I've been running from past 5 months. But this month I've found 5ks to be difficult and 2k-3k or speed runs to be my go to runs. Though my fitness has improved vastly why does such a change come. Is it entirely linked to the humid weather or it can be my 5 month old shoe or something that need not be worried much
A relative of mine will be visiting Thailand soon, and I was wondering if anyone here has experience purchasing running shoes or gear there.
Are running shoes and other running gear generally cheaper in Thailand compared to India, or are the prices about the same? Are there any brands that are particularly good value or easier to find there?
I’m especially interested in the Dynafish Xiaonian, as it’s not available in India and is almost always out of stock on Runner Spikes. I’m planning to ask my relative to look for a pair if it’s available.
Are there are any other running shoe brands or gear that you’d recommend picking up while in Thailand. Any suggestions or shopping tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I'm a 19-year-old male looking to buy a new pair of running shoes during the Flipkart sale, with a budget of 8,000.
I run three times a week:
- 2 km (easy run)
5 km (tempo/training run)
- 10-15 km (long run)
My previous shoes were Decathlon Kalenji shoes, but they've worn out.
Please recommend the best running shoes under ₹8,000 that can comfortably handle all three distances. If possible, rank your top picks and explain why.
I've shortlisted
Asics Nossa Tri
Asics Gel Pulse 17
Adidas Supernova Rise 3 M
Asics Dynablast 5
Puma Pro Series
Any suggestions will help. thank you
Shoes - Gel Venture 9
Terrain - Road 2 km, Park 13 km
Op runs regularly since Feb 26. He started running in 2023.
Op runs 4 days/week.
One day strength training
2 days off.
In 4 days,
2 days are reserverd for zone 2/slower conversational pace
1 day for tempo run (one gear lesser than top gear)
1 day interval run (500 m × 6) at top gear.
Op has started taking vitamin b12 and D3, after learning it has reached rockbottom.
So folks, if you are running do check your vitamin levels.. it helps alot.
Happy running, everyone! 🥳
Hi everyone,

I see the next event is Breakthrough Run but never heard of this one before and couldnt find much online. Does anyone know about this or any other good upcoming HMs https://registrations.indiarunning.com/breakthrough_run_33370

F runner here. I've been running regularly for last 4 months and my decathlon shoes have developed multiple holes in it. But it was very comfortable for me and still feel the same comfort while running in it.
But I wish to buy a new pair of shoes for running. I do a mix of runs via nike running app. So wished to know if you can suggest a good running shoe. Budget is not an issue but comfort is priority. I've covered 250km in past 4 months if that's a criteria to decide for
Guys Ive just done 10k today..! Feeling reallyy happy
Note* I'm not a serious runner. I just do home workout and play competetive cricket! Anyways My time is 56:00 mins and Pace is 5:40/KM.. I'm looking to run regularly
One day while running my usual HM, I decided to sprint in the last 100 m(😔🥀💔), and accidentally set my knee straight & it kind of impacted my knee ig.
Now after running 5k, my knee kills me & bestows some lovely unwalkable pain for atleast 2 days.
Plus the Achilles tendinitis, can't walk straight in the morning without falling face flat.
Any tips guys?😭🙏

I love running and it’s been a while since I ran. I tried to run 5k in under 35 mins as I am preparing for a hike but missed the mark by 5 mins which is okay, small steps to get back. Good run.
Ran 5.29 km in 42 mins 32 s (at pace 8.02/km)
Hello all,
I’ve recently started running again and don’t want to take a break as rains have started. Looking for tried and tested methods for drying a shoe post a rainy run!
Also, looking for options of shoes which are good for a rainy run.
Currently I only have 1 shoe - Puma nitro 2 which takes forever to dry!
Hi Runners,
I am looking to buy Garmin 265. Any idea about upcoming sale price ? Also, is garmin 265 better than Coros Pace 3 or 4?
I don’t have any watch and never used before as well.
I have a bone to pick with a lot of race organisers that do not offer race day bib collection. It seems absolutely insane to expect people to travel to another part of a city 2 days in a row for 1 event. I can understand this happening for bigger races like Pro Cam or Wipro Marathon, but for simple 10K races it doesn't make sense. Additionally, they don't even offer paid home delivery.
Additionally, what I have realised is many times these races partner with a local sports shop and this ends up becoming a way for the shops to get you to visit them. You can say this is so that the shop gets more footfall but I am (and most people I guess) not going to buy some unknown brand gear from some unknown shop. It anyway is futile.
How do you all collect bibs when the collection spot is in the other corner of city?
I bought a 3.3k TEGO hydration vest that immediately started rubbing against my collarbone and was a mess. So just went back to basics after that.
Also if someone can tell some very very essential gear i should have
5k run.
Distance: 5.06
Moving Time: 27:41
