run run run + shoe review

need to run faster faster faster. endurace (physical + mental) is like crap. weeeeeeaaaaaaakkkkkk
need more speed too... faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster...
btw...
did intervals for pe today 6 rounds 2.30min 2min rest. did okay... endurance still a piece of crap. still love sprinting way more. fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast fast
oh yeah btw the other option was 8 rounds at your own pace
didn't choose it cos i didn't want to give myself a chance to slack (walk) which i would have definitely done (not like i didn't for intervals) but heck at least i minimised it.
plus i hate running long distances => extremely boring u just keep running and running and running =.=
=>love sprinting hate jogging

Review (Brook's Adrenaline GTS 9):
Considering it's officially my first pair of proper running shoes (bought for technology not looks)
im quite happy with it.
good cushioning though might be wearing out a little faster than i hope it would
comfortable to wear
roomy toe box
biodegradable midsole :D (doesn't harm the environment)

some little problems
bit stiff gave me a blister on my second or third wear but havn't had this problem since then (probably into my 10th wear)
slight ache on right arch
very slight shin splints on right leg
both slight ache on right arch and slight shin splints occurred only during/after the recent interval training.
lack of grip as compared to cross trainers (not the shoes fault cos their made for running not courtwork in the first place :/ just miss the grip of the outsole of my asics gel netburner 10 which were stolen)
>.< still... running in nice comfy brooks adrenaline gts 9 feels much better than running in the cross trainers i used to wear for netball cos their made for different purposes in the first place.
sigh wanna play netball soon :/
dunno if ulu pandan cc will lemme organise another netball event (last year's one went pretty well :D)
ah well... gotta keep my grades in check as well for a levels... hai...

that's about it for today...
emo...

byebye ppl :)
