thanks your time bro.

i never did a 20km event before yet i'm going for the 30km distance. hope to complete it within the qualifying time :S

anyone going for the 30k run?

eugene, cinya salute u for your guts and determination. just run slow so as not to tire urself. i am doing 30k too.

eugenefong: While I must say that you are really dumb to take up such a long distance without proper training, I must admit that I salute your bravery in taking up the challenge. I hope you can finish the run in your quickest time possible and also as less suffering possible. A word of advice is that since the route is rather unforgiving, do take things easy. Don't want to injure yourself with CNY around the corner. And as most of us says, 2009 is still young. Plenty of races coming. All the best!

i'm doing 20k this sunday.. not taking my bib number & vest yet.. tomorrow will collect from NB The Garden... Last year timing is about 2H30'..milage recorded from new year to date only 23.80km.. hope can finish it in one piece.. chaiyo..!!

Nice meeting you Lionel

Good luck toto4d and Phoenix go go GE30K!

I finally collected my stuff from phoenix after so long. Thanks bro!

eh Phoenix can send the photo to my email addy? I wanna blog haha thanks!

guyz recomand me best and must do gym workout..

im a middle distance runner,,, 800m and 1500m...

What is your goal? lose weight? build muscle? You can't just come in and expect magic answers.

Your request is too vague ...and there is no BEST gym workout Everything is good when you get the form right.

Yay I survived 20k.

The event was so panas

Good job syd

Training paid off

Congratz and well done to all who ran in the Great Eastern run be it 20KM or 30KM.

hey ccube/phoenix, sorry perhaps i did not clarify myself. i never did a 20k EVENT but i tried a few times running around my house for 20k la.. sorry that gave u a wrong perception.

yeah, the route is unforgiving and UNFORGETTABLE! its crazy, every hill i took i was hoping it to be the last. i'm just glad i did it within the qualifying time. hehe

wow phoenix u really amazing managed to clock sub-3 hours even with ur knee problem!
sad that i can't join the race, went for some tiring activities on saturday, so i knew i cannot be fully fit to run..

well done to all who ran the GE race be it 20k or 30k. the route was tough as i said coupled with the sun rising up so early in the morning. doesnt help much but made it tougher with the heat. but i believed we all survived and finished the race. as for me i came back with an expected timing which i was indeed happy about. pacing myself well was the main thing and also knowing the route before hand helps a lot.
