yea....i'm waiting =P I checked them out when i was in Singapore hehe

vin_ann: Yes, I do take supplements and Glucosamine is one of them. It's good to take even if one doesn't have problems with the knee. It's for maintanence. Go for low dosage and also consult your doctor first though.

I'm currently taking Blackmores Glucosamine 500

Not everyday..may be once or twice a week.


that reminds me, I have to finish my Sevenseas Fish oil before starting my Blackmores Fish Oil 1000.

I'm using the UD marathon belt, and also have a gel flask clip on... both give me no problems... UD marathon belt can hold keys, money, IC, plasters, lotion packets, (gels also)... then with the clip on gel flask, i can pour 3-4 gel packets inside for easy refueling... can take gel every 15-20 mins without needing to finish a whole packet at once... its suitable if you go for long distance running... this setup i mean..

For those joining this Sunday's Malakoff 12KM run, please be inform that there is a change of route. New route, please hit the link.
And also, the vest size is relatively big. It's from New Balance and I took XS. Please do check before you leave.

i see u all there with my lenses !!!

wah! you filled the marathon belt with gels, keys, IC (WHY IC), plaster & etc? will it bounce when running with it? it will be very frustrating when running that way...

but i think this is essential, normally the running shorts dun come with pockets maybe should consider to get a Marathon Belt

eh... from the Quick-Sport catalog, it says the belt has the reflective stripe right? will it last after few wash? since you are using it, can give some advise ... TQTQTQ

I'm saying you CAN put all those stuff inside... 2 pockets for you to fill up...

It won't bounce, it wraps around your waist pretty well... reflective stripe is built into the stitching... have washed it few times, no problems so far... you can try to contact Yong-Quicksport and view it first before purchasing ma... meet up with him la.. or you can buy it thru me also... i do re-selling for Quick-Sport..

the belt looks good, quite a multi-purpose one that can put some many things. Not too bad for RM59.

hi fellow runners...anyone who has experience running in Sundown Singapore can provide more info on..

1)pedestrian brigde-is it the same like what we use in KL?steep staircase up then flat walk way then steep staircase down?

2)i think i saw some bridges along the route on the map(in the Sundown website)..what type of bridge?is it flat?

3)THE ROUTE..is it generally flat or how much of it hilly?

Thanks for the info...i need them to prepare for the race.

meatball88: Myself and ccube has ran in this year's edition. To answer your question:
1) 4 pedestrian bridges. More or less the same as the one in KL, but much cleaner and don't have any "chip away" cement. Mixture of stairs and ramps.

2) I guess the bridges refers to the pedestrian bridge.

3) Route is generally flat. However you have to run on a mixture of concrete, sand (Bedok Reservoir) and tarmac throughout the course. Not forgetting the parks around the HDB flats which is winding and tilting to one side. The end is an uphill climb follow by a short hill burst to the finish line via crossing a narrow 1 lane bridge.

thanks phoenixs..you r very helpful.

Another Qs-i heard certain part of the route is dark..how dark is dark?no lights at all!!??

Yeah, it's dark but won't be so dark until you fall into a hole. Just be careful when running through darken areas as shortly, you will be back under the street lights. It's Singapore! I suggest you bring along a small water bottle like those mineral water type for the first 10KM, then to be thrown away to avoid congestion at the water stations during the early stages of the race.

I give up Malaoff Run , Heavy Injury . now take a rest for few week or after CNY . good luck guy for tomorrow Malaoff Run !

got that serious har?

Congratz to lexan and vin-ann on a good run at the Malakoff 12KM. Although GPS reading shows only 11.1KM, I believe it's the furthest you guys ran. And to lexan, great to meet you.

sfax: Take it easy from now on. No harm or shame in skipping races. Get your injury cured first. Not to scare you, but as Wan said, ITB injury isn't an injury to be mess with.

malakoff run was fun!! killer hill climb. haha

Congarats y'all

Get well soon sfax u hurt urself on Sat? i saw u, ccube and phoneix in the bkt aman carpark...

Saturday LSD -training

Distance:
3x 5km + route
Body Feedback:
I only ran an 8km route once before me LSD as I was feeling under the weather for the other 3 training days. I thought it be great to run me LSD as body fully rested BUT that wasn't the case the first two laps were nice but the last lap was insane, i managed to get a better time though when compared to me first run of 3x 5km + lap.

I tried the RM22 nike elite runner socks...nt too bad at all is me conclusion keke
