Maybe he weigh before and after run.

Yes. Weight in before and after run.

and it’s normal for me to lose alot of water mass when the run is hard.

3kg? Possible? Garmin stat say one?

3kg possible for longer distance / intensity that uses more of glyogen (and less of fats oxidation)
It is also due to glycogen depletion as well. Coz 1kg of glycogen used = approx 3kg of water released.



Glycogen is Stored with Water
When glycogen is stored in muscle tissue, water is stored with it. Roughly in a ratio of 3:1; meaning for every 1g of glycogen, 3g of water is also stored.

When glycogen is broken down, the water it's stored with is released. This water can be used by the body for various functions, including hydration. In some cases, it may be excreted in urine, according to research published in the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Elaboration:

• Glycogen Storage:
  Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles, and it's stored in a hydrated form. For every gram of glycogen stored, approximately 3 grams of water are also stored.
  
  
• Glycogen Breakdown:
  When the body needs energy, glycogen is broken down into glucose, which is used as fuel. This breakdown also releases the water that was stored with the glycogen.
  
  
• Water Use and Excretion:
  The released water can be used by the body to maintain hydration, or it may be excreted through urine.

Ya crazy yesterday. 5.30pm start 10k run. Not sunny but very humid.

Sweat buckets until shorts also wet. Usually won't.

Shocker when I got home. My S23 phone with IP68 rating.. the screen turned fluorescent pink, blue, yellow colour. WTF!

Did some inspection and found water droplets got into the pen slot and also bottom screen sealed area. Must be the sweat...

Knock knock out many water drops still no go.

Then I used a hot air gun to blow dry for 10 minutes. Heng this time the screen turned back to normal.

Can boot in again even though will still turn fluorescent a couple times.

Today seem more stable. Hope it continues.

5.30pm hoot 10k. IIRC yesterday not like the day before (rainy)
Though yeah, it was cloudy. But heat index not low also.

I salute you lah bro.

I nearly bought that, the teal/black version so nice, but yeah it would have been my most ex pair of running shoes. Ended up settling for a pair of gt-2000-12s at 129 after discount. It's been serving me well!

 

[WussRedXLi]

Heat training @ 32 deg C (not sure how humid tho so dont know heat index)

Been using Nike for years. Now I discovered china shoes and it seems much value for money. Cannot wait till 618 to get my first pair of china shoes


Anyway recently went china to try buy xtep 5.0pro in chaozhou shop. They only have till 2.0 as they say no one buy 5.0 there. Told me to buy in their shop as taobao one is fake which I think is bs

Why wait for 618? It's happening now.
On tao bao，they do have fake one, so buy from flagship stores (旗舰店)for peace of mind.
