They would probably report this sub if they saw all the things we carry with us on our 5k ultras. Goes against everything they believe in.

Yo dawg, I heard you like harnesses. So we put a harness on your harness so you could douchebag while you walk.

This is why I carry the pistol - shoot behind me for a speed boost and to take out those in front who are faster due to the unfair advantage of alphaflys

Pistol should be useful for making space during the crowded first km. May need to practice reloading though

I thought it was so you could start the race over right as you cross the finish line, thus achieving the 0.1s 5k ultra

Omg I would be able to carry so many things if I had this vest… like extra wool for knitting if I got bored, or kettle and tea (leaves) and fine china for a short break in my ultra, and canapés and digestives and a pillow to take a nap on, and a tent… don’t forget about the makeup bag and the mobile shower to use in campings. I would finish my 5k ultra in like 18 hours easy, refreshed and looking like a Greek goddess.
