Just a general thread about running. How's your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

Training for a 50k in October. Got a 20k run tomorrow then an easy 7k Sunday. Next week is a deload week, which I’m ready for because things are a little sore.

Seen someone mention “hip tuck” on here and been trying to figure out if that’s something I already do or not.

I’ve also been wondering lately if it’s really necessary to size up my running shoes like I’ve always done. Is sizing up still a recommendation in general? All my running shoes are a half size bigger than my regular shoes.

Also, pretty stoked to check out the new Open Run Pro 2’s that just came out.

I just go with whatever feels comfortable, I don't really care what size it is. I generally have a decent idea of how a shoe should feel when trying them out, and I just get whatever size has that feeling.
