Back to Basics

Been slacking lately so din bother to update the blog.

Did a 8km late night after Megan enter dreamland. As I proceed to each step I was strangely remind of the Joy running. Seems that nowdays, running involve shoes tights & expensive gear and the aim to get PB.... In the mist of all the training, seems that the JOY of running of lost.

As the reach the 4km mark, I slowed down my pace & listen my body, really listen to each step that i take, each stride to i move.... & manage to learn a bit abt of myself in the process.

I just its time to get back to the basics.... the fundmental of running.... so am i heading to the right direction... only time will tell.

Still pending on signing up fof KL marathon, passion run & AHM 2009.

Shall pend a while more....

HAPPY VALENTINE DAY!

LSD 30km ECP

Today, burnz, tao, regina, yankee, stuck, fennel and mio. gather for our base training over at F2 carpark. Idea was to do 30km in prep for SD.

Maybe due to the fact its still CNY, mood was a bit slack....

Though we manage to complete the LSD, we manage to learn a fwe things today

1) When you reach the 10km mark, dun ask anyone any questions just turn back, u will never regret.

2) When doing LSD on coastal road, assume the unexpected, dun expected the vending machine to be working.

3) When buying drink from vending machine, insert 10cents coins first, if it works proceeding to drop more coins, vending machine can be out of order.. u know.

4) When taking water breaks, dun sit while enjoy your drinks... will delay you in restarting your engine again...

Manage to achieve a sub 1hr for this race amidst of all the fast runner, my timings is only a scrap of the icings.

Will use this series as part of my training in prep for DNF..... coolz
