jogging and motivation thread

I had 4 runs now. But because of my plantar pain, every run felt different so I don't feel conclusive yet.

The energy rebound is there but maybe due to the high stacked cushion, the effect is quite subtle.

On a poor condition day, ran 6min to 6.15 pace. Felt sluggish and dragging along thick cushion.

On another better day, cruise 5.45 pace easily. Just run and the shoes bounce me along.

Thanks for the share. Just pulled the trigger for the 9U on PDD since they offered me gst waiver promo again. 550rmb for my size 45 but smaller sizes can be as cheap as 460rmb. My Xiaonian outsole starting to see some signs of wear and tear after 120km+. Think i will fit in the 9U as a slow run shoe.

Wow good price! More than worth it for the looks alone.

It should work pretty well for steady slow runs to tempo runs, especially if you like a stable ride. Enjoy!

My Bmi still below 19, do not require such stuff, just eat food that increases metabolism then u can snack like free

This one is interesting.
Dynamic balancing - tightrope walking (do it real slow for added difficulty, it's like fast cycling and real slow cycling) + head turning to 4 corners
Supposed to better mimic real life situations that may occur

Single leg raise + head turning to 4 corners is static balancing.

You heypi can liao. Skinny dudes also can train muscle one but whatever lar. If you think whatever you are doing is healthy and you got no image issues then so be it.

Wow I learnt this tightrope walking when hospitalized for slipped disc. Physio said is for training the trunk/core and balance.

Now I tried again with the looking around. Also tried closed eyes. Do slow and steady. Really tighten the core!

Might be even better than some other ab exercises.

My BMI almost like your . But I like to jog ( I ran up to half marathon at least twice a month normally) I am still aiming to improve my full marathon timing. So definitely has to keep going as long I am healthy.

 

[Sadisticnoob]

BMI not an indicator for fitness , can see the body fat percentage to get an indication

not too sure what steps counter you use but mine has been great for the past few years

So indeed it is a legit training exercise.

Ben Khoo got analyse marathon timing diff for Singapore vs other cool climates previously

Going to run marathon in gold coast, let's see how I perform over there lol

Sam Ruthe

His max capacity is 13.15 5k now. He is still more of a 1.5k runner. Most likely he will compete in 1.5k going forward.

I probably wouldn't run local marathon, prefer to run overseas even if it's more expensive

Why not? I think my virgin marathon experience last year was pretty ok.
