The running is still on. Saturday I plugged in 6.5 miles in 31 degrees with the sun shining fully overhead. This was done at 4pm. I took Sunday off - ate too many Jalebis (*sigh*) among other things. This made for a sluggish start this morning, but provided plenty of fuel for me to power through my workout this morning, plus some more. All is right with the world when I can spend a few hours sweating in the morning :-)
I measured my stair workout this am. I did to increase my stride length while running - If I climb stairs skipping, 3-4 stairs at a time, I find it helps, especially since Singapore is flat as a pancake. Anyway, I ended up doing a 1000 repeats in 100 minutes.
4.1 miles slow run - took me 35 minutes.
3.75 miles in the pool. 80 laps - water freezing and took me exactly 58 minutes. I am SO glad I can swim. I should admit that it takes alot out of me and I find it much harder than running. However, I try my best - which means, no stopping and if I get tired, I still go on till I reach a number I can live with for the day.
That is all folks. Its a beautiful morning :-)
P.S I am 32 days away from the Safra Bay run - hopefully it wont be as hot and I feel better about this run since it starts in the morning.
