Julie- I think I might have asked you about your Northern Lites snowshoes before? That looks like the "Elite" model that you have? (they now make the "Elite" in orange) I see they have an "Elite Racer" which is 20in long instead of 25in. I'm thinking of trying the Northern Lites snowshoes. I tried the Crescent Moon brand last year and didn't like them much and my Atlas are not made for running. Are you still happy with yours? Sounds like it!
Hi Elizabeth, I'm very happy with mine. I ordered from northernlites.com; a company in WI. I had a claw break off and had a problem with a buckle after 5 years. I mailed one back for repair..they only charged me FIVE bucks and promptly sent it back. I love 'em!
12 years ago in the haze of a hangover I read Oprah's Make The Connection. It changed my life. I lost the fat, I put down the booze, began eating in a healthy manner, began to walk, then run. Run On! I first began running marathons. Liked it so much I found some crazy ultra runners in MN who showed me the trail and ultramarathons. 39 marathons and 40+ ultra marathons later ( 15 100 mile ultramarathons in the past 5 years) I am sober, lean and happy. I am now inspiring others to run, as Oprah inspired me. Coaching beginning runners is a gift I like to give every day. It's not just about running..it's about all that comes with it: goal setting, empowerment, a belief in oneself, being true to oneself. 2007 brought 4 100 mile finishes, 2008 brought 4 100 mile finishes, a BQ and PR at TCM, a PR at the 100 mile trail distace at Javelina Jundred: 23:13. 2009 brought another PR at the 100 mile distance! Amazing. Lean Horse 100, a dream come true. What holds for 2010? WHO KNOWS?? NOT I!
