Meet my orleng Rebel 3

My shoe non-carbon plate, but is a racing shoe. Good to use for tempo/progressive long runs.

My 6-8km timings should be faster if I transit to this.

do the laces adjustments make a huge diff? Have never experimented with lace adjustment before

I always do this since I am wide feet.

Anta China Brand got their own shop here in Singapore.

Xtep, I think it's available in Decathlon here. I saw Decathlon Online Singapore selling.

The rest of other brands can always get opinions from runners here which I think a lot already using.

Training plan for the 10km

Week 1: 6km pandan reservoir
Week 2: 2 loops around bedok reservoir (8.6km) > passing requirement
Week 3: 10.5km macritchie reservoir > A grade
Week 4: 2 x 6km pandan reservoir > A+ grade

Just need to do 2 loops around bedok reservoir then can call it quits.

@xllms is more knowledgeable with the various brands here. I only know Qiaodan and Bmai are value for money.
for me I get my updates from the Singapore QiaoDan runners on facebook. the admin there will periodically update new info from his weibo.

I read there are fakes Qiaodan. So best if to get from Tmall's Qiaodan Flagship store for peace of mind.

in china now plenty of fakes that look exactly the same, they probably just use different material to do the midsole.
cost of making a pair of shoes is really nothing once the molds are there.

If want to add on other brands like ANta, Li Ning or Xstep, with all the various modesl, I also blur. So I just stick to monitor Qiaodan models, which are the Performance shoes (Feiying PB 3/4, Plaids 1.5) , Trainers ( 强风 Series).
Flagship store,

I also keep in touch with Bmai for this model only, because, on sales, go to low rmb469.
