He said the 9U is unstable according some people. But he himself find it alright.
I have stopped looking at 9U ever since I got the 361 LF SL. AL the bounce of the ecapulated foam, don't really like it from my 6e first experience. But see how in the future as I put more mileage into the 6e, hopefully can get use to the bounce.

I feel the 6e is a pure race shoe. At least I am treating it as such

I should have stopped and do a good solid stretching and pop some salt sticks, my mind wasn't thinking properly lol

Is pretty normal. After cramp, thoughts usually go to, let's just walk and finish it rather than oh stretch it out then run. Case in point, an ang moh cramp same point as me last year. He stretched while I was walking. Later on 37 or 38 km mark he tap me and run past, I guess stretching removed all the pain somewhat.

This amdk, possibly pop 4 tabs of ibuprofen.

See you guys talking about Miro SL. Damn tempted.

Might already want to retire the Dowin Hurricane Max. Too high stack and give me underfoot ache even when walking.

Should have done more research instead of anyhow whack.

yah shag cannot think, still coping with myself thinking sian, train for so long, stuck at cramped legs.

I should have asked for salt sticks and do stretching. Prob that will allow me to run a few more kms more properly. This guy here was the 3hrs pacer, he later got to give up the pacing when he got cramps as well and got to walk/jog, stilll very fast, I think he ended with 3:15.

at around 60sgd a pop... relatively low risk. brings back shitty regrets of NB5

That time 2023 AHM ITBS i already popped like 3 tabs of arcoxia, ie 3 days. Cant rem if it was 90 or 120mg.
If not mon/tue i confirm MC. No way i could even walk much.
Even then, was limping in office and needed my hands to support while i sit down and dont let my right knee bend too much.

Not say the inflammation is bad or what, i know it's needed to kickstart recovery and in theory NSAIDs are not "helpful", but issue is the acuteness so bad that i cannot bend knee much hence i cannot go office. Things are not black and white sometimes, gotta look from broader POV.

Interesting, got such products.
Gonna get some and place/secure in my cycling shoe, see if it helps. My shoes cheap, so no CF.
Got 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2mm thickness, see what stiffness you wanna play with.
Good thing is that cycling shoes no midsole one, much simpler mode of operation/concept than running shoes.

The top shoes, lagi more expensive than say Adidas Pro Evo 3. Crazy one, they treat such things maciam like luxury bags like that, and there are more than sufficient cyclists willing to dish out good $$$ for such products.

Tasuke, a 41-year-old with an average "dad bod" weighing 74kg, embarked on an grueling fitness regimen in 2023 inspired by a popular anime. The routine demanded he complete 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and a 10km run every single day without exception. Over the course of three years, he maintained this relentless consistency, accumulating more than 109,000 repetitions of each exercise and covering over 16,000 kilometers on foot. Despite facing injuries, illness, lost toenails, and even traffic accidents along the way, Tasuke successfully transformed his physique, evolving from an ordinary middle-aged man into a lean, muscular athlete with visible abs.

KNN Workout sessopm spoiled by the rain again.....tot could squeeze in before the Sumatra squall but then there was a small patch that suddenly developed and hit my place at 7.30 right after warming up.
By the time it stopped the squall very quickly approached on the radar and skies quickly darkened, cannot do anything.
These squalls really can move fast sometimes, 0700h it still has not reached Kukup.

Just winged some anaerobic/aerobic sua..... think got improvement vs my 1km some years ago. (2:56 and it was slightly shorter)

 

[WussRedXLi]

Crazy amazing that bro could surge 2:40 pace for the last 2.2km (translated 2.4 timing = 6m 24s).

I think maybe I only can sustain that for like 800m, nope....probably even less.

Geez his progress fast sia, even after beginner gains still cheonged.

3 years, for me i think i only cut my 5k timing by 1 min++.



Pull ups, dips, push ups all also, after the beginner gains really slow down heckloads and even hentak kaki sometimes.

But recently like 3 months ago i changed my sessions all from nighttime (i rarely do morning sessions other than weekends) to morning. I think that is a major key...... the sleep recovery aspect.
Really felt it removed quite a lot of sticking points in all areas from cycling to running (aerobic) to strength/power (dips, pull ups, bulgarian split squats mainly which i track very closely)



ps. One more thing, if sleep quality/length not good, best not to do daily regimen. Actually recovery running is largely debated as well (i personally subscribe to just totally rest and do nothing, recovery day lactate clearance and flush is a total myth also).


I personally feel that cyclists and runners need to aim for this kind of physique ultimately, even if it takes 10 -20 years taking you well into middle age then so be it. If possible, train to add in a good dose of speed (neuromuscular).
