Pearl Izumi Syncro Float 2 – best running shoes
The Pearl Izumi Syncro Float 2 is the best shoes for running. I recently tested mine on a rainy day on an uphill wet road run and it delivers well. Grips well even on mossy parts of the pavements. I am carefully choosing the paths but even if I step on water, or on wet rocky or grassy surface, the Syncro Float 2 delivers well.
The pair is stylish and with a unique square-mesh and seamless upper has 360 degree internal midfoot strapping, glued on external clear plastic. There’s also no problem during the night because this pair features a dozen reflective treatments. This is the perfect pair for neutral runners and I highly recommend it. Style meets functionality – Pearl Izumi Syncro Float 2.
Bowflex Precision XT Heart Rate Monitor
This just came in and will try to do a review. I am still trying to figure it out, so basically it’s not as simple as to put on the chest strap and go thingy.
Will be back after a few days.
My DailyMile this month
This is really mediocre compared to the past months. I should be logging 50km a week or more, but with so much multitasking I was not able to balance or to stick to my workout plans.
It’s becoming really harder to keep up with so much different passion, but priorities first.
This week I log-in 38km (as of Saturday). And my plan to ride the 100 km uphill to Ternate, Cavite was cut short by a typhoon.
Woke up early today and try to do a quick hill run in 20 minutes, while trying to figure out my new heart rate monitor. Will be posting something about it soon.
Be safe everyone. ^_^
Missing ride and run
Been missing a lot of run and biking these past weeks due to erratic weather and tons of family priorities. But still I managed to squeeze in some time, if it’s raining I worked the stationary bike or do a lot of core and upper body workout.
My resting heart rate is down to 57-60, not bad actually, a little less than that, the table says I am considered an “Athlete”.
There’s going to be 4 long days of no work starting tomorrow and there’s this idea in my head to ride to Ternate Cavite. It will be around 100 km+ ride back and forth. So a solo ride would entail some planning ahead and a lot of what ifs. But it’s still on the list.
Another concern will be the weather this weekend. AccuWeather says it’s going to be rainy, so if I am going to pursue the ride, SOLO, I need to be a lot of careful. We are talking the highest point in Cavite – Ternate, and the roads sides hundred of feet down.
But in my mind, I can feel the rolling hills and the amazing scenery. We’ll know in the coming post. Be safe everyone. ^_^
Run and Bike
Just finished a 5K run and a 3.7K cool down on the bike. It’s been a few days since my last run because the rain always gets in the way. I need to put more distance at least a two 10Ks a week and some long bike runs on weekends.
I’m still looking at that 100K bike ride this weekend, hopefully I could nail that distance.
Been doing some weights training – upper body and core workouts, to keep the balance and to avoid any injury.
There will be more climbs this coming months and I planned to celebrate my coming birthday at the highest mountain in Luzon, Philippines (Mt. Pulag).
Tons of plans yet so little time. I need to focus more on my training sessions and need to keep my diet straight. I want to nail that 5 minutes per kilometer pace so I need to keep the intensity and motivation high.
Be back with more updates. It’s midnight and I have to get some rest. Be safe everyone.
