today training was at bishan stadium.It was raining quite heavy.we did staircase running(3X7mins).The going up part was fine but the walking down was scary.i had to slow down as the steps are quite slippery.After that we did hops brfore cooling down.

Today training is at school again.We did hurdles work.5sets of walking over hurdles each leg.We did the two leg jump also.We started off using 15cm and slowly increase to the maximum of 24cm.I was very scared of the hurdles as i was afraid of falling.We proceed to do 80m runs,learning how to cut corners(using lane 2 and 7).

Today's training was at bishan stadium again.We did three sets of 1km(2.5rounds the stadium). My timing for the first two is 4'07mins and 4'28smins. The timings are different by 21s which i thought was very inconsistant.ithe last was done as a group.It was very squeezy.i was on the last part when i started feeling giddy again and i vomited out everyting.Doctor said it was noting to worry about because i stopped for training for two weeks,due to flu, and when i was back at training i was going at full power and might take time to recover(oh gosh.how much time do i have left before the season starts?!).Sounds like stiches?I certainly hope it will go off fast.FAST!!!

Today's training was at mac ritchie reservoir. I did the 3km run with the sprinters instead of the 4.3km run because the same old problem occured.The timing was 18 minutes plus. It was suppose to be faster because i waited for the sprinters as i was not very sure of the route. The trails was very slippery and filled with lots of stones and branches.Hope to be able to run with the long distance the next training at mac ritchie!!

Training was at bishan stadium as usual.We did 4sets of 600m.The same old problem occured halfway but i manage to complete the 4sets.We are to run the four sets at moderated speed so that we could improve our running technique. After that we went for a run outside,along the canal,till we reached the over head bridge.The weather was very cold when we were running. I wanted to give up at many point in time but i kept in mind what is my goals and what i hope to achieve next year.Hope i will return to the normal me before the season starts.
