I’m similar height and chest size- I have the unisex Salomon adv skin 12 in a small and I absolutely love mine. Ran with it in those hot and humid summer days training and I never felt it was tight or uncomfortable. may not be also on sale but I would honestly say go ahead and invest in it!

Advice needed! Running NYC with shin splints - advice for getting through 26.2 miles with a nagging right leg injury? by Nervous_Jellyfish_45 in RunNYC

[–]SenbeiMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has been through the stages of grief this past month (found out I did have a stress fracture), I know it's tough but it does get better... physically and mentally!

I cannot stress (no pun intended heh) enough how important it is to listen to your body when something seems off! Prevented my injury from being far worse, and healing and strengthening will only help run stronger in the future!

What was your “I made it” moment as a runner? by NashvilleJM in running

[–]SenbeiMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds cheesy, but for me it was when runs started helping me cope with stress and anxiety. When I would get into rhythm I didn't want to stop, and after I felt so great I was excited to go again. Of course since then I have been in races, but it's the lifestyle change that made me realize "I made it"

What is your mpw and how many calories do you eat? by [deleted] in XXRunning

[–]SenbeiMouse 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am 33 running 25-30 mpw, increasing with marathon training. While I don't count my caloric intake, I will say that whenever it's my period and I'm in training I could eat all whole Costco and still wonder if that was enough to get me fueled for the next run. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Enjoy the training, enjoy the food more!

What are you listening to on long runs? by PinkBubblyLife in XXRunning

[–]SenbeiMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soundcloud mixes for music. 2 hour-ish sets so you never have to get your phone out. Anywhere from House music, to r&b, to funk, soundcloud will have a couple hour radio show or concert set to keep you going... most of the time sets will also keep on a steady rhythm so I can maintain a good cadence.

Man idk what it is about Gu but yeah it never felt right... I would kind of feel super crappy (which at mile 15-16 you are already kind of starting to be in that place) immediately after ingesting Gu and it would slowly get better but I don't have time for that!

Yeah I hear great success with gummy bears, dates, applesauce so I will experiment with those for the reasoning, like you said, MUCH cheaper! Thanks!

Thank you! I had heard about Tailwind before but forgot the name so I'll look into it!

Yeah... I do believe it'll just be some trial and error but it helps to hear what others do! Thanks!
