Montrail Stratos XCR - Mens
|
The Montrail Stratos XCR shoe seamlessly blends the protection of a hiking boot with the ultralight technology and comfort of a trail runner. If you liked Montrails Excelerace, you’ll love the Stratos. The Stratos is easier to put on, offers more ankle support and is more durable. What more could you ask for? Well for starters, the Gore-Tex EXO upper material gives you the ultimate in waterproof protection. One of the reasons for the incredible fit of the Stratos is the inner bootie construction that creates a smooth contact surface in front of the ankle. No more pinching, bunching or painful break-in periods. The full-length IntegraRide II protection plate provides lightweight, secure footing, which in turn gives you peace of mind and room to run.

Training Tips
Low weight, high rep circuit training combines the best of both worlds: aerobic and anaerobic training. Keeping the rest time in between high repeats low excercises like bench press, leg presses, inclined sit-ups, and upright rows is the key to maximum benefits.
As a long distance runner, a gradual increase in distance each week will allow you to build a solid areobic base. Distance increase should be no more than 10% of the previous week's distance.
When buying a new pair of running shoes, bring your old ones with you. You will get a better fit if you know if you supinate or pronate.
Heart monitors are useful for knowing when you are in the right zone for your training efforts. If you understand what your maximum heart rate is, you can set up your monitor to beep at you when you exceed the high or low range of your heart rate for the type of workout you are doing.
