Faye did the RPM Challenge tonight instead of KL. I did not manage to get my usual bike in the front row, and ended up in the 2nd row right behind this big sized chap. Translated - I could only see the back of him and not Faye on stage. Didn't help that Faye was also tiny and petite, so she was totally blocked from my view. Had to look at the reflections off the windows and mirrors to see what she was doing.
Bike ride started off with the right hip feeling a little wonky. Slight panic. Pressed the joint a couple of times. The feeling cleared off after a short while. Whew. Managed to build up to a decently panting and sweaty workout. There was a freshie in the class tonight, seated in front of me, and Faye had to keep telling him what to do. Very distracting as I kept looking at his wrong postures.
Spent a good 15min stretching after the class. No choice, had to do extra time on the entire hip area on both sides. Continued on foam roller at home and fell asleep on the ice-pack.
Collected my new SKINS capri tights tonight. Black and purple. :) Lovely. Looked chio too, they covered up to mid-calf. Felt smoother than 2XU, but less tight/ compression. Game to test it on a run soon.

FYI: Probably you know, someone is parallel imported SKINS products http://www.bwasog.com/sgdiscs/skins.html But again, since peninsula shopping center giving 15% discount. The benefit from price is less obvious.
Caution: Although labels inside the tights indicate machine wash is allowed, dun machine wash or sit on rough surface. The material can easily get fluffy. Luckily, under warranty, thus managed to get replaced from distributor. In addition, material is not suitable to be used often, else may need to replace six months after.
