I went and bought a pair of new trail runners today.
Salomon speedcross 3, has the mud/snow contact outsole
Super grippy in wet.
Going again on saturday, going to try to break 40min by end of summer.

Do you guys think training with a weight vest will help increase my time? Or is that more just strength training?
TBH I've had some friends go up with weights, never really seen them gain as much time as I do with just going up as many times as possible. Based on my limited empirical evidence lol, I've never seen "pros" to use any weights either going up. Most of them are avid/pro cyclists though so take that FWIW. That doesn't mean weights won't help. When I started biking more last year that's when I noticed my times dropping faster.
