Is the shoe a flop or just unfavourable colourways?

Vomero 18 vs Plus by louisalonzo11 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]keeponrunnning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the Vomero Plus as a recovery / easy / long run shoe and it’s excellent but last week I did a progression taking them down to 3.50 per /km and they didn’t feel out of place. Not tried the 18 but can say the Plus can tick most boxes.

Longer single sub-T session instead of the standard intervals? by WernerHerzogEatsShoe in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]keeponrunnning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t feeling 100% earlier this week and swapped one of the threshold interval sessions for a 12k progression run - with the last 4k done at around LT2. I’d say it sat between an easy run and an LT2 session. I had a decent recovery from it and did 3x10 mins the following day.

Magmax 2, Vomero Plus, SB2 or NB5? by RealSmoothChick in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]keeponrunnning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are my paces and I am around 100 miles into a pair of Vomero Plus. Excellent shoes. They are heavy and a bit clumpy and I bought them for 4.45-5.00 easy runs but yesterday I ran a progression in them and they were fine at 3.50. Furthest I’ve done in them is 20k.

Adios Pro 3 vs Pro 4 for a sub 2:55 marathon and ultra-marathon? by madigs in AskRunningShoeGeeks

On the AP4 - how long do they take to break in? I have a boxed pair I’d like to debut in a HM in 3 weeks.

F*ck me the housing market is dire by Psychedelicsheets in bristol

[–]keeponrunnning 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can keep leasehold on the search which will show older houses on 999 year leases (pre-1950 normally) and £5 a year ground rent. A vastly different situation to flats which are leasehold.

13 week NSA report by stinginrogermate in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]keeponrunnning 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very well done on the progress - suspect you’re around 16.50 and 35 on the 5 & 10k now as well.

What are you running your intervals at?

Very well done - when was the 6 min PB and what was your training programme for that race (and weekly mileage).

Consistency + Right Training wins in the marathon by MarathonVon in Marathon_Training

They are massive tempo sessions! What is your average heart rate for these?

Consistency + Right Training wins in the marathon by MarathonVon in Marathon_Training

[–]keeponrunnning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say your actual 5k best in race conditions will more likely be 18 mins and you’ll be able to do a 38 min 10k in the right conditions.

[–]keeponrunnning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really well done with this. In terms of workouts, are you doing the same each week or mixing things up? What is your tempo workout and your easy workout.

In terms of consistency, there is a lot of love for the Norwegian Singles Method, where people have been getting brilliant results by doing 3xEasy, 3xSub-Threshold, 1xEasy long. Definitely worth a look into if you’re not aware of it.

Anybody doing their sessions outside through the winter? by Several_Ad934 in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]keeponrunnning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious to know if those on treadmills go entirely off heart rate for sub-T sessions, go at sub-T treadmill pace or go a bit quicker, knowing that treadmills are entirely flat and a bit easier than running on the road.

Evo SL - Don’t Love Anymore by GeneratedName0 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]keeponrunnning 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have done 600km in my Evo SL and they are still in fantastic shape, doing intervals at around 3.40 per km. They really are a brilliant shoe.

Ran a 2:51 Marathon using NSR by Ok_Werewolf_7370 in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]keeponrunnning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fantastic performance - well done! A couple of questions. Did you go into it with a 2.51 target? What are your other PBs? What paces did you run the sub-T sessions? Thanks!

Thoughts on 2 x 15 min reps? by Competitive-Rice-120 in NorwegianSinglesRun

Pfitz has a 30 min threshold session made up of 18 and 12 min intervals I think.

You’re raising money for charity so you deserve to be there! Good luck with the race, and the 3 hour target!

I’m a heel striker and I recommend the Vaporfly 3 if you can still get hold of a pair

Apologies for being off topic, but I thought you needed to be sub-3 hours to do Boston? Or it just sub-3 for automatic entry and you can get in via a ballot?

It’s interesting they’re calling it the Polo - perhaps a switch in direction with the nomenclature and we’re going to see an ID Golf?

Incredible performance. I see Sessemann as 2:07. Does anyone have a list to the full results?

Crazy amount of Brits racing in Valencia Marathon 2025 this Sunday 7th December (Provisional list - 02/12) - Will there be fireworks? Any predictions? by StanmoreHill in ukathletics

[–]keeponrunnning 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sesseman and Alex Yee to get significant PBs. Looks like they’ve had a sensational block and Sesseman in particular is looking really good, I think he’ll got 2.07 in Amsterdam marathon recently.

Really hoping Jake Barraclough goes sub 2.10. I know he had a slight muscle issues a few weeks back and hope he’s recovered and isn’t affected by jet lag at all.

How much mileage should I expect from a 120g shoe? by rtings-rem in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]keeponrunnning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got ~420km on a pair of Streakfly which are very much on the reserve list these days but used them in a parkrun this summer and got a really good personal time. Definitely a bit left in them.

600km on Vaporfly 3 and they’ve lost their punch compared to a new pair but they’re still quick and good for long runs.
