Two Seconds - May 2022
Kuala Lumpur / Singapore.
Eliud Kipchoge's marathon pace, revisited
Superhuman.
Continuing the tradition of making body outlines in sweat
It really is just too hot.
That said, the post-run shower beers are unbeatable.
Sneaking in my monthly 300,000
Harder than expected to fit this in.
Two Seconds - September 2021
The weather improves. A terror attack in West Auckland. First run in months. Lockdown continues.
Garmin Forerunner 245
A replacement for the old TomTom, which recently gave up the ghost after about five years of problem-free use.
Vaporflys, explained
(Added to wishlist).
Post-7km
“If it ain’t raining you ain’t training”, as they say.
Setia Alam hillclimb
A tough uphill grind in the heat.
Eliud Kipchoge's sub-two-hour marathon
Unbelievable pace. Video recommendation C/o MJB.
Huntly Half Marathon, 26.05.2019
No records shattered here, but still worth it.
Kicks, evolved
Asics Nimbus 17 (left) and 21 (right). No major differences beyond a colour change, a few adjustments to the sole, and a slight weight reduction. The 17s lasted nearly five years, which definitely justified their price.
