I’ve been playing with a new app lately, runBSX is an app that can track your runs via GPS and keep a log of those activities. Nothing exceptionally new with that, right? But there are some aspects of this app that are pretty cool and the potential for the future …
I love zero-drop shoes… In fact, that’s all I run in these days. I ran the Zion Half in Altra Intuition and was alternating between those and the Brooks PureDrift for all of my runs. But the Altras have lived their whole life span and are ready to be retired. I …
