This could be my last 10km before the Sundown Ultra. I can't believe it's happening in 4 days' time. 100km. Road, tarmac. Eeeeks. I must have been unconscious or deluded when I signed up last year.
I was late tonight, as usual. Ran by myself around the 10km MF loop. Managed to catch the guys in time for dinner.
Tired.
Life in the fast (& not so fast) lane. This is a blog about my adventures and passions - climbing, running, triathlons, ultra-endurance races & training. I call them my little escapades.

Backlog of Runs
Oh my! It has been more than a week since my last blog posts. The schedule has been crazy, I barely had time to run and certainly no bandwidth to blog about them either. :(
I think I ran pretty much the same route each time.
Last Tues - Labrador Park loops x 7, each about 9min
Wed and Thurs - Telok Blangah - Henderson 5.3km loop x 2
Sat - 1h loop around estate
Sun - 1:18h loop around estate
Shudders at the thought of looming 100km when 10km was a struggle. :(

Canterbury Loops
Didn't join the Safra route today as I was late. Ran with Alber into Canterbury and we did 3 loops at conversational pace. Average 20min per loop of 3ish-km each. Total run time: 1:35h. Enough to earn my dinner.
Looking forward to the weekend trip with my IM kakis. Finally, an endurance trip of a different sort. No power gels, no bikes, no runners. Just pure city decadence!

Telok Blangah Loop
Legs felt like lead today. Attempted a 10km route - two loops around T.Blangah Heights. Plodded along, about 33min per loop. 10km felt like 50km. Groan.

Running round the MF 山
Loop and loop, revisited MF again.
6x MF loops. On average 10:++ min per loop.
Nice & chill. :)

Back to Swim
Back to swim class. Every time I resume swim after a short break, I get giddy from the head turning and laps. Tonight was no different. After a couple of sets, I was 'floaty'.
8x 200m
break
10 x 100m
Done.

Thurs - spent 2.5h on the bus trying to get home, missed swim & did a 1:20h run around the estate

Sun - it rained so heavily that many parts of Singapore were flooded. Managed to squeeze in an 1h run
