    Love the of the requirement to carry a collapsable cup - at a trail event yesterday in Ireland and easily a couple hundred plastic cups used/wasted. I'll start to promote this idea here!

    So amazing to have you back doing the Steep Life episodes. It's like seeing an old friend again after a long time. I know it's a big task doing almost daily videos, but I really hope that you will have the time and energy to start doing them again on a regular basis. Good luck with your training and racing towards Barkley. I will be following along from Denmark.

    Thanks for the timely tips. Running first ultra this weekend (Everglades Ultra 50k) and have been stressing what to put in vest, and drop bags. Sunny and hot forecast (Damn!) has taken a bit of uncertainty out of the process. Please keep up these "How to" videos, they are very informative.

  • @verticalmax9094
    @verticalmax9094 7 лет назад +1

    Super useful video Jamil! I think u should do these kind of videos before every race analyzing the type of race, weather, distance and required items. Here in Europe the approach is not so minimal and we end up carrying packs stuffed of layer, double pants...I know that's for safety purpose but sometimes it gets challenging even before a registration especially if you are on a budget. Any tips for reducing pack's weight without buying super expensive items? Can't wait for the race recap!! Cheers from Italy!

    It's been a really warm winter this year. I'm in Logan, but I just moved from the Wasatch front and we've barely seen snow. I imagine you'll see some snow though depending on your altitude. But I have heard that it might get a little cold this week. Can't wait to see how things go.

    Great to see the videos back in play, Jamil! They always inspire me to get out to the trails. I really like my Sense Rides, but could use a more robust rock plate. They’re the first pair of Salamons that have the forefoot room I like. How do the Ultra Pros compare in width?

    Wanted to say thanks for the content. Long time runner, new to ultras. Was curious about sizing on the Bonatti Pro. I’m 6’ 155. Usually in between med and large. With it going over a pack do you have any suggestions. Thanks again for the inspiration. My first ultra is Dead Horse in Moab.

  • @steveilg6134
    @steveilg6134 7 лет назад +3

    nice! have you tried the Kahtoola NanoSpikes? most of us Colorado runners use them more than the MicroSpikes. they are lighter and less abrasive on your shoes/feet than the Micro's...plenty of traction, however. check 'em out sometime! Dharma Blessings from the high San Juans and kill it in Utah!

    • @runsteepgethigh
      @runsteepgethigh  7 лет назад

      I tested them at the Running event real quick. I had no issues with the microspikes during my race but unfortunately don’t get much use since i live in the desert!

  • @Shibu11229
    @Shibu11229 5 лет назад

    How well does the BONATTI PRO WP JKT keep you dry in heavy rain? Last time I ran in moderate rain I used a Smartwool Merino Sport Ultra Light Hoodie and my jacket underneath still got soaked.
    Where do you store the BONATTI PRO WP JKT? Do you keep it folded up into its own pocket or do you stuff it into one of the other pockets in your vest/pack for easier access while you are running? Which pocket?

    Hey, I have really enjoyed watching your youtube channel. I know this video is from 2 years ago, but I was wondering which Salomon shoes you prefer now. I am transitioning to Salomon for distance running and I am looking for the best shoe for 50k or longer. It seems to me, that their shoes are so similar in fit and cushioning.

  • @stighw
    @stighw 7 лет назад

    I currently have the Ambit 3 Run from Suunto and love it. Only thing is it has about 10-11 hours of best accuracy GPS settings. (1 sec gps fixes) I want to run a 100 miler and think I need about 24 hours of battery. The Ambit 3 Peak says it can do 24 hours on 5 sec accuracy which should be good enough. Would appreciate tips from Jamil or others that have the Peak on what to expect. The 1 min gps udate gives 100 hours on the ambit 3 run I have but that is way to rough for my liking..

    • @runsteepgethigh
      @runsteepgethigh  7 лет назад +1

      You can plug it into a small usb power bank via the charging cord mid race to top it up. Keep the best accuracy that way.

    • @stighw
      @stighw 7 лет назад

      That is true. I always think of making it the least hassle possible though, and I`m a minimalist on weight and stuff to carry. But it is an alternative to buying a new watch. I`ll look into lightweight power banks.
