I've been wearing Asics for many years now, and am looking to try some minimalist running shoes. Anyone try the Asics Blur 33s? Also looking at the New Balance Minimus. If anyone has any personal experience with these (not the vibram toe shoes), please chime in. Thanks
Try the Out There forum OMG Bwahahahahaha

Ok, so I haven't been running in this heat. Im all for 95* and a run, but 110-115* heat index with high humidity? Nope. Find a shaded route & it feels like over 10 degrees off what the stated temp is

Find a shaded route & it feels like over 10 degrees off what the stated temp is I need to work on running in the morning first thing. Im just NOT a morning person. That said, weather is in the mid 80's here all week, so Ill get some good mileage in.

I went out yesterday morning and did my longest run to date. 4.9 miles in 47 minutes. Wholly shit was it hot. I got a late start, about 10 and it was already probably 95 degrees. Ridiculous! I felt great though. I've been doing 2-3 mile runs at night so it was good to see that I can do a longer distance and still be ok.

I haven't worked out at the gym in about 2 months and just now going to get back in it. Cardio wise, is there a huge benefit in doing treadmill over elliptical? Do you lose a lot more fat from running over elliptical or other forms of cardio? Apologies if this was asked before.

I am not really preparing for anything just trying to lean out. My routine is weight lifting 4-5 days a week with 40 minutes of elliptical after every work out. At leased this is how I did it before. I intake about 1250-1500 calories daily. 5'7 177lbs, would like to get down to 160ish.
I start the elliptical at incline 8 and resistance 8, then at the 10min mark I would increase the incline by 1 and resistance by 2. I do this at every 10min mark. So from 30min to 40min I am at incline 11 and resistance 14. Just concerned that the cardio might be too much or other cardio routines might be better for what I want.

Yesterdays run, felt super strong on the hills. What program is that? I'd love to have something similar for riding my bike. I haven't worked out at the gym in about 2 months and just now going to get back in it. Cardio wise, is there a huge benefit in doing treadmill over elliptical? Do you lose a lot more fat from running over elliptical or other forms of cardio? Apologies if this was asked before. I'm not sure what your goal is but in my experience the elliptical never really prepares me for actual running. You're also supposed to put the incline up to at least one on a treadmill to simulate running outside. Of course, if you're just looking to lose weight then I have no idea..

Anybody using a fuel/water belt. I just picked up a single bottle because I just can't handle the 85-95 heat at night and am hoping it will help on 5+ mile runs. I use the 2 bottle fuel belt on my runs over an hour. It's also got the pouch which is nice for carrying gels. If you had a smaller phone, it might fit in there, but I don't think anything the size of an iPhone will.
i just bought a 2liter hydration back pack its awesome too. holds my phone, keys and doesnt move at all.

It was cheap and its actually awesome. Did a ten mile run with it and it stayed put. Ive tried some waist bands but they annoy me with the weight of the water bouncing around. Ill be running close to 12 miles with it on friday and having that water is a big big help.
