　　The Boston Marathon isn’t a record-chasing course. It’s tactical, uneven, and often at the mercy of New England spring weather. Here, the win matters more than the clock. So, while no one expected Kelvin Kiptum’s 2:00:35 world record or Ruth Chepngetich’s 2:09:56 mark to fall, few would’ve guessed that a lesser-known brand in pro road racing — Under Armour —...

　　Ammo prices keep climbing. Thankfully, a few manufacturers are still making reasonably priced rounds for everyday hunters chasing everyday game. The Harvest Collection is one of them. 　　Barnes and Sierra teamed up to create a new line of ammo aimed squarely at whitetail hunters called the Harvest Collection.

　　Most days, you’ll find Constanza Maas on the job site. As an environmental specialist, she spends much of her time drilling into the earth, testing air and water quality, and sampling soil to monitor contamination on Canadian construction sites. But Maass impact runs deeper than environmental compliance — she’s also reshaping what leadership looks like in the trades.  　　After facing...

　　More than 10% of the U.S. power supply is generated by wind. This natural resource may seem like an easy source of renewable energy. But harnessing the power of wind is another story. That’s where wind turbines come in. 　　Over 75,000 of these behemoths have been erected across the U.S. You’ve likely seen onshore windfarms driving down the highway. What...

　　Before they launched Rocket Ramps, Ted Jaramillo and Henry Lanman were just two kids who wanted to ride mountain bikes. When their skills surpassed the trails and infrastructure available to them, the Santa Fe locals decided to take matters into their own hands. 　　“You can’t have a solid mountain biking scene without the trails to support it,” Jaramillo says.  　　Rocket...

　　If you passed Andrew Comrie-Picard on the road in his home city of Los Angeles, you’d never guess his odometer frequently tips above 100 mph. “I drive really slow on normal roads,” says the rally racer turned stunt driver, “and I’m always the person to let someone else merge in.
