Run in a 4-5 or 9-10 km loop. Park ur car inside the loop. Can put banana or ice cold 100+ as well. 

Oh... the usual... tri stuff mostly, where at 50% it'll still cost U almost 200 bucks... 

I'm new here and need some advise in buying jogging shoes.....just normal use budget can be around 200-250 .... Any long lasting brand that I can try?  If now got sales then better haha can make a fast grab

my knee got old injury, not due to running but car accident. Since start running recently, I really need to be careful about it, wearing knee support and go slow (good excuse for slow runner    ) do prevent injury.  And my running pace is much slower than you all.

Also going to Taiping for HM. So far, very little info about it, still not yet sort out how to collect my BIB    , on website start 14-15 but on print out form only 15th Sep. Anyone have clue?

Year end, I also going to PBIM - FM. I am worry about it too. As said, I only start running last few month, completed 1 HM, Taiping will be next, then Oct will join Rock to Rock (10.3km only). I really lack of running experience beyond HM.

My Question :How to train for FM, do I need to run 42.195km in LSD  ?

Now, my LSD max is 21km, which already took 2.5 hours, not sure how I can find time allocation to do full distant(estimate 5 + hours). All feedback is appreciate.

One (big) loop is around 1.33 km from my gps watch.

For those looking for HRMs, there are some basic models from Polar for under RM200, but then it's very basic, U can only get realtime HR readouts, & maybe lower & upper limits... I dun think U can set zones & all... There are also models from non-Polars like Timex, Mio, even Casio. Study the specs of each HRM before making the purchase. Remember, HRMs has been in the market longer than GPS has.. & Polar still makes the best HRMs, in terms of technology, but others like Garmin is catching up very fast & Polar's decision to stick to it's own standards instead of going mainstream with ANT+ protocol can limit the choice of compatible accessories, especially if U also cycle..

Alternatively, like some mentioned here, smartphones have some very interesting apps that U can use for tracking, but not HR monitoring... Ur HRM must at least give ECG accurate readings for it to be useful.... & dun worry too much about hitting Ur max... I hit ..heck, even exceed my max all the time in training....

Running on treadmills are not the same as running on the road...
