19.65km run on 22 Sep 2013 Sunday

Started at 6.14 am from Ford Road carpark, started slow 6m18s 1st km, 6m12s 2nd km, try to run easy as this the 1st ECP run in 7 weeks. Covered the 3rd km in 6m5s, going under
6m by 4km, 5m57s. Seems to being going fine, clocking 5m49.9sec for the 5th km. The 6km was even faster at 5m45.2s, slowing down a little 5m50.1s for the 7th km. The 8th km was covered in 5m42s, 5m36.3s for the 9th km and 10 km in 6m6.3s including a 20s water break. 11km was covered in 5m33.8s, 5m31.8 for the 12th km. The 13th km was clocked in at 5m24.7s, followed by 5m22.5s and 5m14.3s for the 14th and 15th  respectively. I could not maintain the pace and slow to 5m41s for the 16km. The heat was unbearable and I had to take a water break and cooled myself down by wetting my head with water and the pace slowed to 7m3.8s. I slowly tried increasing my pace and managed 6m10.6s for the 18th km and 5m46.9s for the 19th km. Finally finished the 19.65km run in 1hr54m23s, it was a good run given my lack of mileage in Aug and Sep 2013.

Relax ! Humans are not going anywhere far !!

Yes, with their current state of technology, humans are not going anywhere far and still survive to see the future. Anyone with technology surpassing humans would wonder why all the travelling and fighting and killing each other?? The earth is like a huge fishing tank view from space, so what is going on humans?? Human nature of greed and power will kill itself! Human nature is probably hard to change .....!!!!

SpaceX Starship first touchdown

SpaceX Starship 3rd ITF is likely in later part of March 2024, looking forward to the first successful touchdown of the both booster and Starship !  Controlling the engine sufficiently would be critical to achieving the landing either on land or at sea based platform.  Looking to see the first payload by the 5 or 6th launch. If the 3rd test can see the Starship coming back for a controlled landing, then progress should be fast. Should see at least 4 to 5 Starship flights or test in 2024.

Human need to move away from combustion engine

With the current technology, it’s difficult for human to think about moving away from combustion engine. It’s the only way they can think of that will generate sustainable energy to travel over distances! Generating sustainable energy without burning too much fuel is always the issue with transportation over significant distances! Or perhaps the fuel source is the issue with human travel!
