Dirtbike Clutched July 1, 2011 Share July 1, 2011 I was comfortable with Asics Kayano for yrs. However, it is getting more expensive. So, i have move to K-Swiss Keahou II (too heavy) -> Saucony Kinvara (Very lite but low mileage) -> Saucony Ride 3 (My replacement for Kayano). Nowadays, i usually buy from Running Warehouse whenever it has sales. After shipping, still cheaper than Queensway. so norm u change when the sole wears out? thats what i normally do, but not too sure if its the correct practise..

Relagsingh 4th Gear July 1, 2011 Share July 1, 2011 You are too modest. You qualify for Boston Marathon liao.. Consider you as elite... Not participating in overseas marathons is one of my greatest regrets. For aspiring marathoners, Gold Coast Marathon is a good experience that's not too far away, nice wx, atmosphere and camaraderie.

Relagsingh 4th Gear July 1, 2011 Share July 1, 2011 Wow... run almost daily??? Salute Let me guess... r u a SAF regular? Your timing sure is impressive... probably the best in MCF... how can that be pretty avg?? Not a regular though... and trust me, there are freaks aplenty out there. Even guys older than me can have me for breakfast during morning runs. I'm really being honest here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relagsingh 4th Gear July 1, 2011 Share July 1, 2011 i am quite comfortable with my new balance, but of course wont mind better exploring other alternatives... how do you guys decide when its time to change shoes? on avg, training shoes should last u about 500 to 600ks, racers about 300 to 250ks.

Davidklt 6th Gear July 1, 2011 Author Share July 1, 2011 You can actually feel it when the shoes loses it's cushioning. That's when I change it. Protection for the kneels is more impt than costs. i am quite comfortable with my new balance, but of course wont mind better exploring other alternatives.. how do you guys decide when its time to change shoes?

S4vtec 3rd Gear July 1, 2011 Share July 1, 2011 Ya..thatz the prob he faced initially...couldnt clock more than 8km....took him quite awhile to get use to it.. anything that is good for 42km? i know of fellow runners that used Vibram 5 fingers for marathons.... POWER..... just stck with mainstream running brands( ASICS, NB, Saucony, Mizuno), not fashion brands( Nike, Adidas, Reebok) and correct shoe type( stability,/ cushion) and it should be fine..
