Don’t Mess with a Junkie

If you haven’t read the Inc. Magazine story on Newton, check out page four where the writer mentions The Gear Junkie, Stephen Regenold. The Inc. writer, Robert Andrew Powell, questions the effectiveness of Newton technology referencing the Gear Junkie’s slow Twin Cities marathon time.

Well, the Gear Junkie took issue with Mr. Powell’s reference in a ‘rant’ he posted on Active.com.

“Powell is right that I ran a slow marathon in the Newtons last fall. But he did not phone to ask why. Indeed, the weekend of the marathon I was attempting an endurance feat of sorts, as I raced in (and won) a 12-hour adventure race on Saturday, got a couple hours of sleep, then arose early to run the marathon on Sunday.”
