We have done it !

We have done it!
Congrat to Yen Erl , Wai Yee who had completed thier maiden full marathon. Ben had achieved his best timing in Singapore marathon by completing within 3 hr 31 mins, I have completed within 4 hr 29mins.

It is test of endurance in a very sunny but windy day, but all of us have done it by completing the 42.195km distance... a distance where they say we need to run from KL to Seremban :)

I break my own record by going to toilet 6 times during the race and drinking water every 1.5km after 20k mark in ECP. I was not thirsty but I think i need that little break to rest. However, I wish I don't keep this habit as the race in Malaysia will not have so many water station and toilets.

I think is time to move on and target for a better timing as I have stayed in the completion time of 4 hrs 30mins for all my 3 full marathon. Let start training and aim for a sub 4 race next time... eheh...


Specially Thanks to Chan for taking this picture for me .

Are you ready??

Is Friday again and I m going to have my 3rd Full Marathon in 8 days time. Excited ? Nervous? ..hmm... is more like excited coz 42k is a too long distance for you to feel nervous :P

I have 2 enjoyable run this week,
Tuesday - CBD run with Pacer. I am following DO and Dream running in 4hr pace. The pace is comfortable for 10k run, but not sure it is still comfortable if persist for 42k .
Thursday - Normal running lab run where we run Explanade this week. The crowd is lesser this week and predict it will be lesser next week due to the race on Sunday.

Attended the hot yoga flow on Wednesday as well, this time the yoga class is not that hot, tiring and unbearable like last time and I can follow most of the pose :) Will need to go more often to get myself stronger.

FRIDAY --- 2 more hours to off work! I m going to collect race bib with Ben later, and will have a 16k run on ECP tomorrow. And hopefully will have an enjoyable shopping on the rest of the day:)

I will also need to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my dearest Sister, TZE! Hope her dreamsssss will come true soon!!

Bought 2 shoes in a day

Finally waited for Ben to be free to and go for Shoes shopping with me. We went to running lab and bought a pair of Mizuno Inpires... :)

Coincidently there is a 30% discount on Adidas product for SG runners in Cathay Cineleisure yesterday and I have been eyeing on a Adidas running vest .... Hence,we decided to go there to take a look.

I first trying on different shoes like Adizero tempo, Supernova but they don't have my size. Just when I thought I will go home with just the running vest..hhehe.. Ben saw this Adizero Breeze in the classic color (black and white) which is my favourite. Wihout hesitate more than 5 mins.. I try on the shoes and bought it.

Now.. I have 4 shoes in total.. one Mizuno that already with me for 3 yrs and is time to retire. A green ASIC DS trainer, a blue Mizuno Inspire and a black and white Adidas Adizero Breeze :)

Hello Again

It has been a while since I last updated my blog. There is too many things happen this few month that I can't recall all of them . But that is some major change in my life, that is I am moved from KL to Singapore. I started my new job and is already 3 months old ..Huyeah!!.

As for running, I went for Ediken run in Putra Jaya, Genting Trailblazer last week , hiking in Pine Hill, Bkt Datuk:) Compare with last year, I think I had cut down a lot of races as it is not as convenient now to go for the race...:( But I m still enjoying very much in going back to Malaysia to join all the races :)

I have been busy with wedding planning recently and had created our wedding website. http://www.mywedding.com/benwedyeehua/

I will say the progress for wedding planning is quite ok for now as I have my sister in KL taking care of all the details in KL and Ben who is taking care of the planning in Singapore :) Sound like I am not doing anything ... hhee.. I think when we approach "THE DAY" , we will have clearer idea on the progress.

Will stop for now and will come back later on some update on Genting Trailblazer.
