Wow......really gotta go overseas if super absolute timing oriented. The zhar boh easily +30 seconds if run in SG kind of weather (TW summer time 30+ deg) vs Japan. And that's just for 5k.

I had never used Taobao own courier (cainiao?) for sea shipment before. Usually if I need sea, I will use EZbuy's EZship. Base on past experience for my QD FY PB3 and 4, around 3 weeks or less can collect from the designated collection point.

40km per week (3 10km+2 5km)

Been doing it for a month and not improving at all. 10km 55mins

Do you think if I continue to do it, I will improve? Not going for any event just running for leisure


Heard this is called maintenance run and I will not improve without changing program?

Progressive overloading. See what you want to improve first (pace, distance, frequency, strength of various muscle, explosive power) or several at once with gradual increment. Even training plan I used are progressive overloading by nature.

40km is my limit (both time+fitness)

Actually I do not want to improve anything. Just wondering how come run a month still zero improvement. I was running 5km previously.

Ben Khoo said average marathon timing around +15 mins when running in SG


Yea that's actually like one of the reasons I starting to run in overseas races instead of always joining the local races (maybe SCSM being an exception since there's FM). The weather and vibes are just truly different compared to SG.

But it's no surprise to get an faster timing running overseas as compared to here as our body is already adapted to the heat probably.

I also used to hover 54 to 56 mins for my 10km.

After I changed my diet which lead to lose weight plus changing a better running shoes. I could do 52 mins 10km with the same effort done when I did my previous 10km run .. Last time to run 52 mins 10km. My HR won't go below 156. Now I could do it below 150.

After changing from my old NB fresh foam beacon to Saucony endorphin speed. I also running faster.

Now I know what kind of shoe for me to run faster .

Bouncy , good responsive shoe plus the shoe weight must be less than 240g.
