Hi sifus,

Need your opinions here.. Just started running this year.. A very newbie here..

Asics Zaraca 4 and Asics Fujitrabuco 4.. Which one should be a better running shoe?

i was hoping it could help wit endurance a bit more thus delaying the cramp in my legs. for my case im not sure but i always get legs cramp when im pushing myself too hard, even if i use my legs too much during workout.

bought 2XU compression performance run socks, will review it later tonight

Anyone using the Garmin Fenix 5? How's the performance, worth the price?

I would think so..below are google results on speedruns.

Benefits of speed running
Sprinting naturally increases the body's endurance strength, making longer cardio and muscle strengthening training sessions easier to complete. Through sprinting and speed training exercises, the body increases its ability to store oxygen, which helps the muscles function in all forms of exercise.

hi guys,

i am new to running, beside ruining for my 4km and 1500m during my school time (which is 20 years ago, now 35 years old)
Currently am training (no previous race experience) for half marathon (SCKLM) that held on this April 2018 for almost 4 weeks

been doing 2 run a week
one short 3km run during weekday and one long run during weekend (best performance is 12km)
for long run, i am doing run walk. i will walk for 1~2min every 2km.

I also been lifting weight 2~3 time a week but since i introduce my running training in to my schedule
i have recovery problem specially after the long run or after my heavy lifting week

below is my new program schedule:
wakeup at 6am, start 6:30am and complete workout at 7:30am and go work at 8am
I reach home at 8pm and i need to take care of my baby, therefore no workout after work

Mon - Rest
Tue - Weight (compound movement - pushup and deadlift)
Wed - Weight (compound movement - push and pull)
Thu - Run (3km)
Fri - Weight (Squat & accessories)
Sat - Rest
Sun - Long Run (Aiming 10km and about)

the problem happen last Sunday, when i fail my long run at 4.5km and feel like my body is breaking apart.
Previously i been doing 8km (1st week), 10km (2nd week) & 12km (3rd week)
my body have so much pain from neck to my lower back after the 4.5km run and i still can feel the pain today at my lower back.

i suspect is my heavy squat on last Friday

my question, is this the sign of over training or just a phase that i need to go through to get my body adapt to this new schedule. 
Thanks for reading and hopefully sifu here can give some advise

Faster go buy other shoes. Still got time. Or maybe get a bigger size.

Personally I would avoid any of the Adidas pureboost energy boost etc series. They r half fashion half running. If u like the boost foam, get the Ultraviolet or Ultraviolet ST. Another serious trainer the supernova and tempo series

yes, it is risky to wear new shoes for 42km marathon as your shoe have not break-in.

If it's any help, my friend also with wide feet went to brooks and the sales guy suggested the Adrenaline GTS 18. My friend told me it fit him perfectly. Bare in mind this is a guy who can't wear most shoes due to width. U may have to ask the sales guy for wider version of the shoe though.

have ever try long run with the ultra boost?? if not, IMO its the same as new shoe.

Newton is famous for the very hilly 30km route.. hills and hills.... 

There's another 30k run in the mid of the year called Newton Challenge at Bdr Kinrara 5 puchong there 30km an 15km .

Don't trust him. That Newton route covers ammah hill. Which can be worse than the niamah hill last Sunday. HAHAHA.
