Best awards from a race

What’s the best awards you’ve gotten from a race? Particularly top placements or random awards (like exactly middle of the pack award). Which race and upload a photo if you can! Would be fun to see who’s got the cool bling!

Sprained my ankle 2-weeks out from my first 50km

1 Upvotes

I mildly sprained my ankle a few days ago, I was able to bear weight the next day but it’s still feeling pretty tight and weak ~4 days after. I have my first ultra coming up in 10 days, it’s a 50km technical trail with +/-2000m of elevation change. I’ve been training so hard all year, and I’m so devastated to maybe have to back out.

Is there any hope of being able to run? What indicators should i look for that I can maybe do the run? I was going to try jogging on flat this weekend and if that goes well trying a short trail next week with terrain similar to the course. I am not looking for a fast time, I just want to finish.

Gear Amazfit smartwatch review after a few months: Balance 3, Active 3 Premium, or T-Rex 3 Pro?

0 Upvotes

my priorities are workout tracking, sleep trends, comfort, and features that are genuinely useful in everyday life. Battery life and how easy it is to review activity data would also factor into my decision. i'd appreciate some longer-term feedback before choosing my next smartwatch. The Amazfit Balance 3, Active 3 Premium, and T-Rex 3 Pro are on my shortlist, and I'm trying to work out which one makes the most sense beyond the initial excitement of buying a new gadget. Which of these models would you recommend for someone who wants a reliable everyday fitness companion rather than a watch packed with features they may never use?
