Today's competition was at east coast park in the afternoon.
This race is the 56th SAA road relay championships.Our route is 3km++.
I was the fourth runner and i was pretty nervous to start with.
When may passed me the wristband, i started quite fast but then paced myself a bit to make my stride consistent.There was no one to pace myself with and therefore i just have to gauge and run to catch up with grace as i knew she was in front of me.My timing till the finishing line was 13.01mins.A great improvement from my PB.But Mr. tay added 50secs to mine timing roughly for the turn around.Therefore my timing is roughly 13.51.
We won the third place and i am very happy as the first two teams were very fast.
I hope to be able to run faster next time.

Training
Today's training was at bishan as we're suppose to do time trail for 500m.
We did 500m time trail today according to our groupings for the upcoming competition.
My group consists of adel, hui xin and may.I came in last with a timing of 1mins38.40secs.
After that we did 3.3km run along the cannal from stadium to overhead bridge and back.
My timing was 16mins 57secs.Our run there,me and jedidah, was very slow as Mr.Chan called us to go easy pace but we ran faster on the way back without any pain in leg or whatever.
I felt the run quite enjoyable.I also felt that my legs can run faster without the ankle guard.I hope to run fast on saturday's race.

Training
Today's training was in school.
Teacher split us into two groups and i was in group 1.
We did slower pace as compared to the other group.We did the 3km route plus one round of the park.The big round.After coming out from the park, we were supposed to maintain the speed and let the group 2 people run full out.I think i ate too much during lunch as i could feel a little stitch.As our schedule was lighter,we had to do some jump exercises to better our leg strength.We did frog jumps on the grass patch 3 sets of 10 jumps each.Thereafter, we used the sit-up station to do jumping up and jumping down exercise.We needed to do 10 times of the whole stretch but Mr.chan called me to stop halfway!??!After that, we did on the track the side to side jump we started by doing double-legged and single-legged 50metre 2 times.
I felt that this training was quite effective in training our leg power.

Training
Today's training was in school and not many people attended as they have competition tomorrow.We did the Maris Stella route around 5._km and thereafter we did 6 Times of the slope.The slope up was really very tiring and i had to stop at four.We then proceeded to jog back to school. The run before the slope was quite fun as it was quite windy.Too windy in fact.I felt like flying off.There were no breathing difficulties and i enjoyed the run a lot.After reaching school we did stretching then went home.

Training
Today's training was at east coast park... carpark b1.
It was quite windy but very scorching hot...me and theresa tried out the vacumn thingy but couldn't feel any difference from running normaly.Maybe we're to small in size no not me theresa. Ha...Ha...The run was around 4._km and our pace was quite fast.My timing was 23.35mins.I like the run and hope that we can win on next sat.The ankle guard helped me a little i guess therefore i shall not let my team down and run very fast in the upcoming race.

Training
Today's training was at Mac Ritchie but it wasn't a time trail.
We did the school's cross-country route but we ran two times of it continuous.
We didn't do all out only 70%.My timing was around 19mins++for each round.
It was very muddy while running and my shoes were very muddy.
It was also quite slippery inside.I am chosen to run the under 20 race this saturday.
I know it seems impossible to be the top few runners as considering my age.
The number of slopes ... i lost count but its roughly about 4 up slopes and 3 down slopes.
And also quite a number of corners.I hope to get a good timing on saturday and not caring about the position.I shall beat my previos p.b.

Training
Today's training was at Mac Ritchie under Mr Chan.
We didn't did time trial but instead a 80% run.
Same route as before...the 4.3km route.We started off very slow but as we turned in into the forest, we picked up a little pace.It was very muddy even worse than last last training and slippery too.We were running almost as a group until the main road.We were half-way in the forest when we turned the sharp corner and nearly fell over monkeys! There was like three monkeys in the middle of the road so if debbie was there...Heh heh...
Our timing was very slow compared to the time trail but after that run, we did slope training.
we did the slope to the main road and back...total of 2km.It was very tiring.
My legs are now aching.My ankle very pain leh, should i buy an ankle guard??
Hope i can run very fast on saturday !!
