What’s the best running shoe? What kind of GPS watch should I get? Where can I find that heart rate monitor you wear? I field questions like this every day. I never answer. First, because I think it’s important that you do your own research, take personal responsibility for your decisions, experiment, and find what works best for you. But the main reason I don’t engage in this type of inquiry is because it doesn’t matter. It’s not important. It’s a distraction. A crutch.
