I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Why We Love the Altra Superior 6 Shoe

The Altra Superior 6 is designed for those who prefer a minimalist approach to trail running. It offers agile performance and a heightened sense of the terrain.

With a starting weight of just 9.5 ounces per shoe, the Superior 6 features a minimalist design that incorporates Altra's signature balanced cushioning, gender-specific fit, and Footshape toe boxes that allow for natural toe splay.

In its 2023 update, the Superior 6 introduces new ripstop uppers, which not only enhance durability but also improve breathability in the vamp area. Additionally, the Maxtrac outsoles have been tweaked to provide more durable tread and improved tactile traction.
