I ran my first ever 10k on NYE (55m on pretty rough terrain). Aerobic fitness is probably my priority at the moment - I'm climbing mont blanc in June so that's a pretty important goal for me and offering some motivation.

NYE trail 10k.. sick.
what was up with that mt everest photo? u climb everest??? lol. :wowthatwasnutswtf:
also for your trail races etc, i remember you using some vibram-ish shoes. if so, i'd try to find some good xc flats. can really fly in those on rough terrain - way more than in vibrams.

Haha I went to Nepal for around 2 months, a month for my final placement of med school, working in a Kathmandu government hospital which was pretty mad in itself, then I spent 3 weeks trekking in the everest region, did base camp and the three surrounding High passes - it was pretty nuts. Shamedly though, as I dragged myself over 5000m I was frequently overtaken by crazy people RUNNING as it was just before the everest ultra marathon so that was pretty cool to see, some ridiculous athletes running with like 50% oxygen haha.
I actually have some merrel trail gloves which are awesome for dryish trails, not so great in mud. Unfortunately that's at my parents where I spent Christmas where there is some great trail. Unfortunately I live in the concrete jungle of an inner city so most of my running is treadmill. Looking to pick up some zero to 4mm drops with a bit of cushion, not sure what to go for though!!

They look really good actually, can get them online at. Good price but I'll see if any of the local running shops have them in to try for size. Thanks!
