It was training day number two for me yesterday and as the plan advised me, I had to do another 8k at 5:45 pace. I planned to do the same route again because I didn’t have a chance to map out a new one. I warmed up. I did a little stretching. Before I knew it, I was at it again trying to run 8 kilometers at a 5:45 pace. As much as I wanted to run the exact same route, traffic conditions yesterday and the fact that I needed to run at a constant pace, made me veer away. I wasn’t actually sure I was going to be able to run 8 kilometers but I just kept on running.

It turns out that I only ran 6.76 kilometers. Over a kilometer short of my desired distance. As I reached the end of my run and as I glanced on my stopwatch, I knew I was off my planned distance. It was either I became absolutely fast or I ran a shorter distance because my clock only read 36 minutes. It was still a good run though because I was able to run at a pace of below 5:30 per kilometer. It was short but it was still a good run.

BTW, Unilab photovendo photos are up! Here’s me looking like an epic epileptic balding cancer patient.

If you’re not there, maybe I took a photo of you!
