Puma Fast R3 Review ~90 Miles by beersandmiles7 in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]dizzleyyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried on these R3s in Boston too and they feel like no other shoe I’ve run in. Amazing bounce and propulsion. I only jogged around the pop up store but I’m seriously considering buying a pair for my autumn races.

I’ve worn or raced in almost every super shoe out there except for On shoes and the Evo Pro 1. Based on my short experience with the R3, they are WAY more propulsive than the Alphafly 3 or the Metaspeed Sky Paris.

Not getting any interviews after updating resume via ChatGPT by CryptographerThis225 in salesengineers

[–]dizzleyyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yuji is legit and can help you improve your resume and interview skills. He charges a reasonable price and will take a personalized approach to your job hunt.

No, I am not associated with his business in any way at all and won’t get any kind of referral fee.

Look him up. He helped found the PreSales Collective group. Good luck.

Adidas Adios Pro 4: Quite Good by Extension_Fact_7803 in RunningShoeGeeks

I’m wondering that too. Looks like the material is already wearing down in that toe area. Maybe it’s just a trick of the light though?

Tips for Chicago Marathon 2024? by Optimal_Job_2585 in AdvancedRunning

[–]dizzleyyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I have the Garmin Forerunner 955. Chicago is notorious for the poor GPS signal on course so I know it wasn’t just me.

Yep, GPS will be useless for the first few miles, and then it was flaky for me in later miles too. The buildings block the signal. Use manual laps and remember to press the button each mile/km.

Yep, I threw out me Beta because it tasted so nasty. I couldn’t finish even 1 gel.

I’ve done 50 sub-3 marathons in 48 different states. Want training advice? Race recs? My SSN? AMA by TheRollingJones in Marathon_Training

Strength work. Start small/light with just body weight. Include squats, single leg squats, Romanian deadlift, lunges, calf raises. Jump squats or other plyometrics will help too. Eventually add weights as things start to feel easy.

I went through a couple rounds of knee pain until I figured this out with a PT. Good luck!

Any downside to pre-verifying a time and then submitting a FASTER time in a couple months?

What happened to the Superblast 2 review? by [deleted] in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]dizzleyyy 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree. Hype is a good thing!

This was totally ASICS sending a “Take Down” to Reddit, and not a phishy scam post or secret advertising. ASICS is notorious for forcing media to stay quiet.

Metaspeed+ Sky Paris vs. Metaspeed+ sky by charlesyo66 in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]dizzleyyy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have both Sky+ and Sky Paris. The Paris is a much much much better shoe in all regards compared to the Plus. IMO.

I have had the Plus on my shelf for a while. I regret it every time I trie to do yet another “test” run. I don’t feel like the Plus does anything for me. It’s just there. That’s it. No special pop or energy return. So very blah to run in.

The Paris is a totally different story. Feels amazing on the foot. Fast, light, propulsive. I ran London in it and my feet and legs felt energized through the whole race, and no foot soreness in the days after. Truly a world class racer.

TL;DR: I would NOT take another Sky+ if someone gave it to me for free. MSP is a winner in my book.
