5 Days to D-Day --- Taper Run to Labrador Park
Quite a number of regulars were absent today.. hahaha think most have taper off for the wk.. for the big race ;) as we gathered at the lobby, a new member, Pek Chong came up to us... he had just signed up.. and will be joining us for the 1st time :) we start off slightly later at ard 6.55pm... the route is Depot Rd- Labrador Park- Henderson.. abt 8.5km... so will be back to club by 8pm....
I start off in my warm up pace.. slow and easy.... hahaha Adam asked if I wanted him to pace me... Yean keep pace with Pek Chong and they crossed the traffic with the frontiers.... Adam, CM and me was struck halfway thru the junction... by the time we ran in to Labrador.. we saw they were abt 200m ahead of us... once we were in Labrador, Adam had crossed his warm up distance--5km.. and he started to increase his pace.. i followed suit.. and tried to run light.. head str.. and breathing smooth... by the exit of the park.. Yean and Pek Chong was about 100m ahead.. Cm targeted tt we can catch up by the traffic junction... and we did :D
Along Telok Blangah rd, Adam cont'd his pace.. and i followed close behind.. halfway along Henderson rd, Adam crossed the road.. thinking there was no vehicles.. i made a quick turn and tried to cross too... woaah.. a car came by at a high speed.. and luckily i managed to jump up the pavement in time.. waah heng arh.. thw 1st thing i recalled was the sms i received from Anton before the run.. tt a female runner was knocked down earlier at Sixth Avenue... I just cont'd on all the way to the foot of TB hill.. and crossed the road safely to club..
Distance covered: 8.5km __ Timing: 50:01:39
