How long did it take you and also did you leave any caches at the Saddle? I'm thinking of doing this in the next few weeks for my ultramarathon coming up. Thanks!

Recently bought a pair of the T1 and H1, unfortunately had to exchange the H1 for a half size up so I haven't ran it them yet. Today did a 12 mile train run with some technical terrain with the T1 and rolled my left ankle several times. No excruciating pain or swelling just some weakness. This was my 4th long trail run I've ran in them and have rolled the same ankle already in them. I exclusively ran long trails in the speedgoat 6s and haven't rolled an ankle in those. Anyone have the same experience with the T1s? Overall love the shoe but can't get used to the ankle rolling on technical descents

Hello all, this sub has been amazing for everything ultrarunning.

I'm currently dealing with a very mild shin splint on just my right leg, its a very slow throbbing ache that actually fades in pain during activity but shows up after my run. My last long run was on June 6th (15 miles). I tried running 2 days afterwards and pulled the plug after 4 miles because I slightly felt tightness in only my right leg (2 inches above my inner ankle bone). I have stayed completely off of running on it for 6 days, pain has decreased slightly but it still has a very dull ache (pain scale of a 1-3/10 depending on what I'm doing).

I know that rest is absolutely key to preventing a prolonged injury and am very familiar with strength training protocols to rehab from this. Has anyone been in similar positions where they were in the midst of training for a high vert 100 miler and got shin splints? Should I still run or completely rest and focus on strengthening the area with various leg exercises? If I do choose to run, should I keep to flat and predictable terrain and keep up with frequency or should I do a mixed bag of terrain and distances with intermittent resting days?

For reference, I am training for the Angeles Crest 100. My aerobic output is in a strong place, this just kind of happened out of the blue and don't want to do anything that will exacerbate the injury. What do you guys think?

Thank you!

I love reading race reports! Also, what are your thoughts on this year's changes (early October start and the course starting and ending in Altadena)? Did you run it crewed or solo? Thanks guys.

Today I received an email referencing a specific day that I clocked out 15 minutes later than my scheduled time and I was flagged for not "working" during that 15 minute window. I thought this was weird considering at my job we sometimes have to leave a little later than our scheduled time due to the nature of the job (customer service heavy). This email was also a reminder that every time I do this again, I will be documented and written up for.

This was the first email I ever received of anything like this in the almost 5 years of being with the company. I discussed this with my coworker and they also had a similar occurrence where they started receiving emails about the times they were taking their lunch were not during the "approved and scheduled time" (they were taking them before her 5th hour just not during when our employer scheduled it on the application we use to clock in and out).

We were disclosed that these cameras were going to be used for asset protection and to protect us and the customers. My ass.... I'm disturbed and also frustrated that this was implemented at work with almost no one knowing that this could be used against us.

Mass surveying of employees for the sole purpose of tracking productivity should seriously be illegal, how the fuck is this even a thing? How did we get here as a society where employers have more rights over our own privacy? Is there anything I can do? How is this even legal?

Hello,

I currently am in sales at the moment and have been doing this job for over 4 years. Some major stuff at work changed for everyone across the company and I'm stuck with no options fighting against it (no more flexible scheduling and lowered pay). I live in Riverside, and would prefer to work here or very close by. I hold a Bachelors and an Associates but unfortunately in fields that are requiring experience rather than a degree and I'm stuck needing to get experience first.

Since my job hunting I've started in November, I've noticed there are a lot of the same jobs within the area and not much variability. I don't know if I'm not looking hard enough or if it really is harder to look for different types of jobs here in the IE. What's some jobs that average $45-50K annually that are not retail, food or warehouse that I should search for? Is anyone else in a similar situation? If yall have no advice, care to offer some kind words? 🥲 Thanks fellow neighbors.
