You take the fuelbelt on any run that's longer than 2 miles--WHO DOES A RUN LESS THAN 2 MILES unless you are a sprinter or mile runner? That's part of the point.
You wear more than 3 different pair of running shoes in a typical week-What if you do road runs, technical trail runs and speed work in the same week? You'd need 4+ pair of shoes for that?
Your post-race meal is a burger and a beer-DISAGREE...Run an ultra and this is what you are usually going to get! Who do you think 90% of ultra entrants are?
You have a Garmin-DISAGREE as many pretty fast people I know use these in training. But it's mostly slow slackers buying and using them.
You have ever read a Penguin column and agreed-DOES ANYONE REALLY READ THIS GUY? I think its bad enough you even know who he is! You clearly know, too.
