All the "weight loss" is water loss... And most people tend to eat a lot after marathon hehe. Many people eating macs.

Actually I tried before 6 n 430 and good about earlier is not much vehicle and more peaceful.

6 am, people start preparing to come out to work liao and buses start operating.

After SCSM, I ate mee siam and fried carrot cake for breakfast.

Most runners I know don't really watch what they eat.

 

[Ender]

Even SRY says SCSM is the toughest marathon when he compares to others he raced overseas. So please respect the distance, heat, humidity and the sheares bridge. Respect, I mean prepare to train for it and know when to quit.

Forgot her name but she heng, WCH and the part of unsheltered Keppel Rd cleared, 40km mark at Customs House opp PSA Tg Pagar Complex you could really start to see the sun's shadow on the ground already. Still relatively cloudy when on WCH
Then at the padang after finish, sun full blast

Polar H10, I like that it supports ANT+ as some older treadmill don't have Bluetooth haha. Supports dual Bluetooth connection too so can pair to your watch/phone as well.

Thanks for the intro

Watches do not have heart rate monitoring and if have the accuracy is acceptable?

I am currently looking at options or you can recommend some as well.

 

[Jeremy1]

Would like to ask how to access this ? Just did my HM this morning and keen to download the cert. TIA

Click search on left and Enter your name or bib no and then your result will come out. You need to rotate your phone tio landscape and then click view certificate to download it.

Your watch hr monitoring is good enough but for more accuracy, chest heart rate monitor is the better choice especially if you really want to monitor your hr accuracy.

Might consider the chest one, want to see how is my heart rate and link to the treadmill to find out at which speed to be at for my current stage to hit zone 2 and 3

Thanks for sharing

Those interested in such things but worried about the weather can go gun this.

1.5km apart, ice and sponges.

last week keep rain cannot run

Last week I saw a guy carry umbrella while running

Really dedication

 

[WussRedXLi]

Actually to me not much of a difference

Yeah you also heng no WCH......HM not as much issue, unless for those 4hr HM timing and last few Pens 1hr later means will kena post 8am sun but still rather limited / partially shaded exposure.

FM last few pens and also aka slower runners of > 5hrs really would be exposed.

Actually I was doubtful the dead was partially caused by the WCH as he/she finished the FM at 0715 hour from what I read in FB which was still very early and the sun still not really up yet
