Life

I really apprecipate my PESS classmates for lending me their listening ears and helping me spend time off. Thank goodness things got better,if not I really will be at a loss as to what to do next.

On a side note, I've set my mind on training to get back my speed. I agreed to help my friend run for a 4x100m and I think that will force me to get my ass down to train. If only I knew someone there.

Limp

I feel so uncomfortable with the limping the whole day.Goodness.

Should have taken it slower.

Went for Army Half this morning,and for half the journey it was pure torture. Pls dun ever not train and go for these events. I ended up walking for a good part as well cos I was also so fed up with people brushing and shoving from behind.The only consolation was that according to my timing,I finished within 3 hrs. But then I ended up having a very bad pull at the outside side of my left foot,and it gets so painful that I have to limp.What the heck. I wonder why I torture myself sometimes.

Filled.

My next 3 days are filled, and I'm pretty excited about it,though I was hoping I can have 1 full day of rest.Tmr will determine whether I have to spent another 300+ bucks on driving or not,Sat will determine what I can wear for photo shoot and etc etc,and Sunday will determine whether I will survive 21km of running without much training. I start to worry about my work suddenly.

On a side note,watching althetics is like having me addicted to the TV.It made me recall my secondary track days and the monstrous training we had and I wonder what it would be like to do that again. The thought makes me shudder.

Things are only as bad as u percieve it to be

Maybe its my moods, cos now its not as bad as it seems. Boy do I want to get through the preparations quickly.

My driving is stranded cos I always seem to be too tired from school,not to mention my runs too. There seems to be mountains of things to be done and my focus is really just to get practicuum over with and then get into restart mode. On a brighter note, its going to week 3!Hurray!

So easy to lose it

I almost lost my disclipine today by postponing my run. Thought of doing it in the morning but decided I was too tired (at 6.30am) and went back to sleep. Decided to do it in the evening but fell asleep too. In the end went at 8+ and there was lighting and thunder. But in the end I'm glad I did it.

Thats one day gone.

Rebonding's always a painful process,with the tugging of my curly and stubborn hair. But the effect afterwards is always worth it,though it would be even better if it lasts more than 6 months each time it's done. Oh and it felt damn good when I saw my hair chopped off. Its seriously irritating me these days.

And after that went all the way down to Novena just to collect the kit for Saucony Passion Run. There was suddenly a sense of insecurity+fear when I read the word Competitive on the bib. Die. My stamina has dipped ever since Fun touch and its just a week away. I seriously hope I can finish in an hour. I need divine help.

I think it's time.

Made arrangements to get to TP for the game against SRC Barras,only to have it cancelled last minute.Bryan couldn't find a referee so we have to cancel it and play 2 games on Sat.What the..?! This is seriously getting from bad to worse each year,and I really can't see myself playing in this type of tournies for the next few years.Plus getting to Turf city is always a chore.

And here I am watching the Uber Cup semis with China pitted against Korea in the women's doubles.It's always nice to see a closely matched game cos character,determination and will becomes all the more apparent.And with all my plans for tonight gone,I'll just take this chance to go for a lesiure run. I'm not excatly sure where my stamina is ever since the camp ruined my whole training momentuem.

I'm moving round the house like an old lady...

My abdominals, lower back,forearms and calfs are aching like crazy. Plus kanna kneed by Sheena right smack in the middle of my calf, effectively making it worse than the rest of my stated body aches.Sigh. Maybe I really should stop and start doing endurance sports already.

(And i felt a sense of accomplishment when I finished the 4k before training started.Of cos it aided me in 'dying' earlier during training.Karen took us and oh boy it was like the good old days.)

Oh morning sun.

I ran 4km at the Jurong West Stadium this morning. And I offically 'died' at the 4th round but somehow managed to finish the 10 rounds. My legs are aching slightly and I'm wondering if I had crossed my anaerobic threshold already. Goodness its only 4k. 6k more to go lei.
Not all's bad though,I didnt feel the strain in my knee and hamstring,but I have a feeling those will make a comeback at around 5k. Die.I need endurance training.
