Lactate Threshold & NIRS (Moxy, BSX)

I've written up my notes on Lactate Threshold & NIRS, which is the technology behind the BSX and Moxy sensors. It's rather more than most people will need, but I'd like you to know the basis on which I'm evaluating these products.

Saucony Endorphin Review

Can the Saucony Endorphin displace the New Balance RC5000 as the fastest running shoe? Saucony Endorphin Review (I also compare it with the Mizuno Wave Universe, Asics Hyper Speed, and the Asics GT 2000)

Changes to GPS Accuracy testing

I've made two changes to the way I calculate GPS Accuracy scores. The first change is that the overall accuracy is now a combination of Precision and Trueness, which changes the relative order slightly, but the underlying detailed results remain the same.

The second change is that I'm now calculating Precision rather differently. Instead of treating every lap equally, I now group them by the segment of the course, calculate Precision for each segment, and then combine the results. This is to offset the problem that some watches have a slightly higher percentage of their lap data for different areas, mostly due to me failing to hit the lap button occasionally. This does change the underlying results, with all scores increasing slightly due to the underlying math. This also changes the order, which is why I made the change. 

For the updated results, see GPS Accuracy and for details on my methodology see GPS Testing Methodology

Altra One 2.5 Review

Tempo Runs: are they good or bad?

Tempo Runs: are they good or bad? Well, coaches and science say radically different things.   (This is part of my review of BSX and Moxy, with a lot more to come)

Hoka Odyssey Review

The Hoka Odyssey is nearly identical to the justifiably best-selling Hoka Clifton. The Odyssey was created by Hoka for sale in larger stores, which protects the specialty running stores. So just how close is the Odyssey to the Clifton and Clifton 2? Here's my analysis and comparison - Hoka Odyssey Review
