BTW if you are ever going some Eurpoean countries for marathon tourism, be careful of pickpockets. It's probably more prevalent than even VN or something.

My FIL kena before on his trip....issue is for the tourist places of interests and subway around those places (mindful of those who enter at last minute ). And my in-laws are indon, and so he's considered to be pretty careful / observant compared to say us SGreans (even take ferry they always have an eye on their luggages on the rack, scared others take etc)....issue is also that we stick out as sore thumbs over there. Cant even blend in even if we dressed locally coz of our race.
Best also to keep passport well away from wallets / phones (iphones esp) and stuff. V v headache if lost. And im not sure what limitations that a pic of the passport has in whatever countries.

Yes, I always leave passport, IC and most of my credit cards in hotel safe.

Only carry one credit card with lowest credit limit and less than $100 worth in cash in my wallet. Handphone always carry in pocket as much as possible.

Think pic of a passport is more than sufficient in most cases.

wah lao, sg retail is even more ex than in China. Buy from Asics official TB store is only RMB1390 (S$260), if import from JPN, RMB959 (S$180).

Well on the bright side at least now can physically go to Asics stores to try on sizing and then look for cheaper alternative ways to get the shoe online.

if one can get from official TB store, it will mean one go to Asics physical store to try the sizing and do the same as you suggest.

My Rebel V4 almost 800km milege le, just nice to hoot this to replace.
Total damage $17,000 Yen after tax rebate.

Good shoes, use it for my tempo runs, can run sub-20 min 5km without much issues

Surprise surprise..........the previously JP only release S4+ YOGIRI got brought in by Asics Singapore but at an obscenely marked up price.

Official JP retail price is JP¥ 22,000 but probably can find for 20k in shops, which translate to around SGD$180. Somehow after making the way to our shores can become $320.......sigh.........really sucks to be a runner in SG.

Can just get magic speed 4, though it's definitely not going to be as comfortable for longer runs >HM - M though. Or just top up and get metaspeed

Interesting drills

Neuro + fast twitch damn power.

Not sped up

Bulletproofed AT and PF.

Creatine and Beta Alanine high chance can help also.

From what i (brielly) experienced, is a good exercise. Runners esp should really do this.

Cycling really must wear helmet one, even for PCNs. Unless you cycle really slow and below 15kmh.
