chose to wear long sleeves and a toque. The Calgary Marathon is one of my favourite events.

He such a bea dog. I wish i had time to get a GSP

Great honest informative video. Much appreciated sir. I'm getting some.

amazing video man you did all that mental battle and did the filming great work :) about what motivate me is the old me the lazy me the me that will not do something because of fear and pain ...yea hope you doing well and Stay Hard man :)

JLab extreme sport. Ones the wrap around your ear

I saw this popping g off on Strava and wondered what the lesson was going to be from it. Nice work by the way. I do use a single bud most times and it's a ton of history podcast (which I failed in high-school multiple times). Other times it's just self reflection on the longer run days. I settled on Jabra Elite as the acoustics are way above average, they are light, and they stay put. I think the newer version can be alternated separately charging on the go.

Great video... Hope to see you at Lost Souls.

Great job! I listen to audiobooks, podcasts and music. I use Apple ear pods. I don’t love them but will try a different brand once these die.

Is there any chance you can use an adjective besides "super"? Any would do: "very", "extremely", "amazingly"... there's hundreds of expressive modifiers in the English language.

Beautiful looking dog, and he looks very well trained! I’ll be looking for a dog to run/go on hikes with me in about a year, I’ve also looked at Dutch shepherds, and Belgian malinios, did you research these dogs when making your decision?

So run like Goggins to be in a wheelchair in your senior years. Goggins has not much insight into training science. He knows how to push himself and others but he does so ignoring all knowledge there is and by that ruining his and the body of his clients. There are more healthy ways to reach the same goals intelligent. I know some of his clients stories and he can be glad that he hasnt killed some by accident. His knees are destroyed right now and he can only run in pain. Completely unnecessary if he would have aknowledged tapering, resting and taken a coach instead of playacting one. If your constantly functionally overloading yourself in training you will destroy your body. Sure you can reprogram yourself but most important aspect is intensifying training in a healthy way.. This will not only strenghten your body but your mind adapts automatically to the higher training load. Instead of just pushing tell yourself before the session to not listen to your brain & feelings right now as its not a truth but just preprogrammed bias and reserve judgement for later, but during the run listen to your body and take warning signs serious. Knowledge is power to mental strenght not ignoring what your body is trying to tell you.

Just found your content.... Happy to support a Canadian runner. You going to watch to see if Jim will win wser next weekend?

I have the Leki Cross Trail FX Superlite's and am about to use them for Minotaur and then I'll be using them for Lost Souls 100k. They are incredible so far! Especially if you've just used more traditional hiking poles. The glove is fabulous and is super easy to use once you've test ran them them a couple times! I'd say these have bothered my hands less than the traditional hiking pole straps - you still feel some wear on your hands. But I haven't gotten the same awful blisters like I did with other poles. I also have the Salomon vest and quiver and these slide in e-z!

Great job capturing the 60km. Good to relive some of the race. Sure was nice to turn around and get the wind at our backs!

Interesting, looking forward to hearing more about these. I use mine without straps, but I see most people use straps. Also, it is strange that you can not adjust the length of the pole, some like to make them longer going down hill.

I ran the 60 km at the calgary marathon as well, finished 6 hours 11 minutes!

Great video. It was a magical day in Calgary. Come say hi at Lost Soul!

Pain cave!!!!. Love that saying.

Can't beat a bit of diy or gardening to do your body in 😂

Stop stealing watches

Epic... keep it lit !
