Raid is the official equipment partner of the Singletrack podcast, and if you haven't had a chance to test out their new vest, the LF5L, what are you waiting for? I have had mine for a few weeks now. I've gotten to take it out on a multi-hour outing just last week to test some of the features. One of the takeaways for me is the generous and creative carrying capacity on this piece of equipment. I was able to fit two 600-milliliter flasks up front, two more 500-milliliter flasks in the rear hydration carry slots, and then another 500-milliliter flask in the rear pass-through pocket. You couple this with the security of the pack and Raid's signature lack of bounce, it makes carrying that much hydration relatively effortless. Go check it all out, raidresearch.com. That's R-A-I-D-E research.com. Also, thanks to Norda, makers of my favorite trail running shoes. I have been putting testing mileage on their latest model, the 055, over the past month. This is a fantastic mountain ultra-racing shoe. It's already been proven out by athletes like Rachel Entrickin and Jimmy Elam. I think when it drops later this summer, you will see it on a lot of start lines. Don't miss the updates for when it launches.
