Day 279 : 27th February 2011 Running

On Trainer's (TS) insistence, I finally made my way to Big Splash for a run.
TS has been very accommodating, so I have no reason to refuse.
Haha, truth be told, TS made it such that I do not have a choice.
I have ran out of excuses to reject the training. =D

We started off at a good pace.
We were able to maintain a good chat while running.
Newtons really made a whole world of difference.
It is definitely going with me for all my races...

With great company, the run definitely becomes more enjoyable.
It is tough for TS though, TS has to accommodate to my pace to ensure that I do not slack.

小红楼 is the target.
Met WaiJia, Terence and Spencer along the way.
Really impressed at how WaiJia managed to exercise despite her busy schedule...
Really good to meet her today.

Haha... once we reached 小红楼, I wanted to walk back but TS won't allow me.
Every time I started walking, TS will bring out the whip!

TS made me realized something today.
Every runner has a tempo, you just need to discover it.
I found my tempo and the run become almost effortless.
The legs just find its own rhythm and keep "spinning". Thanks, TS!
With the rhythm, we made it back to Big Splash in a pretty good time.
Washed up, had brekkie at Old Town before proceeding home. =)

Decided to skip the Desaru Ride.
I am not ready.
134km is a daunting distance.
Take a discount, it is still a century ride.
How am I supposed to do a 110km ride when I cannnot even complete a 60km ride feeling completely spent.
I have to be fair to the group.
Will buck up and join you during the next ride, guys!
