Weekend of soreness

What a weekend!

Owing to my laziness last week, i skipped bootcamp last last saturday and had to make up for it last saturday and you know what - WORSE. DECISION. EVER !!!

It's an established fact that last session of the month is always the toughest, and even though there were only 3 girls that day, NO MERCY!!!

AND it doesn't help that I signed up for the Vibram Training camp, it wasn't harsh at all but the two together killed me, I was walking in a very awkward way that even Tai Hau doesn't wanna be seen with me...lol


  

  

And no surprise, sunday was excruciating!!!! I had to run when i don't even wanna walk! 

But i finished the 10K anyway, my hope for finishing it within 60 mins was destroyed by my shakey legs...oh well there's always another 10K. 

  

But having ran a really tough 10K yesterday, it gets me thinking...how the hell am I gonna get through 21K....?! I guess we'll see on the 25th Nov!

I am not sure what i'm busy with these days, all i know is that I haven't seen my T4 for i think almost over a month now. >.<

I blame that on my new passion for running because before i started running, those are my bodycombat time but these days, i can barely squeeze in one BC a week :(  - no like, no like! - but I have to be honest the more I run, the more i want to run. 

Frankly speaking - i'm no athlete - i run slow (average at 6:05 per km), but it is the trying to be better that drives me to be a better me. When i started to run regularly, i had to stop and walk soon after 1 or 1.5k just so i can catch my breath, but last wednesday at HR, i was able to run the whole 8.5K without stopping! And that's exactly what makes me going back for more!

Though it may sounds like betraying BC for running, but i won't stop BC, i may have left for a while but i'll definitely be back. In my utopia, i would have 36 hour that i can fit all the activities i wanna do in just one day!!!! how awesome would that be eh? lol

Though i haven't seen T4 but i have been kept update about Sandee's knee. I absolutely understand her utter frustration. The feeling of helplessness of not being able to exercise (or run) because of a physical condition. She must have felt like she's in hell now :( or worse! Fingers crossed that physio will soon take effect and that she can at least jog to ease the pain!

On a separate note - I have a strange feeling that ... i'm a bit lost these days. Like i said, it's a strange feeling, i can't even quite put what is wrong, but something is not right. I don't feel like i'm well rested, I haven't been able to see any of my friends, work ihas taken over everyday of life, can't even recall what i did during the weekends...what the F is happening?!

Am going away on holiday next week, i should be feeling all excited but all i can think about is how tiring it's going to be!! :( Being tired and busy is good when you know you're going somewhere, but i'm not so sure i know where this would all lead to. Life is too short to make things complicated - deep breath & take it easy...!!!!

Pervert

I'm not sure about you, but everytime when i'm looking at fitness website stuff, i felt like i'm looking at soft porn lol

Look at these *motivational* images!

This one emphasis the importance of Perfect Posture lol

This one was about Pilates (no clue how it came about?!)

Perfect Abs

Healthy & Sexy (which is probably true)

That's just soft porn

Dusty

Time really flies!!! Who stole them from me?!! It's been a month since the last entry and Sandy finds my blog very dusty now...

Nothing really special these days - just really busy with work and trying to stuff as much workout sessions during the week as possible.

Sep/Oct/Nov is racing season again! 

Signed up for a lot of 10K runs and I've registered for my VERY first 21K UNICEF!! 

Now here is my training plan for 10K - goal is to run faster and not stopping as often as I would during *leisure* running during the week...lol



Here is the 21K training schedule, apparently i don't have 10 weeks before Unicef but what the hack...there's always 1st time for everything. Just need to be careful with the knees!


Fung from HR said if I want to do a reasonable time, i'll probably need to add one more day of running during the week until the race day to get the miles up.It means either I'll have to cut bootcamp sessions or I'll have to suck it up and work hardeeeerrrr!
