Intro... and I thought for a while what to put here about me. :) What do you wanna know? I am just a simple guy working in an IT Company handling Operations and Project Management. I'm also going through a torturous 16 months "express" double degree course at Kaplan APMI - Murdoch University. In this blog, you will basically find alot of nonsense from me. I like to complain and yes I complain alot but for things that are not right. If you know me well enough then you will know that I always complain for a reason :D otherwise I am just like any quiet guy next door starring at the laptop screen. This blog details my daily experiences as well as my training for my runs. I have taken an interest in running since last year and I am working towards completing a Marathon this year...

I spent the whole of last week working, getting rushed by some project manager from some big company to do this and that, write minutes, write specs, write this, write that.. omg and wasted alot of my precious time to do those things for her.. sigh. I was also busy with I-Run :P and surfing SGRunners wahahhaha (that's where the other 50% went to..) On Thursday, 10/07/2008 I went for my second Session of I-Run and this time I decided to take the 7km route. Quincy came for a while and left because he has forgotten to bring his running shorts. I had also spent some time to help the I-Run team to take pictures although my skills weren't that great. At the start of the run, all the 7km people were stationed in front and I was told to follow the pack as I wasn't sure of the route. It was ok at first although I know I was going at quite a pretty fast pace.. but I slowly started to slow down a little but try to keep up with my pace but eventually I have lost the group and had to slow down to wait for the people behind me to lead me on before I could catch up again.. or at least run faster again.. by then I was already feeling pretty exhausted but kept pushing and pushing and this time round, I was wearing my Heart Rate Monitor and it showed that I was only using 150 of my max heart rate.. was too far from my Maximum of 190+ but I didn't really let that bother me so much.. I just kept going till i reach the finishing point. 34 Minutes for 7km! My Best Performance so far and I hope I can keep up with it. As for my Garmin, I'm really loving it, especially when I am able to track my pace, distance, speed and heart rate. The map shown on Sports Track is as follows: On Friday, it was party day as my group of friends, colleagues and unknown friends went down to St James Dragonfly for a Friday Night Out. It was fun.. but the music was too loud that I was practically deaf the following day :(. We partied till 4am though :P. On Saturday I had to go School and I was already half dead by then.. and when I was back home, I spent some time to work on Research Assignment 5 before taking a short nap as I had wanted to do a 10km run, but yeah naps are really a good excuse to not exercise. I slept till the very next day! and before I knew it, I was already out and on my way to office to work with my accountant till 11.30pm and so another day has gone and today is Monday as I am writing this entry. I am supposed to meet Valda for a run but she last minute had to postponed it so yeah I'm cool. I was also supposed to go to the dentist with my mum for her to do her gum treatment and tomorrow is my turn to do polishing and scaling. $$$ Tomorrow will be another I-Run and hopefully I can improve on my timing again. Gonna be sleeping real soon after doing abit more work. AHM coming soon and I have yet to hit a 15km. The last was only 12km. Oh man I am really very far from my training! posted by Terence @ 10:48 PM| comments? (0)
