Wish me luck! I'm running the 21km Army Half Marathon tmr. I have not touched a single ciggie since Monday and I hope that I'll feel better when I hit the roads tmr. It's been so tough not thinking abt smoking. It's so much easier to control food than cig!

Will be wearing my ankle guard as it still hurts a little every now and then. Otherwise, I'm good to go. So excited!! There's no quitting. Just do it! xoxo

How was the run?

HEY! It was great. I felt like dying towards the end because I only had one serving of whey protein before running. I didn't carb load the day before either. VERY bad choice, But I've learnt my lesson and will eat properly for the run.. I actually puked in my mouth when i made the dash for the last 500m.. Almost fainted due to the heat as well. There were 7000 over pple that day running. I think it was most mentally challenging when I was at 18km.. there was 3 more km to go and I felt like it was FOREVER! my timing wasn't good though. I completed the 21km in 2 hrs 24min.. I was hoping to do it within 2hr10min so less. Oh well, I definitely need to train harder for the next one which is coming up in dec. :) thanks for asking anyway. You're the expert in running! :) so do you have any tips for me on training? ;)

Well, is it cooler in Dec? You do live on the other side of the world. If so, that wil definitely help. I think if you would have carb load that would have helped you tremendously. I think you were right about the food intake. You already run alot, so keep that up. Try running that 21km every 2-3 weeks. Incorporate alot of stretching into your exercises. Also start adding sprint runs in your routines, like 2 or 5K.
