vin_ann: Eh, same time as me. I lazy to go renew for my Macau Marathon trip. Wanna go together ar at Terminal 3?
hanjo55: Just stay at those backpackers inn. Less than SGD50 will get you through a night. Plenty at Bugis area which is a walking distance to the start/finish point. You just need a place to stay and to clean yourself up. If you go commando style, I'm afraid you will regret it eepcially after the race when you be sticky and stinky.

QUOTE(ccube @ Jul 16 2009, 10:09 AM) Shah, 4 months shud be sufficient to build up ur endurance. But the only problem for you is the puasa month break, that will disrupt ur training. If u can hack it, then just aim for completion of the run with no timing in mind. Taking into consideration ur endurance level is low ie <15k. Aug - Sept: Base training ie make sure u can clock weekly mileage of 30k-40k. And Sat/Sun will be a longer run of 15k to 20k Oct - Nov: Your weekly mileage shud be hitting 40k to 50k. Sat/Sun LSD shud be alternating between 25k, 28k and 30k+ This is a very tight program bcos you dont have a base foundation and the puasa month will disrupt ur training. if u think u can hack it, i will draw out a more detail prg for you to follow. Ccube, I think I can hack it. I want to give it a go. I think I can do it. I'm aware of the one month puasa...it's going to hinder my training regime a little bit but I've made a proper training schedule for Ramadhan. I would to know ur suggested detailed prg though. Thanks

steveysl: Macau Marathon and Singapore Marathon has been falling on the same date every year. Have done Singapore Marathon twice for the past 2 years and it's time for a change. And yes, the route is 2 loops.

Any sifus here can share about their experience on knee pain?? if u constantly hv knee problem after a run, chk out ur shoes. u may be having the wrong type of shoe. either its not support u well or the shoe is too hard.
