Puma outlets sometimes will slash prices aggressively for outgoing colourways very quickly, can also try look for it in JB running shoe stores also

I think rn the Velocity Nitro 3 is under 100 for a number of colorways, not bad

Got it! Thanks mate!

Got one time I saw the MagMax slash to 150+, I wanted to buy but then I see the current mileage of my current MagMax and held back

Thinking of choosing magmax over superblast 2 for my long runs. How is the magmax doing for you?

Bought mine in January 2025 (when Puma SG finally brought it in after my persistent questioning), clocked about 200km (about 1/3 life gone).

I use it mostly on long runs and recovery runs (5:30/km to 7:30/km pace). Surprisingly responsive and very stable despite the height. Weight is not something I really noticed, even against the very light Deviate Nitro Elite 3. My legs don't feel like utter trash after doing long runs (15k and above). Less narrow compared to other Puma shoes.

But best to try and see the initial feeling yourself in the store. Shoe very subjective sometimes need a leap of faith (which fails on me sometimes like the Kiprun KD900x)

Can de, just start with say 1km first for 7 days, then slowly up mileage add 5% after every Sunday. If you are not in any hurry, 3% also can. Dont stop can already, just ease into this new routine and be very disciplined in mindset, once you have trained the mindset and routine, you will automatically get out of the door to do and even not feel good if you have missed a day. (you might also take a rest day every week next time with higher mileages)

One more good (and fun) exercise to adopt which i believe is quite beneficial in injury prevention of the few tendons/fascia and improving running, is rope skipping.

Later then visit thread for more advanced topics, like strength, cross training, plyometrics, diet, supplements, recovery methods etc.

Those Asics kayano at shoppee for $50 is it fake one ?

I see. I will probably drop by iRun to compare between both shoes. iRun selling magmax for around 150. Superblast 2 is like 300 at double the pricing. I have 500dollars HomeNS credits so I am basically getting the shoe for free.

Ran my 21.1km just 4 days ago and I thought I have already rest well and ended up I feel very tired after 5km today. Sometime I can feel very good before run and when start to run. I struggle immediately. If I force myself. I feel I could still go for 10km.

Shopee sometimes got fake Asics need to be careful

If in doubt, check the bigger name stores or Asics Web itself

What is DSW.

Normally I feel ok to run the next day even doing a half marathon.

I did ever run half. Next day run 11km and rest 1 day and ran 21km. [url=https://ibb.co/204FpwXy] [/URL]

Closing the work week with a 10K on a windless and dry night.

Right big toe nail has turned purple, which means:
- it gotten injured back at 2XU
- nail is gonna take 2 to 3 months to die and fall off, which is gonna disrupt my training eventually. Sucks big time...

It doesn't hurt that much anymore, but I'm sure of its eventual outcome.
