It began as a short-lived partnership between Strava and Chipotle. Now it’s quickly becoming a global phenomenon. For 2 years, Chipotle offered a lifetime supply of burritos for Strava runners in 25 North American cities. All they had to do was run a short Strava segment in their city more times than anyone else (during the month of January). But after complaints that many participants were resorting to questionable tactics, Chipotle has likely ended its commitment to the event, according to Canadian Running Magazine. Yet the thrill of running for free burritos could not be stopped. Two ultrarunners — Connor Dyer…

The U.S. Department of the Interior is preparing to issue a new directive that would make hunting and fishing the default use across most Interior-managed public lands unless specific closures are justified. The policy represents a procedural shift in how access decisions are made, placing the burden on land managers to explain why an area should be closed rather than requiring hunters and anglers to seek permission. The directive, issued as Secretarial Order 3447, would apply broadly across lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Bureau of Reclamation. Some units within…

The second-best kind of day at a ski resort thankfully comes around pretty often in Colorado, where an overnight storm yields a powder morning. On days like these, by 11 a.m., the goods have been gotten. Yet, with the right ski and boot setup, the mountain transforms into a freeride playground, complete with ephemeral side hits, techy steeps, and gloriously lush pistes.  It was one of those days. The clouds were clearing, and the vibes were high. I snapped Armada’s first-ever boot, the new AR ONE, into my bindings and leaned some pressure into the tongues. My skiing came alive. Suddenly,…

By Will Dabbs, MD Posted in #Guns #History The state of the art in modern special operations, frankly, is remarkable. In 2011, a group of elite Navy SEALs inserted via stealth helicopters deep inside hostile territory to kill the most wanted terrorist on Planet Earth. They successfully accomplished this daring mission for the loss of a single aircraft. Friendly forces exfilled unharmed, and the world stood amazed. However, that didn’t just happen. Operation Neptune Spear, the mission to kill Osama bin Laden, was the end result of decades of tactical evolution. The Son Tay Raid in Vietnam,…

Forget inside or outside, sometimes it’s time to think about the box itself. DECKED, a company built around making pickup trucks more organized and useful, has just redesigned its Tool Box. The company says it’s stronger and more durable, with a better lid, more security, and other upgrades. But it’s missing one of the features that helped make the original so interesting. We’ve covered DECKED’s drawer systems before, which the company is most known for. It adds a raised flat floor to your pickup’s bed, using the newly created space for drawers that slide out. It’s covered and secured storage…
