9th May 2008

Time : 6.20am
Venue: Woodlands Stadium Loop + 5 rounds Track
Training : 34min slow run - approx 7km
Shoe : Nike Air Vomero 2+

---------------------------------------------------------------------

I wanted to try out my Nikeplus wristband on my estimated 3.2km loop. I was so shocked that it only clocked 2.68km and it took me 20.30min ....which means I am doing 7min 38sec/km. That's like super duper slow !

With utter misbelief and feeling unjustified, I jog to the stadium and starting doing loops to check my calibration. I realised that for every 400m I ran, it clocked only 320m, OMG!
If you have been following up my posts, you should know that i have just calibrated it yesterday and it is supposed to be more accurate...
Anyway one possible reason I could think of is the different shoe used. I was wearing a Nike Triax yesterday and Vomero today. Triax is a more responsive shoe that Vomero or should I say Vomero offers much more cushioning that Triax which might have resulted in the difference.
