 It's rainy Saturday. Someone's warm though inside. Ain't comfy. That's the laundry basket in case you can't see that laundry basket. It's a good day to be running in some solomons. Nice and muddy and rainy and cold and wet in Colorado today. We love the rain because we don't get much of it. So going to Mount Falcon I'm gonna give it a go for a little PR again. A little PR. I want to keep getting faster. It's a little bit of a crazy Saturday. It was planting grass seed. The fame is just kind of chilling. Reading books, watching a little cartoon action on a Saturday morning. So Papa's gonna go pound some ground real quick. Oh man. The day march is on. Hope you're having a great Saturday aka Sunday because that's probably the surprise when you're watching this. Alright. The shoes ready to rock and roll. I guess it's not trail running if you don't fall. First fall in a while. Paying attention. I just wasn't paying attention. Three times up to the shelter. Never done that before. This is the shelter. And here's my track from the Solomon S lab. Sent six SG. Let's just say they arrived in the nick of time for this weather. Alright. I got to get off this mountain before it starts raining as well. Of course they're snowing on me. Holy snikies. Oh that hurt. That hurt. Test one two three in focus. I think we're in focus. Welcome. Welcome. This is a life vlog daily channel. This is not a gear review channel. This is not a running channel. This is a life channel. I'm just sharing my life with you. That's all. That's and so if you arrive to learn about this shoe right here. Welcome. But just know that this is not if you go back and look at the other 800 videos that I've published. It's all about life and seeking beauty working hard and loving others. Well today on Mount Falcon about eight hours ago because it is now 9 21 p.m. and I'm not giving up on this blog. I am not giving up. No I am not. After 800 ish. Not quite. Almost 800 ish in a row. We're gonna keep plugging along and film something for you that is of general value. So these shoes arrived in the mail from back country two days ago. Thank you back country. And basically I am stoked. I'm stoked and this is what I said two days ago. Number one reason I went with this shoe over another hoca or perhaps a La Sportiva or a Innov 8 or even Adidas is actually coming out with some pretty good trail shoes right now. It's the inner liner. The inner liner. You're looking at it right now on your screen and it might be a little hard to see but basically this inner liner is clutch for holding your foot like a bear hug. I love bear hugs. And so that's what I said two days ago about these shoes when my initial impressions were that it is gonna bear hug my foot and these lugs are gonna be clutch especially in the rougher conditions like today. It was raining in Colorado. We don't often get rain here. It's kind of dry here. And so when it rains you plant grass seed. You already saw that today and you go for a run in the mud and it's actually kind of fun for us you know high altitude Rocky Mountain runners to run in mud because we often don't get to do that. It's usually very dry and rocky. And so these shoes were clutch on Mount Falcon which if you're a local runner in Denver and why not? The question of the day have you ever run on Mount Falcon? Comment below and what did you think of it? Basically these shoes were incredible incredible in the mud. They rocked. These lugs on the bottom just annihilated the mud. I actually was running through the mud rather than around the mud. So I love the shoe. I'm excited about it. I'm excited to take this shoe up the 14ers. Graze Peak, Tories. I want to try Longs this summer. Obviously the Collegiate Peaks, my hometown territory. This shoe is gonna be perfect for the mountain. The 14ers running up the 14ers. Okay so that was the that's my first run in the Solomon since this is wrong. The Solomon S G S S's Solomon. Could you reduce the S's? The Solomon S lab in there. Solomon. Why so many S's? So my first run in the Solomon S lab since 6 S G shoe was a success. It's very aggressive. It makes your calves and your legs tired but it's fast. It's fast. It's a narrow fit. Keep that in mind. If you have a wide foot it's definitely more of a narrow fit but I love that. It's good for my foot and if it almost feels, I know this is crazy and scary to say, but it almost feels like a cross-country spike. Not quite. I'm exaggerating a little bit but I'm not even kidding. Like if you were running crazy cross-country courses this wouldn't be a bad shoe to throw on your foot. So again I did 15 miles in it today. 4,500 feet of vertical. It felt good but I don't know how comfortable I would be in this shoe past 25 miles. See beauty. Work hard and love each other. See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow.
