　　It’s not that I don’t like food. I do. I carry frozen cheesecakes on winter expeditions. They’re caloric and they don’t freeze hard, so you can bite off chunks without chipping your teeth. I once ate the same dead catfish boiled over a fire for three days. Was it good? Absolutely not. I like cardamom, snap peas, and Asian pears....

　　Nothing says “winter holidays” to me like the combo of a cold day, a warm fire, a soft couch, and a book. If you’re looking for some couch material—or gift ideas for the endurance people in your life—here are the books I’ve enjoyed most this year that fit with the general themes of Sweat Science. 　　The Inner Clock, by Lynne...

　　You know what they say: Good shades aint cheap. I was a gas station sunglass wearer for most of my life until I actually had a nice pair of sunglasses. It was like looking through an open window after years of staring through dirty glass. Never will I go back. 　　That being said, theres a cost to clarity. Luckily for...

　　I know Im a little snooty when it comes to shotguns. But darned if the ATA Arms NEO X Max-7, a sub-$550 semi-auto shotgun, won me over and quickly.

The last time he went off the jump, I missed the shot with the GoPro HERO13’s new burst slo-mo feature. That was OK, though, because Brooks...

　　I used to have a recurring dream in which I’m sitting on my mat awaiting instructions from a panel of my yoga teachers. I’m at an Iyengar yoga assessment, for which I’m completely unprepared. And I am terrified. After what seems like an eternity, they tell me my task: I’m to carve a Thanksgiving turkey right there on my mat...

　　It’s 23 degrees and snowing hard. It’s the first good snow of the winter and there’s 6 inches of fresh powder on top of what was clear, rain-slicked pavement just a few days ago. The outlook for the next couple of months is a continuation of the same, with small warming breaks between storms. 　　That can make winter driving conditions...
