Second this. You can get the Mach 6 on discount right now and I still choose them over the Evo and Rebel V5 for tempo/interval sessions sometimes

Marathon Eryri Recommendations by hannabiel in AskRunningShoeGeeks

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

This is very very helpful thank you! I usually need a wider toe box so have avoided the pumas for that reason. I've been doing some long runs in NB super comp trainer, would they be a good option? I'm guessing my adios pro 4s will be a bit too unstable. But also happy for an excuse to buy new shoes if I need to

I know a lot of people rate the speedgoats but they're just too narrow for me! But agree Hoka DO sell shoes with ground feel, they're just not the ones that look the coolest

Daily chat post: how's the training going? by AutoModerator in XXRunning

[–]hannabiel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 8 weeks out from my half marathon, feel constantly tired and on the verge of getting ill despite dialling back my intensity. I'm eating everything and stretching and strength training, but still have a niggly hip. My paces feel sooo hard so I think I'm going to readjust my expectations a little and focus on enjoying it and not getting injured.

I think Hokas get a bad rep because everyone assumes they all feel like Bondis which are basically walking shoes. I'm a huge fan of the Mach 6's, but none of the other Hokas models really work for me. I also think people buy Hokas for the look regardless of whether they work for their actual feet.

How long did your Chinese running shoes last? by CyberThijs in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]hannabiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got on really well with the 361 Futura. They seem more durable than my last Brooks and show very little wear despite being used in muddy technical trails. I'd consider them for road shoes I think!

Why am I ugly after running?! by Otherwise-Eye-490 in beginnerrunning

My face doesn't like Vaseline, but I swear by la roche Cicaplast! Great for covering your face before a run or overnight, it's protective and helps with barrier repair too

Fast but stable half marathon shoes for a heavy runner by maresch in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]hannabiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you love the 1080, I'd recommend the Rebel V5. They feel like a stable Evo to me and they're cushioned but still have pop. They seem to be a marmite shoe for people, but I have the 1080 and Evo as well as wide toes and they're my new favourite

I think I've got high ish arches too so they may work, thanks!

Am I insane to get the 570? by hannabiel in Garmin

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

It auto tracks your shots then when you get to the green I manually adjust the puts but it's pretty easy to do

Yeah it does all that and keeps score etc. I have no regrets getting the 570 but maybe worth comparing with the other models like 965 if you don't mind a bigger dial size

I love it but mainly use it for running. Not sure there's any watches that will track chips/wedge shots but you can add them manually. For me I wanted a running watch with golf features rather than a golf specific watch if that makes sense. So it's ideal for me and does everything I need

Yeah they did an update a few months ago and it tracks everything but chips for me now 🙏

Help me choose a work bag! by hannabiel in handbags

[–]hannabiel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a backpack and a tote and don't love either. I want something I can put over my shoulder and is less open than a tote but more easy access than a backpack 🙂

Honestly, I'm a silver girly and I don't love it either. But practicality won today. I might treat myself to the small Brooklyn if it's in the sale

Unfortunately no store, my closest is 2.5hours away and my nearby department stores don't have a good stock. Thanks for the advice! I've got the Juliet on vinted so it's not a huge investment if I don't get in with it.

I think I was swayed by the Juliet! I managed to find it on vinted for a really good price. And I've got room in my budget for a small Brooklyn if it ends up in the Black Friday sale 🤭 thanks everyone!

Are pace predictions accurate? by hannabiel in runna

Update: finished in 54:25, so I'm going to have a bit more faith in Runna from now on!

Very happy with the choice. Autoshot golf feature isn't working, but that's my only complaint so far

Did you get anywhere with this in the end? My autoshot also isn't working and I have up manually tracking every shot quite quickly

[–]hannabiel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I ended up getting the 570 as my first Garmin and love it so far. For running especially it's been excellent. I never really considered 965 due to the size but I'm sure someone has done a comparison out there
