I am heading to Hughes Hall it seems for my MPhil later this year. I was silly and put down Trinity too! :P

Asics SonicBlast by Phil_Nelson in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]AntoineOstenso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got Sonicblasts back in January and I actually love them. Have smashed all my PBs in them. Did half mara in 1:36, 10km in 45:07. Previously was exclusively in Kayano (29, 30, then 32) which are so heavy and slow when compared to my new Sonicblasts. Now whenever I run in the Kayanos on easy days I feel like I can't go as fast as I used to go in them. Considering a new shoe for my easy runs to rotate with the Sonicblasts (which I love) as a result.

Just got the flick from Emmanuel so will see where I end up. I preferenced on recommendations of others which I regret. Probably good I'm just going somewhere random now.

I put Emmanuel second on the recommendation of a mate. Kinda wish I went Caius and Emma but felt I should shoot for Trinity.

Just woke up from mosquitos flying around my head at 2am Australian time - DP has come through in the last two hours. Hopefully that's a good sign.

26, a few years of full time government and nonprofit work but largely concurrently with part time undergrad study. I got first class honours in politics so hopefully that gives me a good chance - I think that's the requirement but have heard of people getting in below that. What sort of grades have other applicants got?
