    Mad Rock Issue on New Rope

    Your madrock is a safety, your other hand is meant to act as a brake to make the descent smooth. https://saddlehunter.com/community/index.php?threads/madrock-safeguard-makes-me-uneasy.49917/

    Weekend plans changed, active days with the kids but not a ton of running. 6 on the treadmill this evening brought me up to 31.5 for the week, feeling better just need to keep up the momentum. Of course I head to Alaska for 10 days on Friday so my running may fall off a bit then but hoping to...

    I'm back on the wagon, 25 so far this week, half on treadmill. did a 7 mile progression run (+1 mi cool down) today, felt pretty good, wanted to go longer but ran out of time before kid pickup. Back on the treadmill this weekend, likely a shorter run tomorrow and longer one Sunday.

    Rest day yesterday, 9 today. Did a tempoish 4*6 min repeat workout with the club and jogged to/from. Ran with a slower buddy because I just wanted to do some miles so not sure I can call it a true tempo workout, but the legs wound up tired regardless.

    Things you have bought that turned out to be not worth the cost or were a waste of money?

    The HC mini in my closet may be near top of the list for me.. it is a great little Xbow but stopped being fun for me about the 3rd or 4th shot. Held on to it to get my kids into hunting before they can draw back a compound so that opinion may change, but I don't see me hunting with it. I've...

    Same here but I'm hoping this is the first year I convince myself to actually take days off work to hunt to make up for it

    Still having trouble staying on the bandwagon lately but not completely giving up either. Treadmill 6 tonight, took yesterday off and went for a short AM walk then kayaked for a few hours while I turned 40, treadmill 4.5 on Tuesday. It's make it or break it time if I want to do a fall...

    True. Took the dog for a decent walk today as well, I should be better at "counting" things that aren't strictly running. Definitely was feeling the OG stairmaster by the end of the day.

    Got my 10 in on the treadmill last night. Today is "cross training", my basement flooded so I've got to deal with cleaning that up. Ugh I hate this house sometimes.

    Teach me to fish

    Yes. If you're fishing for panfish there's also baskets/net bags you can put them inside of instead of on a stringer too. Basically the same thing. You can also put them directly on ice, I just don't typically have an ice/cooler on my kayak

    Teach me to fish

    I like to keep most fish freshwater fish and some saltwater (bluegill, crappie, trout, bass, perch, catfish etc) alive on a stringer while I'm fishing, and then put them in a cooler on ice to transport home. Most larger saltwater fish (striped bass, salmon, halibut, speckled sea trout, bluefish...
