Do u all listen to music while running? Which earbud u using?

Yes. Using speaker on the phone. Cheap and easy.

Running in high humidity is deeply uncomfortable lol

Your 6 or 8 out of 10 effort run?

I usually run 8am or 5-6pm.

So I can feel you.

OMG! How did you run so fast! It took me an hour ++ to hit 10km!

actually my Z1 and Z2 abit blur, been 2 years since i last lab tested, but yes shd be Z1 bah, bordering on Z2? Z2 last i measured was 120-163bpm, then anything below 120 is Z1?

how come your Z2 is such a huge range from 120-163bpm? i thought the band should be smaller.
based on my LTHR, my Z2 is 140 to 154bpm

Your coming Garmin run confirm can go below 2 hr liao. This type of 10km time is can go under 1:50 easily with consistent training. You are progressing well

If after try out can keep the shoes, then I am interested to go. .. Else make me gian if I like the feel, but the RRP at $249 and $349 is something I am not willing to part.

i did run 21km a few times but it was very exhausting.
i had to stop and walk a few times. i think my endurance is at borderline for a sub2 as of now.
not sure if i can handle the pain. i wek.

Your pace for 10km is already there to meet the sub 2 hr or even 1:50 for HM. It's your endurance that needs more training. That's where time commitment comes in. Need those 1.5hr to 2 ++ hr long run once a week. preferably borderline zone 2/3 and occasionally put in more than 30min race pace or faster into one of these long run. Your TAO will schedule the race pace long run, call "Pickup run".
You Easy run (economy run) I guess by now should be > 10km?

i guess TAO is still not that smart enough to know what's best for me.

my economy run is still at 7min. i only have 1 pickup run and the pace is at 6:42min which is a far cry from the 5:40min target pace. my easy run (2x per week) ranges from 6-8km but that's also because i'm have set a time limit of 1 hour.

i will continue to do my 2++ hour run on weekends and add in my own pick-up pace as you suggest. thanks shifu!

Actually TAO schedule my pickup run like every 3 or 4 weeks once. The others are just normal steady state long runs. I actually find pickup run very siong for my current fitness. If done every week sure die. Once a month is ok for me.
My 10km not as fast you. But TAO has somehow set my economy run from 5:45 to 5:55. I really dread the day if it is 5:45. I know it is not easy pace, because at this pace, my HR is in a climbing trend right till the end. If it's not steady state, it is not an easy run. I don't know why suddenly it increase my economy pace to this zone 3 pace. I suspect the algorithm is trying to train me at race pace, and ignoring my current fitness.

went jogging yesterday
saw a XMM running in sports bra, and a thought came to me immediately

PAP should encourage all girls to wear sports bra, this will motivate alot more guys to go exercise

and in turn will lead to a healthier nation!
