The joys of running...


I have started the running club and boy was I in for a shock! For those who I have not been babbling about my new found love of running.. I was able to run a 10K charity run last year on 31st August 2008 in 1 hour and 4 minutes!

Now lari 2 minute cam nak mati.

So determine to meet my goal of a half marathon (21.2K) by mid year, I entered a running club

Had three sessions with consist of 2 x 1 hour running session and 1 x ½ hour 1 to one 1 session with the trainer.

From my once a week, weak attempt to run to torture week. So far the trainer made us:


  • Run 2 laps of the Caulfield park which is 2.182 K one round. Manage to push myself to a mere 30 minutes for the time trial.

  • Do a squizillion lunges and made my things so sore

  • Did Abs work- the right way. So I’m feeling it till today

  • Did intervals running, 5 minutes run and 3 minutes walk. Did that 5 times.
This morning, I literally could not get up. LITERALLY. I had to shuffle my whole body to the edge of the bed in order to get up. Groaaan

Next session this Saturday at 9:30am, I wanna cry….

At the same time I am psych because I know on my own I wouldn’t put this much effort. And having someone teaching you the correct technique as well as having fun in a group.

Tomorrow’s V Day. What on everyone’s agenda? Giving it the miss? V day for losers? SO have it all planned out, the works: Dinner, Movie, Flowers, Choccy, Gifts, then something something hahaha
