Brooks Adrenalin here. I get about 350 - 375 miles a pair, buy 3 pair every 6 months then destroy them. Mix of sidewalk and trails. The cracked rib is still painful but whatcha gonna do?

Long story short, am on my 4th pair of Hokas....

I've been in Hokas since they hit the market here a few years ago. I used to run in Asics Kayanos but tried the Hoka and was sold immediately. That cushioning is like running with a marshmallow under your foot and I have never had a lighter shoe.

My wife is a dedicated Brooks fan so we have a mixed marriage.

What it comes down to is that our biomechanics are so varied and our activities are as well, it really does impact what shoe is best for the individual.

Yes, with a strong stroke, one may end up on one of the Hawaii beaches.

Lordy,Lordy Logo, yous the guy I perspire to be like. Wish I had your tanassity to keep up the floor exercises, day in, day out. I take the easy path and spend every day outside doin something to keep the fuel lines open.

Did a 12 mile(return), 3600', 4 hour hike yesterday up a muddy trail with my wife and another couple. They set a brutal pace for me as I have been taking it a bit easier than they have these last 3 weeks. Good views up top but deadly skeeters. Day before was a 2 hour road ride, first since the rib mishap. Day before that, 2 hours of fast hiking taking deep breaths. Super Dave is back. Ribs still a bit tender but nothing is in my way now.

Took the canoe off the truck, won't need it for the next month. Hooked up the trailer, will have the MTB's and road bikes plus running shoes/boots for hiking. Our area(1.5 times bigger than France) has opened up and it is time to see some of the places that have been missed over the years. Europe can wait till next year. Got our 30 day itinerary, come home for a few days, then back atter until September.

Posted our blog awhile back with some of our fun. It is a bit behind but will try to enter some of our current activities while on the road. As someone said, "Without photos, it didn't happen."We head out on the 8th until August 4th.

Dave
