I'm new here.
I usually run 3-5km in the morning just to keep in shape.
Thinking of getting a heart rate monitor for run to ensure I stay in within my target heart rate . Is it worth it? I don't see many using it?

keep running on gym recently....well i must say running in gym is far more easier, i can maintain speed of 12.5km/h for 50 min to 1 hour without feeling hard. If outdoor, 12km/h for 50 min i have to run very hard.

Hey guys, normally I only managed to run 5KM non stop, and for these 2 days straight I've been running 6KM for each running session. This morning, I am starting to feel even more pain and sore muscles at the back of my lower legs and thigh in comparison to the post of first running session. Should I continue to run tonight or should I rest? For the record, usually I don't feel pain or have sore muscles after running 5KM.

GPS watches today comes with heart rate monitor. Not sure if there shops selling only HRM. I might be wrong. Do check the first page of this thread. TS got posted some info bout it.

Yesterday was my first 12km, Today I stretched further and did my first 17km+

I wanted to go for 21km, but barely can continue. So have to stop. Poncet 



Btw, collected my first event run kit. Excited to try out next week

How to keep running for 10KM non-stop?....so far can do 2KM only..and than pancit habis.....been running at Titiwangsa on weekdays....so far Fail....any advice?

johny2k, that is ohsom! me just used sandal for most of my run due to difficulty of getting the sole. btw did u ketuk those front strap (looks not to me)?

Just googled 'Huaraches'. Wow never knew this thing existed.

Tried running at 10km/h at the threadmill just now. Fuh so challenging and fun at the same time.

Another hopeful buyer...just don't get your hopes to high...going to be very tough finding a runner whose Not going to run that...I've been asking around a lot too...

Probably going to run as well on that night, no di* ah!! And hopefully can get myself another of their sidewalk banners 

Me always have sleeping disorder the night before my race Jumped onto bed as early as 9pm++, rolling on the bed till midnight and still couldn't finish counting the sheeps! Geez.

Seniors told me that is normal, once you participated more than enough races, this kind of synptom will dissapear.

Good thing is I feel charged & doesnt seem tired at all during the race. But I do sleep like a log after every race.

hmm...mine use more then 1yr, aldy go for 4FM travel more then 1000km...still going great, just no more elasticity at the neck there and got few hole and i just patch it back , yet still can use...

normally they would recommend u the Injinji, which cost RM50 per pair...but for myself, i use a cheapskate RM10 adidas or nike socks..no problem...

i tink its ur shoes problem...like for my feet, i have wide feet, and most darn running shoes are narrow towards the toe..   so i ended up sometime needed to get a bit bigger...

btw, u not using court shoes i hope?

I was looking around for running short pants (eg Nike, Adidas, Brooks). Fuyoh, branded really expensive. >RM80 range.

Is there big difference with those shorts or is it expensive cause branded?

I don't mind non branded alternatives, any suggestions?

Wah. That is cheap. Where can find such deal now? I don't mind reject quality as long don't cacat until got lubang at places meant to be private 

limited medal run was fun ...

I experience pain at the balls of my feet after running. Is it due to forefoot running?

Hey guys...1 noob question: When you guys run, do you guy breathe through your nose like normal or mouth? Don't laugh ya~

Hey, guys. Just make my another pair of Huaraches, this time using full leather material. Cost is damn damn high!! lol!! Share with all of you,   

thnaks man... it seems u guys are serious runner....

marathon half marathon...

this is my first time runnng 10km
never done this far... the farthest i ran was 5km... dunno whether can run or not..
any tips?

r

Finally i finish the 10 km run.. marayhoner stil running when i about to left putrajaya...

Run alone unable to find lyn runners.... sad.

But this was my first... excited to run more after this..

10km in 1 hour10 minutes... ok or not ?

guys and gals...

as i planned to go on a frequent visit to my condo gym (started and ongoing for 2 weeks already), focusing more on 15 mins run each for 2 sessions and some upper body exercise  and my gf is already on long term consistent gym going (mostly on treadmills and  body combat)...and also we run one or two marathons a year....not full marathon...

i'm thinking we shud get some supplements...especially for joints and the "knee cap thingy"..as we are  more focus on running...

any idea what to take? fish oil?

for now we are targetting to buy one bottle and share among us 2...and will go for one kind of supplement only now...

any advice?

Saw this fella posted his story on fb LYNR for last week PNM .. kinda inspiring me .. Just wanted to share it out ..
credit to the well done owner. 

thanks for the suggestion

hi....

nope..we are not 50s...we are both 28..

precisely why i want to consider supplement is because we don't want the constant running/pressure to affect our joint in a bad way and make us suffer during old age...

let's say it's just for precaution
