Well, i believe you are running with a sweater and thick track pants on. You may also put on gloves and a snow cap. Shouldn't be too bad, perhaps you are still adjusting to the weather. I personally feel its still ok to run at zero degrees. But when it gets to minus twenty, don't do it. Hahaha.

Hey, there's me, though I live in USJ. But currently, I'm injured, and selling my singapore marathon bib (full marathon) as such. Details on http://runningmagic.blogspot.com.
I usually run in the morning before work starting between 5-5.30am on weekdays...touring both USJ and subang jaya. But if there's someone to run with, I'm happy to run after work, 6-6.30pm, starting at MPSJ. For weekend and holiday runs, it'll usually be outside USJ/subang jaya.
So anymore runners living around this area??

Hi, may I know if you training for sprints for distance events? Just keep updated at www.runnersmalaysia.com, or if you want to go a step higher, keep updated at http://pm1.blogspot.com These are groups that run regularly at lake garden in kl.

Hi there,

you indicated that skin's peeling off from your toes after running. Apparently, this is the blister you are referring to in point one. If there's pus coming out, then there clearly is a wound. Pus compromises mostly of dead shit. So no vital body substance is oozing out.

If its after work, then MPSJ is a good option. Its at USJ 5. Of course, there are a lot of other small parks around USJ which you can consider.

Hey folks, there's a new year race organized by the pacemakers

Generally, icing is done just after you got the injury up to like 48-72hours. During this initial stage, your body normally over-reacts to the injury by channelling unnecesary amounts of "reinforcements". This subsequently causes more damage.

If the injury has been at least a week already, one may consider not icing it anymore. By then, the body will already know how to send reinforcements in a controlled manner. During which, you may choose to apply heat to stimulate blood flow. Icing will not do any good by this time and it is likely to slow things down. Unless there is re-injury, choose heat over ice.

But more importantly, try to get an accurate a diagnosis as possible. This will help identify appropriate rehab exercises as rest alone some times isn't enough.

Hope this video helps. Perhaps you can start viewing from 3:50

Nice to see you recovering well. Yeah, it a really long video...and last 10min was for Q&A. But even the questions posted then were useful too.

just wondering if any of you guys here are going to KL watch the final stage of the tour de langkawi on 15 feb...its 12 laps around a 6.7km course.

Hey,

there is a running group in penang -> http://wwwarrior.multiply.com/

We know some of the runners from this group as they've ran with us in KL a few times before.
