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 Like The On Running Explorer Short

We absolutely love the On Running Explorer Short for its exceptional performance on the trails. These shorts are designed with the hiker in mind, offering a range of features that enhance both comfort and functionality. One standout feature is the impressive water-repellent coating, ensuring that even if the weather takes a turn for the worse, we stay dry and comfortable. No need to worry about sudden rain showers or damp conditions, as these shorts have you covered.

In addition to the water-repellent coating, the Explorer Short is made from partially-recycled polyester fabric. This not only makes them an eco-friendly choice, but it also ensures excellent moisture-wicking capabilities. Say goodbye to uncomfortable sweat and hello to quick-drying comfort, as these shorts efficiently wick away moisture, keeping you cool and dry throughout your hike.

One of the standout features of the Explorer Short is the inclusion of spacious cargo pockets. These pockets are strategically placed to allow you to securely store all your on-trail necessities. Whether it's your phone, keys, trail map, or tasty snacks for when hunger strikes, these pockets have ample space to keep everything within easy reach. No need to worry about losing or misplacing your belongings, as these pockets are designed to keep them safe and secure, leaving you free to fully enjoy your hike.
