I find these types of PRs pretty much pure hype when they are expecting to start delivering end of 2026. I get sick and tired of these pre orders for things that will likely never show up as if this company has done some amazing engineering and brought it to market.

The Intel ones are quite a bit easier, but still not as easy as a PC. You need to disable some FW security settings to allow for a non Apple kernel to boot.

I was eating wheat thins and Oreos on the trail, broth and ramen noodles in aid stations. I was not a fast finisher, came in 31st in 30.5hr.

The biggest small thing is skin care. On a short race you can manage a little chaffing or a hot spot, for longer races taking the 3min to Vaseline or clean whatever is rubbing before it turns bloody is worth it

I actually didn't sleep too well because my legs aches and I had an early flight home, maybe 7hr, don't remember any dreams.

The winner finished in 19 ish hrs, I was at 30.5. The first 40 mi were easy to keep a pace for around 24hr, but then as the legs got tighter, the weather cooler and wetter I couldn't keep the pace up and had to walk the up hills.

Thank you! I had a timer to eat something every 45 min, no sleep which was tough towards the end. It's very different from a marathon, you're going slower and it's a lot more about keeping consistent with eating and caring for small things early. This was late in the season so cold and wet!

 

Fifth time is the charm for me, but finally got a buckle at Devil Dog this weekend. Feeling pretty sore and limping around today, but overall very pleased that I managed to avoid another DNF!

Almost the same, but the RAV4 Prime plug-in hybrid. 50mi electric range, AWD, we almost never have to fill it and there's free slow chargers in our town!

Pretty niche, but a citrus squeezer. I cook a lot of Asian food and it's much better to put half a lime in the squeezer at a time than try and hand squeeze the juice out.

Supernote is the alternative I went with. They have a pretty responsive dev team and the cloud integration is optional, you can push stuff over the local WiFi network.

I returned my Remarkable 2 after a couple of days for a Supernote. Can do local network file transfer, and wifi screen sharing.

It weighs about 150lbs, I don't go max speed on windy days, but it's a nice ride
