11K Run - Tempo
Today’s second (and thus last) run. I purchased a new pair of super trainers : the ✨ASICS Magic Speed 5✨s. So that’s ofc what I ran in (couldn’t resist 🤪). And you don’t run slowly in those 😎. So I basically just went with it … as I warmed up I settled on my aroundish threshold pace. The shoes made me. It was a fantastic experience. These shoes are basically race shoes too. Feels like the metaspeeds, except much more stable.

@moelholm Wow! Sounds like I need to check these out when I‘m about to replace my current ones in a few thousand kilometers. Won’t take *that* long, though.

@sebastianhahn that will take you a month 😂. Note that these are with a carbon plate - so they’re are meant for tempo/intervals/races sessions (super trainers were thus probably not my best wording; as that would much more match Superblast or Endorphin Speeds. They’re more allround). It also means they generate another load on the lower legs which requires some getting used to. It can be injury prone if you aren’t super careful. That said : they felt really really great 👍🏻
