Any shoe over 10 ounces for a size 9, with stability (posting in the sole) and a high heel to toe hight ratio is beefy to me.

My Adidas Adizero Aces run about 7.5 ounces and are fairly flat and flexible. Most would find them difficult to run more than 10k in as they provide very little support (think slippers with soles), but I`m used to cranking out 15 to 20k runs in them. Again, it has a lot to do with my form.

For longer runs, I like my New Balance 805s. There run about 10 ounces, but provide a little more support than my Adidas.

lots of water. i wouldn't say i do it regulary anymore but i do it at least twice a week in combination of heavy weight training.i just use to run 5 to 6 miles a day but cut back cause it limits my strength performance(no matter how much i ate). i never used any type of special cross trainers or running shoes. i been using my nikes for everything i do no matter the environment i'm in or what task i'm doing. i like to run mostly in the winter time cause less people(or none) is outside to get in my way and i love hearing the wind howl. very relaxing.

i don't wear anything special either. in winter time i might throw a hat on and gloves but that's just about it. i go in shorts no matter whether condition. even if it's minus 10 degrees with wind chill of -20 i'll still go with just a t-shirt and shorts with a hat on(hat keeps the heat in cause you head is where all the heat dissipates at).

all i suggest is just take lot of water. stay hydrated and take good amount of rest cause rest is more important when it comes to physical activity and pushing your body limits. also eat lots of rice and pasta and keep fat intake at a very good to high level(fats are very important). even cholesterol(like eggs) was proven to be good as well(cause it gets converted to free testosterone in the liver)

The heat wave was a killer for runners. For example, I have been working the night shift, so my training has been transferred to the day. 

 

I can honestly say I have run 15k in 100+ (38+C) heat. That is a special kind of pain.
