When I was watching live, Shaun kicked very early, Subas kicked later and out finished him haha

Subas kick was insane. Actually there was quite a gap between Shaun and him but not sure how he was able to close that gap

Sometimes go out ride with youngsters like these quite exhilirating one. Dont always go running/cycling with uncles and grandpas in those "old" groups. Then at least you can still feel young at heart when you talk their lingo. Also got some health, mental resilience, experience and maybe even training benefits when you whack with them that you might not be able to get when you solo. eg "you hone your racecraft"

F, that xmm is fast.

According to Soh, some of the first few were there as pacers.

Those pacers went out really fast alright, but the first lap still a tad slower than yesterday's Kejelcha's slowest 5km split.

Do you feel the weather is so damn hot now and I feel the weather report shown in Strava also not accurate. It reported as 30 deg . Ran 5km just now in 28 mins and normally my HR can keep about 140+-2..at this speed .just now I was at 150 range and I feel that I had to put in more effort to maintain the pace ...

When I drove just now. My car shown the outdoor temp as 33 deg even though it already sunset at 7pm plus ..

Share some good news with all the folks here. Going to go for my first pacer gig in few weeks time for a short distance(not full marathon), hopefully this gets my foot in the door for future free runs. Pretty excited about this. Funny that 2.5 years ago, I was 104kg overweight and I’m about to pace for a run soon.

On another news, managed to hit 2000km of running for 2026. Let’s all keep moving!

Can do this, gotta DIY on weather.gov.sg, use the RH% and temp and input into a Heat index calculator online to calculate. Either that or just use google for a quick and dirty way on the I feel temp......wont be that far off.

For me, my workouts i surely will spray ice cold water nowadays, coz if wanna heat train for race (plasma vol) that is quite easily obtainable in within 14 days. Get one of those insulated cycling bidons on taobao, quite easy if your route(s) is looped.

Or i think you do satki track half marathons one, just put on outer track on the seating area can liao as easier to grab and put down as well, 3 bidons gaodim every 400m spray spray on front and back neck area then can flow down.

Heck, just now easy ride i also sprayed ice cold water. No need to torture yourself ba. If the sessions feel torturous and not fun then it's way harder to sustain things and be consistent.
Cycling is supposed to be "cooler feeling" than running somemore. For running, is only 1 weekly true workout of around 3-4km, then easy run to office and back so i wont really feel it that much compared to the rest of you.

Just calculated from weather.gov.sg

LAst night 8.30pm was approx 37.5 to 38 deg C heat index temp.

So yeah.....one of the warmer nights. Normally 34-35 is seemingly cooler nights, if lucky could be 32-33 if rained earlier.

Ya, last night run felt warm, but the winds are cold. So I actually find head winds desirable these days.. so were the past two weeks. For runs longer than 1.5 hours, I run shirtless now.

I just checked my Garmin activities and it stated it was 32 deg where Strava 31 deg...1 deg difference but I think it matters a lot .

I used to carry bottle and brought to the stadium but now I depend on the water cooler over there to hydrate myself. Most of the time the water it is not that cold

That one also can, is basically heat index temp + sun + wind.
