WYO1016 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Awesome thread. I've been getting a ton of work done, and only during working hours. Also making time to talk some breaks with my wife (who is also working from home), and my marathon training is ON POINT these days. I also signed up for a professional development certificate through a university today. Gonna be lean, mean, and educated by the time they let me back in the office!

I'm just not used to walking so much, so I developed some bad habits to deal with soreness. I've been there. I thought my shoes were good, too, but it turns out they were completely wrong for my feet. It's night and day when you get some that work the way you need them to. Go to any reputable running store, get a gait analysis done, and try a ton of shoes (when we're allowed to do that again, of course). Your feet, joints, and muscles will thank you! Most stores will have old models on super sale. I tried out some Saucony Ride 8's when I first started getting into running, but wasn't willing to spend $120 on a pair of shoes. I was very willing to spend $50 on some Ride 5's though. They are still in my rotation, albeit on the way out. I've put a ton of miles on them. Got the Ride 8's a few years later when they went on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridgeview2 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 My fiancee and I literally spent all day yesterday in our pajamas playing video games. She's playing her DC Universe MMO and I'm switching between Resident Evil 2 Remake and Mass Effect 2. We baked a DiGiorno pizza for dinner with a few 805's. We are being a little more productive today, but yesterday was glorious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I'm wearing a few models old Nike Pegasus, which I did have a version fitted for me at one point, but my body has changed, and their design has changed since that happened. I need to get good shoes for running, as my next goal is to transition into actual running to start training for a 10k... once I get my endurance up that is.

bsu_alum9 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I feel like virtual races and fastpacking on-your-own mapped adventures are going to see a big rise in popularity. @happycamper have you heard of the Ultrapedestrian Wilderness Challenge? They have some pretty cool looking routes in the Cascades and Okanagan. Wild Idaho Endurance Challenge is a copycat one for Idaho/Oregon. These are basically just a collection of ultra-distance routes (40-100 miles) that you complete and 'win' a litte patch for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The roll bar really aligns the ankle well when you are running. It is a pretty stiff shoe though, at least the old gen 24s were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondego Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 There's a lot of awesome stuff people are doing in this thread. I've appreciated all the good ideas on projects to keep me busy. I've always wanted to work from home, and 2.5 weeks into this thing I think my wishes were spot on. Not having to commute 30-45 minutes each way (a fairly short commute, I know) has given me tons of extra time to do stuff around the house. So far that has included getting the garden prepped for planting and working on refinishing two bathrooms. I'd been planning on hiring a painter to repaint the rest of the house after the bathrooms were done, but all this extra time has made me think about doing it myself (although I hate painting).

No hurt feefees out there, we wouldn't have it any other way I actually wish I was more handy with wood working, dry wall etc but I've been building towers for the last 25yrs (since I was 18). My hobbies are building race cars, sand rails and the likes. I can literally build you a 2000' tower or put roll cage in a car but getting an angle cut right on a 2x4 is beyond me.
