PBIM result.
Nett time: 6:32:00
i should start do more strength training especially on the leg.
i do plank 2 times a day for 2 minutes each and i can say it really helps.
hopefully sub 6 SCKLM next year.  tongue.gif

*saw some people cheat take u turn. really piss me off!  vmad.gif

rclxms.gif rclxms.gif well done!
I did my virgin FM in PBIM this year too!
I found out that strength training helps in preventing injuries and core training helps in posture and speed thumbup.gif

I only have a pull up bar, so I do some calisthenics-based exercises, e.g. varieties of pull ups and leg raises. You can try variety of push ups, planks, crunches, and squats. No-equipment strength training is easily available online thumbup.gif

Nope, but i stopped at every water stop for drinks/100+

And thankfully there was one station(last?) that gave one powergel, took it, ate it.

Do you need to eat during a 21k/42k run? Seems hard...

I'm not so sure about FM because I just ran my first in November. hmm.gif

But from my HM experiences, I don't find 100+ useful for energy (too gassy and only helps in replenishing a bit of electrolytes).

I do take gels during HM but depending on the course. If it is a hard course or I'm aiming to go all out for a PB, I will take gels at km10 and km15-16. A good carbo-loading helps very much especially for the first 10k to tackle it hard.

sockless??!! what shoes u wear? dont get any irritation or blister?

I alternate between Brooks PureDrift and PureFlow 5 for road running. Merrell Bare Access Trail for trail running and OCRs.

Sometimes get some chaffing from improper lacing, especially trail run and OCR, but 95% of the time got nothing (maybe the skin got thickened over the years).

But all of the shoes are seamless, so there won't be any chaffing spots within the shoes rclxms.gif
