Decided to invest in some trail shoesView attachment 1566660

I've got the 8 series and I have enjoyed them thus far.

I had the Fuji Gel-Trabuco trail shoes. Comfy and solid but my only gripe with them was the eyes that hold the laces snapped after a while.

Run on dirt roads skip tarmac. If I do more than 80km per week on tarmac my body starts failing me.

I've been doing MAF for 4 weeks. Cant wait to get on the road and move at a faster pace for a change.

It does get bloody boring tbh. But atm my choice is run slow or don't run

Yeah I do the bulk of my running off road. Tarmac and paving is hell on my knees

 

[eepr0m]

I've never done MAF. Just run based on how I feel.
My 5km pr in high school was 14:04 minutes. I still average around 19 minutes on most 5km runs when I'm cruising long distance.

Run slow then.

join a running group. Change routes often or run them in reverse. Choose a route with lots of hills.

 

[ShaunSA]

Run slow then.

That's the decision I made. Hoping to start up again next week Saturday
