1st Northen Run

Finally an opportunity to experience Northen Run. Although it is Good Friday & Kuan Yi Dan & Ching Ming, this is not going to stop me from joining the Northen Run. I wasn't in the greatest shape - my hips are aching this morning(worst than yesterday), my left calf are a bit tight. I hope i can finished the run without taking short cut!

Sweetheart send me to Yishun Stadium while she continue her journey back to Yishun home early the morning.

It was a great turnout today, i count around 16 pax. I am not going to put names here, in view that i might left someone out! Bad memory, paiseh.

We start our run at 7:20am! Since some hor, buay paiseh come so late! No need to name who, u know can already!

It was a relax pace, i get to chit chat with some folks along the way when opportunity strikes. It was a refreshing run as i haven't run in Khatib/Yishun/Sembawang often enough and there is many interesting things along the way. Eg the toilet that unlock itself in the middle of the park! The "smell flower" run in the park! The canel runs in Sembawang! The big Ang Moh Chu along King and Canada road. So many smalls thing that went unnoticed but capture on camera!

This run is littered with pit stop that affected the rhythm and the body have to work extra hard to get it going! 15km in 2:40hrs! Is it slow timing for 15km or is it stressful for the legs? My thighs and hips are aching now. I need to use my magic stick later and hopefully it helps. Still have a long run tomorrow!

Meet up with Lao Too and SV near the Hot Spring! We proceed to run/cycle to the Hot Spring. It was a relieve to soak the aching legs in the pail of spring water! It was fun though. I might have lost 1 layer of skin in the process though! Haha....

I didn't proceed for makan with the rest and walk back to Yishun home.

Thanks to James for organising this run. I enjoy the run. Till next time!
