Not bad

 

[WussRedXLi]

for me sub 4min pace is definitely forefoot strike.
tried the spike at home (with the spikes removed of course). not much diff under foot to the racing flats that I am used to.

Oh then shd be fine if you already have flats experience and already forefoot striking even any wee bit......conditioning already there over the years even without much S&C.
Just slowly ramp up the distance on these new spikes shd be fine.

Issue is more of those really true distance/endurance runners esp for those favouring more towards heel striking (nothing wrong) and then changing to this kinda stuff.

ya.. going to ramp up distance slowly.. 800m repeats tomorrow.. hopefully can complete 8-10x
hope to run the full 10k in these sometime in the near future

10K race pace in spikes = 大神 level

hopefully... will not become handicap after run tomorrow

jokes aside, the on foot feel is relatively cushioned... the stack height in the forefoot is similar to the adios 9 but much much stiffer in feel.

Pen B is good already. Anyway it’s nett time. You just need to camp in front of your pen can already.

I am starting from Pen F lmao. But this year only HM and 5km runners so I think still ok

Good luck man. Hopefully the crowd is not that bad. Honestly..overtaking so many runners is quite a nice feeling also

for Singapore, National Federation should be SA sanctioned races. Other than SCSM, which is WA sanctioned, I don't think there's another SA sanctioned HM here. 10km or 5km have a few for their athletes meets.

2XU, for the last two year hoohaa for their shorten distance, make sense why SCSM insist on sanctioned race as proof. So does Boston Qualifying. Make sure is a WA sanctioned race, or else waste money.

Seems like for the locals, the another alternative is to race overseas.

Sub 130 whlist in Pen F? Will be the biggest achievement for sure imo.

SCSM runners, race guide is out. Check the refueling station, 13.3km , 22.3km and 34.1km. Looks like this year gel is Saurus Aminosaurus. 25g carbs...
Can carry 3 less gel if this brands suits you. I might get a couple to test my stomach tolerance .

Not sure what type of saurus gels (Elite & Non-Elite) is being provided for this year's SCSM, but I've tried the lemon flavor and let's just say, Its slightly less thicker as GU and the flavor is quite sour too.

Good siao on pacer for 3:00. Like in army, maybe some folks here shd go run in CN try try

Giving it a shot haha.

Tried all 4 Saurus Gels before. They are very sour but as what Skyrillex said,they are watery thus not that thick. If want to use this gel on race day,better try it beforehand. I reckon it won’t be for everyone. But just take and keep since 01&02 is around 4+ bucks and 03&04 around 7+ iirc

Lead

Looks like things like spinach, white bread, sweet potatoes (that time i did sound this one out) and other stuff that we encounter in real life lagi higher than whey protein powder.

When bathing and going out to buy food I remove the neck sling. At home I then use the sling.

feel lazy to use the sling cos restrict movement a lot

Get well soon and come back stronger.

Speedy recovery. It is down time like this that really hit hard on the fitness you have gained over time.

Thank you
