Cyclists with a "Running" Problem

[ScottCM]

Good luck allergies can be a serious hindrance especially after all the rain and stuff is growing like mad

 

Don't forget your due diligence

Currently on them.   I change them up every now and then.    Then I also try to go without them if not need be and rather just go with saline spray.   There is other brands as well, but these are the cheapies.

 

I also keep OTC (cheap) Fenergan for when I need to dry up my nose quickly.   25mg makes me sleepy so I use that before bed or if I need to take one during the day, I use the 10mg.

 

All of these I only use when neccesary.

To the guys wearing Asics...  

 

Are you guys really still as happy with them and have you tried anything else recently? 

I hear a lot of stories that they chopped and changed between models the last while and when you go from a Nimbus 17 to 18, for example, there are quite some differences, so much that the guys don't like the new models?

 

I almost get the feeling that the Asics = No1 is more a South African craze thing?

 

We have tried the Nimbus and Cumulus in the past and I was'nt impressed, the milleage was not that great either.   And all of this at R2,800 for the newest pair of Nimbus..... 

 

What am I missing or is it just me.

[ScottCM]

I have ashma, ha ha ha.

 

 

My first Comrades i had Malaria 3 Weeks before the start, felt like dying halfway. But finished in 09:30, then 08:40, 07:40, 08:30 and my last one i entered and only decided a couple of days before that i will be running the comrades. Stupid mistake, i then finished in 09:21.( thinking i was very brave, but i actually couldn't walk for a week. was totally broken.)

 

Ah Ha, now it all makes sense ..........

To the guys wearing Asics...  

 

I am back on my GT2000's   

 

Ok...I pronate slightly..but have run in asics cumulus (neutrals) no problem last year (in a previous attempt to go neutral)...so tried the brookes neutral (as you know) and about 300k in developed PF which has been plaguing me since xmas..and now back on a new pair of GT2000's because I know them..and I have done the last 2 comrades in them and been running in them for 4 years now.

 

I easily get 1000km in them and just bought 2016 model from Poobies for R1300 (new pair is R1700)

 

What I don't like - the inflexible sole...otherwise I have always been happy with them
