S4vtec 3rd Gear June 30, 2011 Share June 30, 2011 Woot!! reporting in too.. I try to run at least 3 times per week. Mixing in different terrains and enviroments to prevent boredom. typically Mondays on road, Wednesdays on track or Gym, Fridays Road and weekends a visit to Macritichie. On rest days will do tabata intervals Last running event was sundown 2011 which i swear to boycott next year if it is to be held at the same place. Traffic was horrible! Signed up for 21km for this year's SCSM! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4vtec 3rd Gear June 30, 2011 Share June 30, 2011 Google Chi runing, Evolution running, POSE running videos or even barefoot running. Basically avoid heel strike at all. Land on the ball of your foot. Do not lock your knee, instead flex your knee when you land so your calf and thigh muscle takes up some of the shock try the Newton running shoes! helped me a lot. I suffered from chronic ITB too but a change in the ruuning postur and shoes made a big difference Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am on my 2nd pair of issac guidance. it was good for distances up to 21km. Had some difficulty in the transition period. The calves and sole hurts like hell.. having said that, on the shoes i can run faster and more efficent. don't feel tired so fast..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darryn Turbocharged June 30, 2011 Share June 30, 2011 I already feel guilty about it so don't scold me. But really - if I come home and go jogging, it would take a lot of time away from family. I wouldn't be able to help my kids with the homework or anything like that. There's one guy over here that goes running with his son - could you do that?

After my 1st pair of Newton worn out (about 200km), i have give up on Newton. Now, i found better shoe, Saucony Kinvara. Suppose to be Minimalist shoe. Did Passion Run 25km in it & no problem at all. Downside is it last only 200+km only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanly 5th Gear June 30, 2011 Share June 30, 2011 Wow.. most of u guys are great to have 3-4 runs per week So far I'm limited to just 1 weekend run as by the time i reached home fr work... is late, tired & hungry... excuses?? Typically hit 6-7km for that single run... longest race is the 1/2 marathon in last yr Standchart... will be doing the same 1/2 marathon again this year... no guts for the full one yet. Btw, i'm using the Garmin watch with heart rate monitor... non GPS version, so also need to use the foot-pod to measure distance/speed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilomatrix 1st Gear June 30, 2011 Share June 30, 2011 Anyone here uses the Polar watches? Do these measure heartbeat without the use of chest strap? Any recommendations? Been using Polar since 1995. The chest strap is the transmitter and it's ECG accurate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hjteo 1st Gear June 30, 2011 Share June 30, 2011 Hi Ender, which minimalist shoe did you use? Vibrams? The KSO and the Bikilas are different altogether. I can run 21K on the Bikilas and it is better then the KSOs. Get blisters occasionally on the KSOs when hitting more than 15km LDSR. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
