*just a copy of me post frm thread 1 as wud like to hv answers to me queries

Hey all..

jz kinda gt bk frm the early morning run

the run was..1 word -FANTASTIC it was hwever more then 4km+ mentioned..i checked with one of the runners..it seems its 6km+ coz it starts frm the Bkt Aman carpark (nw i knw where it is ) all the way round lake gardens like u go on to the highway a bit then bk into the taman..up the hills n all past the bird park and all...it be 5+ if an exit was made at the planetarium..but of course the group didn't do that..and erm..i dun tink dey are beginners..a no. wearing "PACE SETTERS" t -shirts and all..a couple of hot young chiqs running/ jogging at a real good pace..

i was edi there at before 7.15am..didn't see a whole bunch of runners till abt 7.35 or so..i saw them as dey ran dwn hill into lake gardens so i followed...keke

o btw..i saw u andy..but didn't hv the balls to say hi or wave saw u..ur gf and ur gf's fren i guess..when the 3 of u met up behind the boat hse and u left them..

*lesson learnt today..nvr say women are slow ...well..at least some aren't

**o btw...is 1 lap around da lake realli like 2+ km? i mean a whole round seems a lot longer nt cutting across the bridge..1 whole round..till the play ground??


*wow...i do hope i'll be able to join the running events asap

No balls to run with u guys yet

i'll keep me training with the "newbies" at 7.30

hahha..."spermer"

anyway..wats the diff run early morning? afternoon? evening? or even at nite?

r u sure u guys run slow slow

i norm run in the afternoon and evening..me seldom get the chance to run in the morning except for Sat due to work obligations i use to run at nite..

i find that hving ran in the afternoon n evening for training most of the time..morning runs are made easier...s erm easier to breathe n nt so humid?

harlo all..

went again for the "begginers" run on sat morning..

this time i was at the Bkt Aman carpark before 7.30am..saw a group ppl registering for the Lunar shoes...didn't look like anyone frm last week
waited till 7.30am but no1 runnning but saw a no. of familiar face as i read their blogs..den me decided to walk dwn the road and wait at the entrance of the Lake Gardens..then oni saw a group..all with Lunars though..and again nt anyone i recognised frm last week..

well..decided to join dem anyway..this group ran at a slower pace..had less ppl..and less km..instead of passing the birdpark entrance..did a left turn and then bk to carpark after a series of twisty roads and dwn hill..

o btw congrats all!! i do hope me can join u guys nxt time

i wud like one too but i guess the most important function for me is stopwatch and 1 which can calculate distances..but da thing is most like need a "pod" clipped/attached to ur shoe

--TODAYS REPORT--
hey..din c any of u guys today..mebbe u all were there..but din recognise kua

arrived at 6.50am...warmed up...
todays run was great..the group ran the usual long distance again this time
i liked todays run as i started at the bk and then challenged me self to catch up with the leading pack (1 young uncle, 1 young aunty, 1 old uncle)
LOVE the hills and all..but i do need to train harder..me nw following the technique one of the forumers(metalfreak) mentioned; smaller strides faster pace/ maintain rhythm

i m looking forward to next week's run..

harlo dear sifus
according to me adidas shoe box me US size 9.5

Saturday is 7.30am sharp at the bkt aman carpark (very ez to spot 1 big group of ppl running)
The group normally starts warming up by 7.25 7.30...den walk abit before the jog begins..

Beginner r? slow slow lor..seriously dey dun run fast..its a slow paced jog...but i must inform u..its definitely more den 3k..uphill n dwnhill too
if first time kennot keep up den 2nd time lor...if 2nd kennot den 3rd lor..dun worry la..
if u scared dey too fast..start in the middle of the pack coz if lets say u feel dey realli fast n u get left behind den u wun knw the route used
