20.3km run on 6 Oct 2017

Started today's run at 6.48 am, at the beginning it was slow as I was trying to get the legs warm up. 1st 3km averaging around 6.35 per km, I tried to maintain a slow and steady pace as my target is to cover at least 20km. I was actually running faster till about 13km because I was running through a park, but as I exited the park, the heat from the sun was getting to me. Slowed down to 6.20 plus per km and eventually had to stop to go for a water break of 4min. Covered 17.54km in 1hr51min.

When I resumed, I had no strength to maintain my previous form. I struggled through the last 2.76km home.  Covered the first km in 9min, the next km in 8min23sec and the last 0.76km in 5min34sec. I told myself no matter how slow I run, I must run all the way back home.

I think my mind keep telling me to stop and rest, the reason why I had the water break.

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!
