Shoe Review: Saucony PowerGrid Triumph 9
RunnerDude's Blog &bull Feb 4, 2012
RunnerDude has found a new favorite running shoe. Oh wait, no it's an old shoe. No, it's new. Confused? Don't be. Saucony recently revamped some of their popular shoes (the PowerGrid Triumph, PowerGrid Hurricane, and the ProGrid 5). How did they revamp them? They decreased the heel-to-toe offset. Before the revamping, the heel was 23mm high and lowered to an 11mm lift under the forefoot which resulted in a 12mm heel-to-toe offset. The revised versions starts with… Full Story »

Anaylze It! The Answer May Be Just a Spreadsheet Away!
RunnerDude's Blog &bull Jan 29, 2012
I love t he Yogi Berra quote, "You can observe a lot just by watching." Although humorous, there's a lot of truth to Yogi's statement. Problem with running is that it's hard to watch yourself. Which reminds me of something Thoreau said, "It is as hard to see one's self as to look backward without turning around." You can learn from watching others, but it's pretty dang hard to watch yourself without tripping and causing bodily… Full Story »
