Training Updates

Haven't been running for the past 3 days. So tomorrow, I will have to run. This sunday, probably will run up Genting Highlands again with Raymond Hee and Stupe. Just some afterthoughts after running 63km.

So far, my legs were ok...not so much pain at the knees. But considerable pain on the feet, only during running. I could sense my legs are getting used to the pounding of longer distances. As for fatigue, I believe I could push it further...but I noticed I get a bit hungry after each 10km. Which is the reason why I brought along 2 bananas in my pouch bag.

Although 63km is the furthest I have pushed, I intend to run further than that. I am dreaming to run 260km from KL to Kuantan in one stretch, which is my hometown, in the near future. But that'll take enormous amount of training and hardship. Not to mention pain. Really I have no idea if it's possible yet. But with more longer distances of running, I really hope I could do it one day.

Now, it's a bit crazy to run that distances. But there's even crazier people out there who runs further. Dean Karnazes is one of the guy...who probably inspired me to run further than marathon distances. You could read about him on his latest run of 580km stretch from the summit of Mt Kosciusko to Sydney. He's known as the ultramarathon man. He has ran 300 miles in one run continuously. That's miles...not kilometres.

As for swimming, I just set a PR for 2km swim today of 00:45:50. I intend to push it to 40 minutes at least.
