i shall pledge to run more! hahahahha went for the nike 10k runtoday with the boy. i confess that i totally didn't train up for it at all. no practice runs, no warm ups, not even any form of physical activity! #slacker
so we got up at an unearthly hour of 5am this morning. prepped my stuff and headed out to fetch the boy. parked the car at bishan and took the train down cus town parking is INSANE! the train was filled with people in the same tee, practically packed the 6am train on the sunday morning! think this only happens when there are runs like this in town.
as expected, the run was quite tough for me! hahaha fitness has totally gone, died and buried. stomach started tightening itself into knots and moving up and down. #cui the poor boy had to slow down to 1/4 of his normal pace to 'run' with me. well, at least we both achieved our goals for the run! me to not puke (flashback to stand chart) and him to get his finisher tee (:
on another note, the race was quite well organized until the end. baggage collection was a pure nightmare! a few thousand people in the A-L queue which took mother long thanks to the inefficiency. something to improve on i guess! might have been the lack of space to situate the collection trucks, but the line was really quite sick.
okay shall go rest my aching shins and prepare for the mother long presentation i have to do this week!
