Recent Few Runs

Completed my 3rd half marathon on 14 July 2012, Marina 21K, in 2 hr 00min 28.2sec. It was a night race, it started at 7.30 pm, the race started at Punggol, the run passed through the new punggol water front park, part of the race was over gravel path and was wet from the earlier shower. A large part of the race was run through the park connector between seng kang and punggol and ended at the start point. I have improved on my timing due to long run of at least 20km every weekend since mid Jun. On Saturday, 4 Aug 2012, completed the usual 20km run at East Coast Park in 1hr 55min 11sec, it is my best run at east coast since Jun. Felt good during the run, I just try to maintain the pace at a constant 6min per km and accelerated only during the last 3 km. Also started to do some push-up and leg lift to improve core muscle 2 weeks ago. Can feel some improvement of the core muscle and do not feel so sore after long run. I can feel my mental strength improve as well, do not give up so easil
