SMA

After yesterday run, i am wearily that it is going to be a tough ride this morning.

I woke up as expected. Didn't have the procrastination that i had last weekend. Which is good.

Reached Casaurina at 4:59hr. Don't really expected anyone, since most have one reason or another to skip the session this morning. I am surprised to see KK, Nigel and Matthew arrived earlier. After a short briefing, it is OTOT.

Only manage to cycle with them on the LP winding road, once hit the upper thomson, they have zoomed ahead. After the climb up Seletar reservior, already lost sight of them.

The route is the same as last week. If body don't feel good, will skip the Mandai loop. So i keep it easy and move forward.

Weather was good. Not as cold as last week along Neo Teo though. Body feel pretty good. Only stop on the way back at Kranji Dam to top up the water.

Feel strong at Mandai and have time to spare so continue another loop. Well, the weather turn a bit nasty from the look as did last week along this path. Had another pitt stop at the Zoo. Didn't top up as still have water supply and feeling good, so push on again.

It start to drizzling on the way out of Zoo along Mandai..just like last week. It was downpour when i reach seletar reservoir. Sock get wet...sigh...Reached Casaurina at 8:29am, along the way saw quite a few familiar faces doing MR 30k progressive run.

Meet up with the gang for breakfast. They seems to be there quite earlier than myself. As they seem very "dry". Have a good chat with them on the events etc.

It was abit chilled with light drizzle as we splitted. A good ride back.

I am glad that i nailed this without much struggle. A good gauge of my current fitness level. Shall slowly push up...Let see how i fare at the end of the year.

Slowing Moving Along.
