23.11km Run on 10 Nov 2017

I managed a 23.11km run in 2hr31min25sec yesterday’s morning. It was quite a struggle at the initial part of the run, the body was trying hard to warm up and the legs were heavy. It got better as I got to around 5 km or so, heaviness in the legs were gone as I enter the park connector at buangkok green. I consumed a pack of gel around 7 km and toilet break around 8km and the run become enjoyable as I trotted along the water way around Punggol water point. Had another water break around the 11 plus km, to ensure I can continue smoothly.

I continued to run well on the way back out and took another water break around the 14.5km and a second pack of gel. I told myself that I need to overcome the heat from the sun usually around the last 4km back to my home. I just run at a steady pace and reached this last part of the run. I managed to cover this portion without any issue and finished the run strong.

On hind sight, I could have push myself a bit harder to finish a 2-3 minuted faster. But, overall a good run, I get a better feel of my current fitness level and where I can push myself more and plan for the SCB marathon on 3 Dec 2017.

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!
