Get the wide version, unless if you know that your feet is skinny type (eg like me). Anyway i posted the link is wide ver for 1 link and normal for the other. Black ver is ubiquitous, not for those aiming for flashy stuff (eg me) but good for normal pax. I am wearing it now, it's 100% ok and actually recommended not to go wide if you know you are skinny.

But my wife has the normal and not wide DN2 and must loosen the laces all the way before she can fit it in. End up dont wear often.

My 2 parents no issue with their normal non-wide DN2. 25k steps daily also no issue no blisters.
i have no idea if my feet is skinny or not hahaha

ASICS Novablast 3 is pretty big toebox. I wear it and it's roomy. Novablast 4 also.
If you just nicely fit that, then you leg is not skinny.
i like the roomy toebox fit for my novablast 3. i guess i will get the wide version then?

Amazon got got offer for Puma DN2. Can take a look. Pretty decent trainier and also can run for not so serious races, parkruns.

Issue is need to go shop to confirm sizes. Coz the US sizes a bit off vs other brands, ie you wear EU44 for ASICS, it's actually a EU43 for Puma. But ASICS US10 is Puma US10. Their conversion is a bit wierd one.

This is wide version, so no issue. The normal version some people might have isssue if got wide feet.

It's a very good shoe, superb wet grip......actually not only superb but it's the best out there already, nothnig is better than Pumagrip (the Elite line uses a slightly different rubber outsole compound that is harder, i dont feel the elite's Puma grip same wet grip)

The upper material is not those racing shoe mesh type, will absorb a bit of water, so super sweaters might not like this. But some folks do not like those plasticky synth mesh stuff also coz not as comfy, so it works both ways, see what you want.

Yeah, if for training and have your correct size can hoot, it's a good shoe, can do racewalking even.
I actually got a pair of Puma Nitro Elite first version for just $6 but only small sizes avail, so avail for my kid.....for his 2.4 stuff etc. Bo bian, price is good, just hoot. Wont get injured one lah.......not super long distances / high mileage.

For those who are more into vanity aspect (ie me), need to have the preferred colour + correct sizes. I got my preferred ones from Zalora anywhere from 96 - 120 plus thereabouts. Ender shared the lobang before, can be gotten from 80+ dollars but limited colour/sizes.

Esp these , difficult to get.

Tomorrow if can get into that window after the rain but then it dries up a good deal, it might be even cooler by 2-3 deg C now (heat index).

So need to aim for it. Look at the weather radar.

Tmr if good weather can also consider running MBS in the evening and see events there
CR2



MBS on weekend too crowded, not a good running experience 🤣
Can run super long distance liao :s21:

That reminds me of army waterbag. I prefer those handheld mini running water bottle. If you exert force on it with your hands, it will just depress inwards. It's very comfortable to run with.
Seems to have improvement, think can confirm it.
Nice weather, just splash a bit of iced water a few times ok already....still steaming at the end but still manageable.

Yeah good weather, was running half of my run in the drizzle. The floor wasn't wet and I get to enjoy the cooling temperature.

Ran 15km in 4.35 min/km pace

Yes, only good for slow runs like above 6.00 pace.
But good for plodding around the area during NDP, pass the time. 2-in-1.
