Patagonia R1 Flash Pullover - Men's
The Patagonia R1 Flash Pullover can serve as either a base layer or outer top, and is great when exerting yourself in cold temps—skiing, riding, mountain biking, rafting, you name it. You'll love the slightly stretchy R1 Flash for its superior moisture control as it pushes sweat away from your body to the fabric surface where it evaporates. Its natural water-resistance also protects on the outside. It insulates just as well as it wicks sweat, and is breathable so you don't overheat. Besides, you can always unzip the collar zip, offset to prevent chafing your chin, for maximum ventilation. Lightweight stretch panels strategically placed at the wrist and hem provide freedom of movement while reducing overall bulk. Though it's sized for next-to-skin use, it's roomy enough to fit over a light base layer.

Patagonia R1
Great piece of gear. Very flexible. Use with another base layer for extra warmth. Use alone in warmer times. Highly recommended!!
great!
This is a great piece to own, comfortable, lightwieght and warm. Yes a bit pricey, also, I was unable to find a tag that gave wash instructions. I emailed patagonia and they said : wash cold, line dry.
muy bueno!
An excellent piece of clothing. Warm, breathable, and comfortable. It has become an absolute "must have" for every backpacking trip. Great as a first layer. Deep zipper allows for venting in warmer conditions. A bit pricey but very much worth it. I'd highly recommend the R1.
Best Pullover
This has to be the best pullover ever. My favorite piece of gear for sitting around the campfire or using as a baselayer on a cold day. I'd highly recommend.

Training Tips
Anaeroic threshold is when lactic acid starts to build up in your body as your muscles are not getting the oxygen they require. This threshold is typically expressed as a percentage of your VO2 max - the amount of oxygen per kilogram of weight that a person can use in converting fuel to energy. Elite athletes threshold might be as high as 90% of VO2 max.
Efficient running position allows you to run farther and faster. Keep the heel raise to a minimum, relax your upper body and hands, keep your upper body poised and quiet.
If you want to make progess in your training, join a running group. A commitment to meet on a regular basis with a group of like minded individuals will help you keep your focus.
An efficient long distance running stride will have you landing on your heal first and rolling to the front of your toes.
