SCSM09 - MR

For the first time since i started running, i finally have the courage to bear the "itch" to forgo running SCSM. I am not a fan of SCSM and if not because it is so convenience to sign up with so many pals around you doing it, i could ditch it long time ago. Finally i did it in 2009!

Being a Singaporean and not doing SCSM! unpatriotic? Well, i rather do something else on a Sunday and get more satisfaction out of it then spent few hours on the road curse and swear on how SCSM is organised and run.

Although i wasn't feeling that good since i reached Singapore around 10pm yesterday, i still reached MR on time. I have a good sleep despite all the driving and other stuffs.

Started the run around 6:56am with Fennel from the carpark. Took us 25mins to reach the opening at SICC. I was abit taken back at my HR which goes slightly high compare to norm at this early part of the run. I think the body is telling me something. :(

We set some objectives along the way and each OTOT. Poor Fennel has to wait for me.

Cutting short the distance is something that keep going through my mind as we ran. Although HR is slightly higher than norm, but i walk quite a bit at selected junctions make it easy for the body to adapt and recover.

Slowly and steady we covered to BT summit, down catchment path, back at RRR. Hit back at ranger station and eventually back at MR carpark.

Distance: 22.79km in 3:26hr. I am glad i make it back didn't feel too beaten. :)

HR went north again when we settled down and during makan time. :(
