The Peptalk feature is the best thing about Endomondo.

(sup Jack)

Okay so let's move on. Bandanna does not work for Kapital - please get the thread back on track and make it about Kapital and not about slinging mud at each other. Impassioned debate is not a problem as long as everyone keeps the personal stuff out of it.

MOVING ON MEANS MOVING ON

Is it bad to run in "cheap shoes" that look legit?

How a shoe looks is irrelevant to distance running. If you are serious about running go get your feet checked out at a proper running shop that will do an analysis of your gait, check you for pronation/supination and determine the best shape to fit your foot - brand and cost only really enter into it if choosing between several options which fit you the same way.

I am falling behind. Have been running sick this week and took a sick day today so no hill repeats for me tonight. It is a real shame to have to miss out on hill repeats in the pouring rain.

Pretty sure Haven picked up almost everything last season except the S-J30 and the womenswear pieces. Just because you weren't around to watch it all sell out in September doesn't mean it wasn't there. Also no hate but even ACR only has XL's left at this point, coming in at the tail end of the season and critiquing stores selections is pretty dumb.

I am also slow, but mainly because I am old and stiff.

It would be nice if people would post pictures in the thread of the areas in which they run - just so we can get a sense of the global nature of the group and the variety of terrain we cover.

I just sent friend requests to everyone in the group - my avatar is myself standing in front of a blue lake in case you were wondering who this random guy asking to be your friend is.

I'm in. I think I saw that you can also link Nike+ to endomondo.

True - I was able to sync from Nike+ - am good to go.

Well done Rob

I will do a test and see if I can run both Endomondo and Nike+ at the same time and then let you know if I can join.

even the video looks worse than previous seasons:/

Agreed. Haven't seen the whole collection yet but this could be the first season from which I don't buy anything.

The functionality is the best part! Use this shit for what it was intended for.

I like the functionality but tbh, there is one main area which they have neglected and that is in reflective materials. To date, the main reflective element has been the logo. I don't know if making the logo bigger is a response to the need for more reflectivity but I would like to see more work put into incorporating other design elements that catch light.

I have had to do a fair amount of night running over the last couple of months and I am by far the least visible person of those with whom I run. Blending in with the shadows is great for ninjas but not so great when dodging traffic.

just wear your tights again...unfortunate gyakusou accident...

I had an unfortunate Gyakusou accident recently. Wiped out while trail running.

I run in head-to-toe Gyakusou 4-5 times a week, trails and streets, and it has never been an issue. You would be surprised how little people care about what others are wearing.

Whats the appeal with nike+ (generally speaking)??

I only started using Nike+ because I am running along with others and they were using it so I got used to it. It isn't as good as the Garmin GPS in that it doesn't measure heart rate or altitude gain but it is serviceable and easy for people to get access to in that they can get the chip or band if necessary and it seems to work well with Apple products including the various iPods.

I picked up running again in January after Fall time change hiatus. I previously was using a Garmin GPS watch to track but switched to Nike+ for various reasons. I wouldn't mind being in a Sufu running club with other Nike+ folk.

you remembering what tattoo the man has is questionable

I remembered Diamonds' mother's cat's name. The mind works in mysterious ways.

I think the best way to figure out what you need is to go to one of those dedicated running shops and have them check your gait and foot strike and then have them suggest the type of sole that would work best for you. Trial and error works too, but it's expensive and you may risk injury.

This. If you are going to be doing serious distances, it is best to follow his suggestion and find a shoe that fits you best. Don't go in with a particular brand in mind. I did this recently and ended up with some seriously ugly Brooks shoes that work much better for my feet than Nike. I do wear still wear Nike but not for distance running.

no one

I guess it is just Mags, EDUARDO GOODCAT FLUFFERNUTTER and me then.
