Technological marvel
Still skiing with an ancient beacon sporting a earphone? Time to quit being a backcountry safety liability and pony up the dough for a modern beacon. The M2 is a modern technological marvel. It features digital indication of distance with a highly sensitive search arrow to confirm direction of search. The Ortovox Alaskan shovel is first rate, metal construction but still lightweight. The 240cm probe is also indispensable, and should be backed up with avalanche probe poles.

Training Tips
One of the most mentally toughening things you can do as a runner who trains daily is to add a morning run into your routine. This means you are doing two runs a day. The morning run is simply more of a mental challenge then anything else.
Have two pairs of running shoes, especially if you live in a wet climate. Consider replacing your shoes no later than 500 miles into the life of the shoes.
Proper hydration for a run includes drinking 30 - 45 minutes before you start and about a cup every 10 - 15 minutes while running.
One of the best ways to win a running race is to win it in your mind first. Visualize yourself running and winning that important race. The more often you do this, you will start to "feel" the race. Your heart will get pumping and your body will feel the effort required to get the job done.
