QUOTE(lilredridinghood @ Aug 14 2013, 10:54 PM) Compression shorts like 2XU and Skins can be rather expensive, no Under Armour here and so I went with Nike. Quality wise, meh, but so far, good enough for legs workout days or running days. Placebo perhaps but I do feel that I perform better with it. Eh.. compression is for recovery lar.. i thought you wear that shit after you finish torturing the hell out of your legs??? that or you have deep vein thrombosis in which you should not be running in the first place if you have that...

QUOTE(lilredridinghood @ Aug 14 2013, 10:54 PM) Shoes, just check your foot structure. Runner Lab from Tropicana City Mall provides such service. I like Saucony and VFF but I no money  Shorts, very subjective and strongly depends on how long the distance is. Some get inner thigh chaffing before 10k some none. I get it easily hence I prefer a pair of compression shorts. Compression shorts like 2XU and Skins can be rather expensive, no Under Armour here and so I went with Nike. Quality wise, meh, but so far, good enough for legs workout days or running days. Placebo perhaps but I do feel that I perform better with it. BTW, not ultra runner here, just a casual one going for his first ever half :/ paiseh Lil, thanks for the advice...you bought your brain bucket yet and resumed cycling?
