20220205 Wear Notes

 28-29 degrees.  Light weight jacket, tights, long sleeve, drymax socks, Aurora BL shoes, merino mittens.

  • Jacket was fine at start.  Could have taken off.
  • Long sleeve worked fine.  Was brooks ugly shirt.  Could have gone to tech sleeve.
  • Drymax socks were warm! Originally had tape, but didn't need it.  Could have gone colder as almost too warm.  
  • Mittens worked fine.  Just a bit different than the gloves, but still ok.
Based on runwin and + 10 degrees, should have been able to get away with a vest and 3/4.  Likely would have been ok, but since pace was slower, still worked out.

Current Shoes (Sept 2019)

Currently Recommended for Different Uses, If I had to Pick One Today for Each Use (Sept. 2019): Races - Vaporfly Next% Tempo, Interval - Vaporfly 4%, Carbon X Hills - Razor 3, New Balance Rebel Easy, Long - New Balance 1080 v9 All Around - New Balance Beacon, New Balance Rebel Other Shoes: Adidas Prime Parley  - Will use on treadmill. Reebok Sweet Road 2  - On hold for use after RA 2. Reebok Floatride Forever Energy  - Will rotate them in after Beacon. Reebok Floatride Run Fast  - Ran in them recently, and they really feel like a racing flat.  I don't get as much feedback from them at paces above 9 min/mile. That said, as I increased my pace (i.e., faster), the shoes started responding better.   Salomon Sonic RA 2  - Surprisingly nice shoe.  It is a bit long.  Will have to test to see if can be a long run shoe.  Picked up on ebay for $48, what a deal.  Starting rotating this shoe in as I start decreasing the ...

20220206 Stryd Pod Calibration Change

 So, it seemed obvious today that the pod was still off.  It seems to be reading short of the intended distance based on 7 mile circuit and initial readings on my 11 mile run today.  I feel like .20 miles short on 7 miles.  So .0286 miles off per mile.  Current calibration is 99.3.  Reset to 100.  Current calculations indicate 102.25
