Singapore Expats

Hi

I've just started running on evenings, but my current shoes are not the most comfortable for this. Can someone give me advice on a running shop where they can advise me on a good running shoe to suit my foot type. Thanks.

You can try Royal Sporting house.. Usually New Balance shoes are good for running. Maybe you can give it a try..

Try "Running Lab". The staff there can help you to get running shoes suitable for you. They have outlet at Funan and Velocity.

Thanks for the tips, I actually live around the corner from Velocity, so think I'll check it out after work tonight and see what it's like. With some new shoes all I have left to do is sort out my shocking diet and beer belly and I'll be race ready...

Once you get the right shoes...register for the adidas sundown marathon..night race..
check it out..

This will get you started to flatten (hopefully) your beer belly.. =)

Well I went to running lab in Velocity, and got some new shoes. Have to say the staff were very good and helpful and I'm quite pleased with the ones I got.

The sundown marathon looks interesting, but I'm running the Mens Health Urbanathlon on the 31st Jan. It's only 12km with a few obstacles thrown in, but if it goes OK I'll take a look at a longer race. I've been running for about 2 weeks now and so far so good!

12km with obstacles is not easy...not unless you where in the army days...but goodluck...!!..organize a team of 4, each running 10K, this is if you want a short run for the night race...
