Shakira's new video ROCKS! I love her

I arrived at track late again yesterday due to the awful traffic.  It has been pretty bad this week.  When I arrived at 650pm, I had difficulty finding a parking spot.  Luckily I managed to get one after waiting about 3 minutes.  3 minutes may seem like a short time, but when you’re already late for track, it seems like an eternity especially when you see your fellow runners already there.

 

Coach wasn’t around.  Presumably then, Ah Wah, or Ronnie would know what the menu is.  On the track, Ronnie, Kenny, Ah Seah zipped by, saying that they just started one lap out of a planned 3000 meters.  I laced up and started on my own.  By then they had completed their 2^nd lap.  No matter, I thought, I’ll just complete the 7.5 laps on my own. 

 

And so it proceeded.  When everyone else had completed the 3000 meters, I ran another 2 laps to complete my 3000 meters.  Forgot to time myself. 

 

With less rest than everyone else, Ah Wah announced the next workout- 2000m.  Time- 7:50 (3:55 per km pace).

 

Next- 1000m.  Time- 3:34.

 

Then, 5 x 400m- I was in the first group with a set time of 2:00.  Time: 1:29, 1:28, 1:29, 1:27, 1:18.

 

The night was not over.  I had an appointment with my friends, former colleagues in profession, i.e. lawyers. The night ended at 11.30pm, and I arrived home at 12:00am.  Had my shower and crashed on the bed about 12:15am. 

 

Friday- woke up at 6:00am. 

 

Now you can see why I’m so tired. 

 

At least I’m still awake at this point.  But, the fact that I had Nasi Briyani at CitiSquare with Ronnie, Newton and Kenneth isn’t helping me stay awake.  The 2 cups of coffee I had thus far is taking care of that.

 

Tomorrow being the PAR means I have another early day.  I can’t run today (something came up, but what a nice weather to run), which means I’ll be running the volunteers run at 6:00am. 

 

Those who are turning up for tomorrow’s PAR, see you there!
