i don't train in track but i can ran below 5mins pace .. it all depend how you train .

Thanks for the recommendations!

Brooks voucher there are 2 from what I can google... RM 180 rebate is only for selected types (excluding Ghosts). The other one is for RM 160 also mentions selected international shoes > Rm 400.. so will need to call up to ask.

Anyone has the RM 160 voucher to let go in Klang valley?

On the Saucony, I think the Freedom ISO has the everun soles, might give it a try if I see them on the shelf.

Decided on the ON Cloudflow, together with wife so we each got a pair!
Manage to get it at RM 495 based on the 20% from running lab as well.

Is there any recommendation for running shoes within RM200 nowadays? Seems like can't find any.

How about RM250 which I think is the best I can go for? Any recommendation across that price range?

1st penang bridge half marathon and will also be my last, very very very bad experience from the organizers.

1st issue, during collection of the pack, i was given smaller size shirt as they said this year shirt is made larger and asked me to go next counter exchange if wan bigger size. went to exchange for bigger size, told me the shirt size no more d. i complained on the spot and ask for refund then magically they got one LAST shirt tht is the size i wan.

2nd issue, finished the race and everyone was force to queue at a small area for medal collection. there are thousands of people and they wan everyone to cramp there and wait for hours to collect the medal. very badly organized

3rd issue, after queuing for hours i was told that there is no more medal. WTF, i flew all the way from outstation, paid to join the marathon, finished the marathon in time, queued for hours, and i dun even get my medal coz the organizers decided to songlap money and order less medals. i heard that full marathon people doesnt even get their finisher tee coz no more finisher tee as well.

poorly organized for a so-called international event, will not take part anymore and also will tell people not to take part in it

Not sure about the required weekly mileage for training.
I've done more than 10 FMs but my weekly mileage was never more than 40KM except for the race week. Rarely touched 30KM too. 
My PB was 4:18 and i was still holding back a little bit at that time.

what would be the suitable intake of power gel for a HM?

this would be my 4th HM - but previous 3 didnt take any gel whatsoever

wanna try taking power gel this time but wondering how many and @ what km should i take.

I still unable to do sub4 yet but should be doable next year. (hopefully)
Maintaining at 7min per km is about discipline and self control, i did my 1st sub 5 2 years ago, maintaining at 7 min pace from KM1 till finish. Holding the urge to run faster at the beginning to prevent burn out later.

Nowadays, I prefer trail more than road... 

well.. always run out of energy after half way .... legs jelly ...
wanna see how well does energy gel helps

where can i get it? if i plan to get only 1
LOL

any tips to maintain pace longer?
i can maintain 7m/km pace for the first 10 ~ 15 minutes only
after that my legs become so tired and i have to walk for a few minutes before cont the running

pharmacy like watson or guardian?

want to join running,for now i just jogging & running lil bit. need to workout at gym also? tq

any updates on klang city marathon?

TEACH ME MASTA! I'm eyeing on the Janda Baik Ultra and depending on how crazy my other mates are there's a small chance that we might try 100km lol. But i still got a lot to learn and train, especially since im not that experienced with long distance trail runs. The more i read about it the more nervous i feel and started to think if im rushing it lol.

How was your first 100km event and how did you prepare for it? Do you really run a lot every week in preparation?

Heat training meaning like running at high noon?

18 hours seems easy

dont think need much training

why? 18 hours seems easy bro

can rest and sleep in between

i myself carry 500ml bottle, dont like the crowd during first 10kms (if its 5km gap between water stations)
