My stride for the entire marathon, and the reason I don't do road races. Exaggerated leaping is slightly more justifable if there are rocks and roots below your feet.
Zane Grey Highline 51 Miler, 2006, starting line.
Zane Grey Highline, the trail.
I nearly tripped over every single one of these rocks.

Triathletes look like WAY bigger dorks! And in my own defense, there was a bunch of leg-slashing cacti everywhere.
From my experience I would unfortunately have to save trail runners. But I'm not including myself in that bunch of fashion no-no's ;)
Triathletes have too much spandex, and not enough humility, in my opinion. (I used to tri in the old days, before multi-hundred dollar fees, $4000 bikes, and when triathletes seemed much friendlier). I guess that's why I'm an ultragoober, now.
Any male, and most females, who wear spandex should all be moved to a big island in the ocean. What dorks!
Even though I have seen folks at races or training and have to say, "What the hell were you thinking when you put THAT on", I would have to say that triathletes are WAY bigger posers.
Triathletes, of course! Didn't neon go out in the 80's? ; ) But I guess that means its time to come back again.....
TRIs!!!!
: )
TRI!!
tri-geeks for sure. and this is coming from a skull-cap wearing trail runner.
i can't vote...everytime i look at that picture of that guy and his helmet, i start laughing so hard that tears are streaming down my face...okay, i got it under control now...it's obvious that tri-dude is a true dork...and you look pretty cool in your gear.
Even though your numbers might be a little skewed due to your audience I will continue the trend and say the triathletes are way bigger dorks, but after what I wore up the mountain the other day I am not sure I should be talking.
