10K Run (Completed!)

Woke up at 6am in the morning to prepare myself for my first ever 10K run, happy to say that “I’ve made it!”.  It was an interesting experience to have so many people running with you, the atmosphere was filled with tremendous energy. My official time is 64’17”, a personal record, but still way below […]

10K Run (Training) – 6

Don’t want my muscles to be too cold entering the 10K run this Sunday, I pushed myself to do one last training tonight.  Ran ~5K, felt ok, and my “injured” left toe didn’t seem to be too bothering me.  A good warm up run. Still not certain that I can complete the run this Sunday, […]

10K Run (Training) – 5

I was determined to complete a 10K run before the training even started today, and I’m glad to say that I’ve made it!  The average pace matched my lowest record, but I can work on that later, finishing the entire course without resting is all I ask for at this stage. This is definitely a […]

10K Run (Training) – 3

Jogged for ~8km this afternoon, my longest run to date!  Slowly building up my confidence to finish the 10k run next weekend… During the long jog, I started to think of life as a long marathon run – difficult at first, but become smoother as your muscles are warmed up, and the test of perseverance […]

10K Run (Training) – 2

Dragged myself outside for my second training session.  I’m not sure if it’s because of the stuffy weather, the run didn’t seem to be as comfortable this time.  I was almost sure I can train myself to challenge a half-marathon after the first training session, but today, I doubt that I can even finish a […]

10K Run (Training)

Finally started training for my 10k-run today, ran 5 km in a bit over half-an-hour, felt good.  The real run will be on Nov. 20th, I have about 3 weeks to train up myself. I started logging my runs, it will mark my progress for as long as I continue to run.  If my body […]

Soccer

Played 3 hours of soccer on a rainy night.  My big toes are hurting and my bones are aching, but it feels good. One of these days I shall start some regular training and get myself into shape…
