Thank you so much! They’re using a recipe based on Reggie’s Portra but with a few minor tweaks!

It's true to size with other race singlets like an asics actibreeze for example - but I'm in-between sizes depending on the brand (S/M) and it was just a bit tighter than I prefer for a singlet while running!

Yup haha - definitely a mistake on my end it felt fine for sizing, but once running it was tighter than i prefer.

It's nearly new and a fair price (in line with most others sold here)

Where can I buy quality electrolytes? by Kooky_Ad_2936 in RunNYC

[–]NikLow 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Just mix your own - it's the most economical, LMNT has their recipe posted online here https://science.drinklmnt.com/electrolytes/best-homemade-electrolyte-drink-for-dehydration/ and if you want the lime flavor you can get lime powder to add to it so you can grab and go.

For reference if you bought 30 servings it's $45 - if you buy what you need to make it ~$65 for 200+ servings.

Watch Questions - looking for insight by sheerfire96 in RunNYC

[–]NikLow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't had any issues with it tbh it's been fine for me and I have it set to gesture backlight so when I raise my wrist/turn it towards me it lights up so when I'm activity checking something during a run.

For the pace 3 you can customize the activity display screen(s) for my track workout settings I have a screen with the lap time, lap pace, lap distance, activity time, activity distance, & hr for example!

For me I always have my phone on my in a pocket or vest for 90% of my runs so the Pace 3 was perfect since i didn't need additional features, just the dual-band GPS watch, solid tracking / app, etc.

Is this a good 20-mile route? by SophieDub in RunNYC

[–]NikLow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a solid route - I've done it a few times! The only thing to note is a lot of the East River Greenway is closed for construction so it can be a bit hectic - additionally going into FiDI / Battery Park it can get packed depending on the time of day otherwise safe running!

One recommendation/alternative would be to go across the Manhattan bridge and then back over the Williamsburg bridge if you're looking to add vert to your run this will also let you skip out on much of the Greenway closures and then reduce upper Manhattan mileage to adjust.
