ECP Training

Did my longest run since knee was injured a month ago. A paltry 18km in like 2:25h. Not sure if to be happy that legs survived (barely) the distance, or upset over the time.

Alber and I joined the FatBird marathon pacer training at ECP this morning. Many familiar faces were there - Anthony, DO, Jancy, Bev, Ros, Ricci, Ultraman, Benny etc. Along the way, many friends called out - Sandy, Helen, Jumi, and others. There was a Terry Fox run going on and many many people crowded the area near F2. The run felt good while it lasted. The first 9km took 63min, fabulous. The return 9km went on forever. Knees felt quirky after the run. *Sulk*

Take heart. Two weeks ago, i also face the same situation to complete 18km for more than 2:30hrs. You have the foundation and with enough rest and recovery, should be able to be pacer for 4:30hrs

showing up is already half the battle won, not to mention you went 18km without any major issue...start with Paced Training, and you should be building up form and conditioning well.

Welcome to the FatBird Marathon Pacer Team :)

Cheers!
