Stairs Climbing

Date: 18 Feb 2010
Time: 2000h
Venue:AMK 14 storeys
Duration:
1) 1'54:77 (5'00:67)
2) 1'48:83 (5'00:75)
3) 1'55:34
Distance: 3x 14

Feeling:
Wanted to do 5 sets initially but my concern is I might not be able to move my legs tomorrow if I strain them too much. Ended up doing 3 sets, using all effort each time round. DD mentioned that I can have 5 min rest time if I give my all for each set I am doing. Turn out that the timing is pretty satisfying, though not as good as the previously 1'39, which is my PB.

Long run

Date: 17 Feb 2010
Time: 1900h
Venue:Woodlands
Duration: 61 min
Distance: Loop via Republic Poly


Feeling:
This is the next PB after clocking 63min running the same route previously. Think the stairs climbing had helped to strengthen the thigh and my legs doesn't feel as tired as they used to be, even when I am running at a much faster pace. The occasional 2.4km run had also helped to make my breathing smoother somehow. I do not feel as breathless as I used to be when running the slight slopes.

Stairs Climbing

Date: 14 Feb 2010
Time: 2000h
Venue:AMK (14 storeys)
Duration:
1) 1'39
2) 2'00
Distance: 2 x 14

Feeling:
Was supposed to run round the block to train for my 2.4km but the body feels lethargic, supposed it's the overeating in the day (it's first day of CNY) that contributed to this feeling.

2.4km trial + stairs climbing

Date: 8th Feb 2010
Time: 1900h
Venue: AMK
Distance: 2 loops (approx 2.4km)
Duration: 13'39:52

Feeling:
Managed to shave off 6 secs from the previous timing but it's still in the bronze range. Need to achieve at least below 13'30 to get silver. Need to strengthen my legs as well as to work on my stamina for running at a faster pace, as I feel out of breath easily.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Distance: 2 x 14 storeys
Duration:
1) 1'51:61 (5'08:97)
2) 2'07:88

Feeling:
Managed to shave off 7 secs from the previous timing but the timing for the 2nd set sucks. Need to strengthen my legs as I felt really weak during the 2nd set.

Long run

Time: 1930h

Long run

Date: 09 Jan 2010
Time: 2000h
Duration: 75min
Venue: Woodlands to Liquid Cafe

So far this is my PB. The body felt good and strong yesterday and managed to complete the run and met the basic target set. Upon reaching the 75min, the right sole felt pain, wonder if it could be due to my incorrect landing which causes too much stress on the soles.

Long run

Date: 03 Jan 2010
Time: 1845h
Venue: Woodlands (Loop)
Duration: (65 +3 )68min
Distance: approx 9+ km

Feeling:
I started out real slow with completing the entire journey as the only objective. I only started to pick up speed when we approached RP. The timing I clocked (65 min) is the same when I compared to the time when I run the same route for the first time.
