    Looks like a well-cushioned shoe with one of the highest stacks but relatively low energy return and no rocker (according to the breakdown here: https://runrepeat.com/asics-gel-kayano-32). I would definitely suggest popping into a good shop to try sth with a plated design, doesn’t have to be...

    To add a datapoint, the Inbody body composition device produces a report that projects your calorie burn for various activities and according to it golf is at the bottom of efficiency(cal/min) 🥲 Behind walking and Yoga! Squash/racketball are predictably at the top. Running, cycling and...

    FWIW, I’d recommend using Canon’s “test the lense” service. It was free to have a couple of RF L zooms for a few days. They also then offer a discount/rebate if you buy the model you rented. Personally, I either buy new (again Canon offers various rebates throughout the year) or used from a...

    Ended up doing a local 10k charity run today, in the lovely winter sun weather - a perfect way to finish the year. Wishing everyone a great NY with no injuries and many hours of doing any exercises you enjoy doing 😎

    Back to 77km/48miles as ended up with no breaks this week. At this point need to convince myself somehow to take a day off, but find it difficult 😂 How did you do?

    Just done my longest (this year) easy run - 17km/10+miles. Feels like it should be a well-deserved rest day tomorrow (or maybe it’s ok to fit a short run?) 🙃

    Could’ve been worse — look up rhabdomyolysis. Only learnt about it from watching a doc about an Ultra runner.
