Hilly Run - LSD
It seems like a long time since i last woke up at 4am. I guess it is time to wake up from the "honeymoon".
Reach the meeting point at 5:08am. Slowly one by one arrived. We started off 5:40am. 8(Tao, Buay, BaJie, CCF, Baby, Babyboy, Seo, Xiaozhu) + 1(Tiam Jia - joined later) headed towards Science Park.
The target is to get use to the slope to prepare for GE next week. It was a challenging run with slopes(ok it is speed hump) plenty. We head towards NUS enjoying the morning rolling, twist and turn up Kent Ridge(according to ccf, it is indeed 9 twists). Someone don't want discount(2km) and everyone skip vigilente. Haha...i think he was burnt later. :p
Did a loop on Kent Ridge before heading over to Labrador Park. By then, some of us have felt the effort of the 2 hills. Have to dig deep going up Labrador. Shiok!
We split after that, while the rest headed back via Alexander road, whereas Bajie, CCF, Seo and Xiaozhu headed over to MF to complete the 4th hills. Have to dig into all my reserve to go non-stop from Morse road to the top. Manage to do it, slow but surely making it to the top. :p
After conquering the last hill, it is rolling back to the end. Have to do quite a few pit stops to wait for Seo, which was burnt after Labrador. It is a bit over stretch for him. It will be good for him in the future.
Finally reach the end in 4:02hr. Phew! A 29km this morning based on Bajie new toy(Garmin 305).
A good prelude for what is to come next Sunday. 4 Hills down, 5 hills next? Anyone? :p
Head over to the pool for a 1km swim with Bajie to cool down and give the legs a stretch. Bajie have not been swimming for very long time and manage to do breast stroke in 28mins. If he put in some training time in the water, easily will go under 40mins. Cool.
Breakfast at ABC market(No pictures, don't want to make someone drooling) this morning. :)
