Abigail ScottBy Abigail Scott
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.

Why We Like The XA Pro 3D V8 GTX Shoe

The Salomon XA Pro 3D V8 GTX Shoe is a versatile trainer that readies us for race day. It's a do-it-all performer that we wear everywhere from race day to rainy day hikes.

GORE-TEX gives it reliable waterproofing fit for muddy trails, and the minimally-cushioned EnergyCell midsole focuses on stability to keep you sure-footed, whether the trail is muddy or full of rocks.
