Saucony Endorphin Shift
1 or 2? Not sure what the difference is. I've got some Hoka Elevon 2 and after 100 miles they feel a bit flat. Might give these a go. (Being a 9 none of those Nikes in stoxk!)

I've not had much luck with cheat shoes.
Zoomflys have been returned, adios pro 2 also went back, saucony endorphin pros too.
Adizero pro are my most cheaty shoe, but they're not as cheat as cheaty can be
I imagine that a bit of targeted training would do more than lobbing £150 at some shoes, but I'm lazy

That thing where you go running in heavy rain and it's 3°C out, and your wobbly inner thighs get cold, wet, chaffed, and itchy af.
That.

When I’ve been running in hot weather I generally wear a hat dunked in cold water. I bought a Hoka bucket hat last year which keeps sun off forehead & neck. Just try and get out early/late before mid-day sun

Train properly for Summer Spine and arrive at start feeling like I've prepared well
+1 I've turned down free mcr mara spot as it'd not be the right focused prep, even for the sprint.
I've also turned down a free spot on Sunday for the Trig race as I'm not in 20 winter miles condition. :/

An alarm clock.
Best to get up early and run before it gets hot. If it gets really hot and humid then running is just no fun.
-
I think you should be fine - get a good drink in before bed etc and that sort of time you’ll be alright
-
Yep. If it’s too hot/humid (38 degrees or something) then nothing is going it make it better. Earlier in the day you’ll miss the burning sun.
That said it always rains when I go to Sydney (which was a couple of times a year pre-covid): summer, winter, didn’t matter.

Ooooh finally my area of expertise! I don't know how humid Sydney is but I've done long runs in 38 degrees and 90% humidity. Wear a hat and sunglasses. Dry your shoes properly when you get back as otherwise they'll start to rot. Run as early as possible. You said there's a drinking fountain - if that's the case then you won't need to take any water, just drink water before you head out and have a pocari sweat (other sports drinks are acceptable, I guess, but I'm pocari4lyf) when you get back. Oh and wear sunblock, australian sun is vicious. There are loads of sports-specific ones available in Aus that don't sweat off quite as quickly, but you'll need to factor in putting it on and letting it set before heading out (and also don't put too much on your forehead or it will melt into your eyes).

Seems the bucket / adventure hat has been discontinued
Ciele do one too that's quite good. Brims not as big though.

Anyone had any experience with Higher State jackets?
Price point and reviews of the below seem
very good… -
