Run & sinful dinner
Headed out for a run today with Hubba after work. I think I'm starting to get into the running mood... been quite consistent over the last 3 weeks. Might be due to Hubba having to prepare for his IPPT, so in a way we are motivating each other. Find it helps to destress also... which is pretty good since work has been stressful lately.
Did myself proud today, coz I finally managed to complete 6 rounds around the track continuously, without stopping. A feat for someone who has not been running regularly since JC/Uni days. Further more, I actually ran on the outer lanes, at quite a consistent pace, so I'm quite happy with my achievement. Next up will be to improve and go beyond. :) Especially my breathing... I don't quite have a good breathing technique when running.
Total distance: 5.7km (First walked 2+km to the stadium, then ran the rest of the distance, except last 300m was a cool down walk)
Total time: 48'48" (Nice number, can go buy 4D)
Pace: 8'33"/km (Averaged around 6'31"/km during the run)
Calories: 352
After the very good exercise, Hubba thought of pigging out at a nearby coffee shop that served one of the best zi char in Tampines. There he ordered XO Fish Soup with bee hoon, while I had Sam Low Hor Fun. And between the two of us, we shared a plate of prawn paste chicken wings!!! Ultimate sin! All these was washed down by a sinful pack of Ribena for me, and a glass of Bandung for him.
There goes all the work out... :( I think we might have to schedule another run on Saturday/Sunday to make up for this sinful meal.
