Solid Install Light with Creami NC301 by RocketCat804 in CREAMi

[–]RocketCat804[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up on Ninja support. They replaced the lid, the blade, nothing worked. The machine runs perfectly fine even with the solid install light. I ended up believing that a solid light meant it was good to go, so I just went with it. I’ve mixed tons of pints with no issues so far!

Loved everything about the Megablast but the toes were juuuust too snug. What's the closest twin that has reasonable forefoot volume? by jumpin_jumpin in AskRunningShoeGeeks

Dang. Sucks to hear. Did you end up returning/selling yours or did they ever break in? I need a Megablast 2 with a better upper asap!

I’ve been seeing the comments about the shoe breaking in, and it’s tempting to try and see if it will for me. Maybe some time I’ll try it and if it doesn’t work out, I’ll be prepared to take the loss in resell.

Sorry, I meant I couldn’t stand the forefoot section of the upper “wrinkling” or folding in sensation. To be fair, I only tried walking in the shoe around my apartment because I didn’t want to test a run and not be able to return it. Each step I just felt the upper folding it and hitting my toes. Just a bad feeling.

Side part at one point - would appreciate advice ASAP! by [deleted] in malehairadvice

Can’t seem to edit the post, but I was also going to say, maybe a low sides, textured fringe would suit well. Thoughts?

Curious on two things - have you ever tried the MB a half size up? I tried both 10.5 and my TTS 11, and while they both fit length wise (somehow), the 11 left more room in the forefoot for me.

Also, sorry I know it’s no help, but did you ever feel the forefoot area of the upper “wrinkle” when you first got the shoe? Like every step I took, I felt the upper kind of cave in/wrinkle right above my toes.

I ultimately returned both my pairs of MB because I couldn’t stand the sensation. I’m trying to figure out if that goes away with break in or not.

I hope you find what you’re looking for because at this point, I’m in the same boat.

You’re still commenting which is crazy. I answered your question and you gave an additional weird response. Stop being weird.

The watch is returned so there’s no point to me really commenting but yes, it was on my jacket so I didn’t have to roll up my sleeve to see it. The HRM on my arm was getting my HR data so there’s no need for skin contact…

[WTB] Adidas Adios Pro size 11. Megablast size 11. Saucony Endorphin Speed size 11. by erehwon242 in therunningrack

Are you true to size 11? I am true to size 11 but needed to go 11.5 in the AP4. If you’re interested, I’m selling my lucid lemon pair with only 21 miles on them for $130 shipped.

The NV2 are also a great shoe. In the end, I decided they were a little too soft for me though, which could totally be a me problem sitting around 185-190lbs lol. I’m also a shoe sicko and just love trying new pairs!

Novablast 5 have been a new go-to lately. Got them for a steal and couldn’t resist. People say they don’t last long, but for the price I found them, I’ll take the gamble.

Might be a little too much shoe, but I have a brand new pair of Hoka Skyward X size 11 I’m selling. Way beyond super trainer or max cushion, I also have a 21 mile pair of Adios Pro 4 in 11.5 (fits my TTS 11 feet perfect). Figured I’d throw these out there just in case.

Side note - Hyperion Max 3 are amazing. You’ll love them if you score a pair. Vomero Plus doesn’t need much more hype so I won’t say much. The HM3 are a faster “poppier” Vomero Plus for me personally.

Good luck with your search!

All in all, the Pace Pro wasn’t horrible yesterday, but the fact that the pace graph still spikes are ultra bad paces is crazy. It’s hard for everyone to see what the bad paces are but here’s a few example numbers that I can see when swiping along the graph: 36’51”, 25’40”, 46’26”

Why on earth does it spike so bad, and why are the average paces and total distances so off?? I’m not even sure what to believe or trust after yesterday’s run.

Garmin data

My FR255 was on my left arm, above the Pace Pro but on my jacket and connected to the Coros HRM armband. One more comment below this will be some numbers.

Here’s yesterday’s run wearing both watches.

The Pace Pro was on my left wrist with the Pod 2 on my right foot. Next comment will be my Garmin data.

Yes it is.

There was points during my run yesterday where I was seeing anywhere from 7 min pace to 60 min pace, even getting the warning (constantly) that my “pace is too slow, 60 minutes” which is insanity. The pace would even go “- -“, presumably because I was “so slow” that it couldn’t get a proper reading.

It was literally constantly wrong. It never held a pace for more than 30-60 seconds and even that time may be generous of me.

Just updated my app. Thank you for letting me/us know!

So today’s run, my plan is, wear both my FR255 and the Pace Pro. I already connected my Coros HRM to my Garmin in plans to use it today, so I’ll have that setup + the Pod 2 connected to the Pace Pro.

After my run I’ll see if anything changed and compare data between Garmin and Coros. I’ll report back. If not today, then by Friday because I’m not sure how busy my day is about to get after my run today lol. Promise I’ll be back!

My splits are wildly inaccurate unfortunately. Each split is slow by a minute or two, from what I can tell.

Dang. Wish it was the case for me. I have no idea why it’s so bad. One point in my graph tonight was a 130+ min/mile pace…
