On weekend mornings in Singapore, many runners head out for their Long Slow Distance (LSD) training. However, the reason pace drops at the 15km mark isn’t just fitness—it’s 'Soggy Socks.'
1. The Mechanics of Humidity
In Singapore’s 70% humidity, sweat pools in your shoe insole after just 10km. Regular socks act like sponges, soaking up the water and softening the skin on your feet.
2. Physical Therapy Perspective
Physical therapists call this 'Maceration.' When friction is applied to macerated skin, blisters are 100% guaranteed. Vantage V1 Pro’s BioMax fabric forcibly wicks this moisture away, maintaining skin integrity.
3. Weekend Strategy
If you want to increase your distance this weekend, invest in 'drying capability,' not just cushioning. Vantage keeps your feet dry until the finish line.
