:lol:
Bowe and Sklyer has similar 40 times but Skyler was like a 10.2 100m / 6.3 60m.
I honeslty don't even know if "Over" Dwayne Bowe ran track in high school but would assume he did.

I think Carter's first year was the Deverys first year with the Saints

Well, I found a deal I couldn't pass up. $266 shipped so I'll test them out under different temps and report back. This is that time of year I start taking advantage of all the closeouts.
If I ever look like this goon though, somebody kick me in the shin.

i have absolutely seen a 30+ preboard situation more than once. They finally cracked down and said one parent could board per child.
I was seeing entire families of 8 hispanic or asian families board with one child.
Family boarding and pre-boarding are not the same on SW. Pre-barding boards before A1. Family boarding is after the A group but before B1.
Generally, on SW, those who pre-board are allowed one person to assist them but it has nothing to with a child

I guess it makes you happy to have 30+ preboards, because then they're not acting like gate lice, taking every aisle and window seat ahead of the A boarding group
30+ pre boarders is a gross exaggeration
Even if it was 60 you could still find a window or aisle seat
And no need to guess, it makes me happy because the boarding groups are lined near the gate not in the terminal walkway, it's easily and clearly understood, easy to follow and you don't have to walk through dozens of people when it's your time to board because they're standing in the way waiting for their time to board.
The boarding experience with a mid to late A boarding group on Southwest is superior to boarding first class domestic on Delta, American and United

What does that have to do with the boarding process mobs every other major domestic carrier creates?

their insane boarding process
The smoothest in the business and the only one that doesn't jack up the middle of the terminal with people standing around waiting in lines that they shouldn't even be in.
Southwest to begin charging for checked bags
Posted by LSUfan4444 on 3/11/25 at 8:29 am
Love the boardng process
No issue with open seating
This is a deal breaker when they already werent the cheaper domestic carrier on many routes I travel anyway

Today we announced updates to some of our policies and benefits within our fare bundles. Sharing them with you is important to us, as we’re working to offer you more choices to create travel experiences that fit your needs.
Updates to Checked Baggage Policy
We will offer two free checked bags to Rapid Rewards® A-List Preferred Members and Customers traveling on Business Select fares. We will also offer one free checked bag to A-List Members and other select Customers. In addition, Southwest will credit one checked bag for Rapid Rewards Credit Cardmembers. All remaining Customers will pay to check their first and second bags, and we will continue to charge for the third and fourth checked bags. Changes will apply to flights booked on or after May 28.
Updates to Our Fare Bundles
We're updating the benefits of our fares bundles in phases. Whether you’re looking for a lower price with fewer perks, or more benefits for added flexibility, you’ll have the choice to pick what works best for your trip.
Phase 1: Beginning this month, we increased our Rapid Rewards earn ratio on our Business Select fares and lowered the earn ratio on our Wanna Get Away® and Wanna Get Away Plus™ fares. We will also begin to vary our redemption rates across our fare products on some high- and low-demand travel periods.
Phase 2: Beginning May 28, we will introduce a new Basic fare. This new Basic fare will be our lowest price point and will have less flexibility than other fares. Additionally, we will be adding expiration dates to our Flight Credits, which will vary based on which fare you choose to purchase.
The chart below gives you a full picture of the revised fare products as of May 28, 2025, ranging from most flexible to value-first.

I wear my bottom base layer(Smartwool thermal 3/4) always
Thats exactly my quandary. I hardly ever wear my 3/4 wool thermals and would prefer to not wear them...I'm just curious how low people can normally go on piste with shells and no base layer.

I have a pair of the Flylow Baker insulated bib and after spending one day in Utah ;ast week where temps hit the 50s I am considering a pair of the shell bibs in case it's warm in Breck for my trip next month.
For those who have rocked their shell bib in the past, what's the coldest you can remember wearing them on without any baselayer underneath? I really don't want to add anything under for temps in the teens and up.

Saturday and Sunday were something else for sure. I had the vents fully open on my bibs for about 3 hours.
It's been much better the last couple of days and we're going to get dumped on here tonight and tomorrow.

re: Shin splints healing time?
Posted by LSUfan4444 on 3/3/25 at 8:37 am
As insinuated by someone else, they are a stress reaction on the body that can be caused (and conversely improved and prevented) by one or more of many factors.
Too much volume too quickly.
Too much intensity too quickly.
Poor form.
Poor shoes (lack of support, too much support, support in the wrong areas, etc).
Lack of strength, flexibility, mobility
Poor running surface
The first step I tell any anew athlete I work with when they are introduced is we immediately but back on volume but keep the intensity and we get their shoes (gait, etc) checked.
We also avoid running on concrete/cement at all costs. Grass and on the track is preferred. Asphalt is okay. Treadmills only when necessary and never EVER cement.
We will start a return to full activity by only running every other day for a week or two then when we get them back to running 5-6 days a week, we keep the volume the same as the previous two weeks but make each run shorter so if they were running 20 miles the first two weeks over 4 days a week, the third week will remain at 20 miles but over 6 days, not four to reintroduce consecutive days running.
During this time we advocate for daily stretching, strength training, icing and heat therapy to promote recovery.
If things persist after this approach for a month or two, we shut them down totally for a week or two, suggest consulting a PT or Ortho for imaging.

No real time frame but they should subside after a couple of weeks depending on much volume / intensity has been cut. The more you rest, the faster they will heal BUT will come back if you introduce too much intensity or volume again too quickly.
