Hey guys! How you all doing?
I read some posts and understand that there are group running sessions at Lake Garden???
If so, what's the schedule for the week? I'm doing my industrial training and get off work at 5:45 pm and can arrive at Lake Gardens around 6:30 pm.
Otherwise I just run at Fitness First IOI Mall. I'm currently training for the Standard Char Half Marathon.
On the weekends I run around my neighborhood at Setiawangsa for 5-10 km but it's soooooo boring to run alone.
I'm bored having cars, motorcycles and sometimes barking dogs as my running partners.....I need some motivation

metalfreak,
I thought I informed you clock tower?

thanks
I missed a whole week of training cos i sprained my foot
jus started my weekday runs, with minor discomfort on my foot, but dun care (not sure if its a good idea)
But can feel the stamina all koyak d, i feel so much more exhausted compared to before injury doing my usual run.

Just bought a New Balance running shoe, RM429 gone T.T
Tried other under promotion shoe, dont feel really comfortable about it.. perhaps it's the price's placebo effect

I've always thought UFL is the official disti for Polar HRMs, coz they were last time (when I was cycling, that was like 9 yrs ago..  ). Did U manage to check the price ? Are they cheaper than Davis' price ?

Just use it for all Ur workouts la. I use it at the gym, when I run, even when I play badminton. Just wanna know what kinda heart rate we're putting out when playing badminton, also the calorie count la.
AFAIK, all Polar models starting with RS is for running/multisport. & the ones with SD suffix, means it includes stride sensor. the X SD suffix means it comes with GPS tracker + stride sensor.

I'm eyeing the RS200SD/RS300SD. Those are below RM800 (from Davis' price la). I guess the ultimate one will be the RS800SD running computer, I think one of the forumer in this thread wanted to sell this. The new one is about RM1800 I think....

No, the RS200SD is not GPS compatible I think. The RS300X SD is the one with both stride sensor (S1 Footpod) & G1 GPS tracker.

Well, while U're at it, could U check the price for all 3 models ? RS200SD, RS300SD & RS300XSD. Thanks in advance ..

For RM1800, wont you guys consider a Garmin 305 / 405 which I think its much more superior.  The Polar that I saw Phoenix uses (which he had just sold) had so many small gadgets eg the foot pod that one have to wear. W/O that u just cannot determine your pace and distance. The GPS tracker is not so fast in terms of synch-ing up with the GPS.  I am a GARMIN user for almost 2 years and I must said its a fantastic product.  Just my 2 cts.

wah all talking about watches..unfortunately  abit newbie when it comes to Polar    but i heard now Garmin 405 is sold for RM 1500? is that correct?

After all the hard work, looks like I won't be able to run in the PACM NB 15K tomorrow. I've been down with a 40C fever since yesterday. Only now I was able to get up, after getting a jab from the clinic this morning. They thought it was dengue, but I've always thought it's the normal high fever I'd get once in a while, becoz of my tonsils. Well, all is well now, but I dun think I'd be strong enuff to race tomorrow. I wanted to take my vest & numbers this afternoon (since I've already paid for it), but I got up only at about 4.30pm, so it was too late. Maybe I can go the PACM office next week to get it.

To make up for it, I'm thinking of joining the Putrajaya night run next week (23/5), but I dunno if it's for member's only or what.

Bummer...   

vest is yellow this time. it's airy

Wei.... where all of y'all been ? How was the race yesterday ? 

hi guys,

i recently got addicted to running. i'm considering to replace my existing nike shox running shoes.
i've been looking at new balance shoes recently but i'm not sure what type is good.
i saw some light weight NB shoes (they are really really light). I'm tempted to get them.

what are your comments on light weight shoes as compared to the non light weight ones?

thanks
