Joey, wow u have great budget for a pair of running shoes.  Then I shud intro u to NEWTON. Definitely the technology to enable forefoot / midfoot running for better efficiency.  NIKE will never come near to such technology.  let me know if you are interested.  else just pay 300+ for a great pair of top end SAUCONY Triumph 6 (voted best cushion shoe by Runners World)

Yea...I'm kind of new here. I bought the Nike's Max Tail Wind. (I really forgotten it's full name correctly but that pair of running shoes is Heaven!)

Anyway, the weather seems warm these couple of months. I'd rather stay at home doing my stuff. Well, for those who are into running, drink lots of fluid and keep hydrated.

Regards, Joey

Hey guys, i'm new to running but lately i kept getting same injuries around the shin and heel and finally decided to buy a pair of decent running shoes.

Was using BATA (Buy And Throw Away!), then all the pain came up after jogging for days continuously. So now i just bought a pair of Asics GT 2120 without even considering the other brands since i'm still new to running itself. i can only jog a maximum of 2.2km in one go then need to rest.

Also when i was testing other shoes like adidas, nike, i didnt quite like it due to the fitting. At that time i didnt know what Asics is, but i just tried on since the pricing was more expensive than nike and adidas range, i thought there maybe reasons for it.

The first try it fits perfectly except for the arch support that i find irritating. then i consult the shop assistant that my arch hurts, and he told me its normal since it acts as a support. so i tried walking around and realized i dont feel much pressure on my shins, ball of foot and heel.

Feel free to comment, advice will be much appreciated. thanks!

Am taking flight to Singapore for Women 10k on the 1st of November. Return ticket RM95 only via Air Asia. Plus RM9 for shuttle bus from KL Sentral. Cheap!

Yesterday went out shopping. Saw a new Max Air. Silver+Light Green coloured. RRP at RM519 if I'm not mistaken.

Regards, Joey

yay! another satisfied Asics user! 

do remember this Asics takes sometime to break into, due to its cushioning and support it needs to mould according to your feet and of course you need to get used to it as well,

so if you feel slight aches on your foot during the first few runs its probably due to your shoe where the cushioning is still hard, my Asics took at least about 50KM to break into after that fantastic,

using Brooks as my trainer pairs though

u use Asics too? 

Folks, as we all know, some members here belong to some runners/athletic clubs like PACM, Pacemakers, etc. I've started a poll here, just to see how many of us actually belong to those clubs. Maybe we can start one of our own. Thanks for your participation.

Hmm.. actually, I'm not a member of any club either. So, I just wanted to see how many of us are in the same boat.

From what I heard, a bunch of us here met up during the Men's Health run last month. Maybe we can have our vests printed out or something. Just a thought. Thanks for Ur comment.

Does MWR allow courier of bib/vest? Collecting In UPM is such a turn-off....

Anybody here use Adidas shoes ? Studio R 1Utama was having this sale, most of Adizero shoes were going at 30% less. Supernova series was going for 40%, some for 50%.

Its available at any supermarket mostly.
Giant, Jusco, Cold Storage

Carrefour also got. Used to cost less than RM10/box, nowadays it's like RM11.++/box.

I doubt it can be used with current 50% discount. normally it can't stack anyway

sigh, I've been so busy...haven't been running /  register for mizuno.

and to make things worse, some idiot scratched my new City. @$$hole
