haha don't think that its just running at Bedok Reservoir.. haha! anyway here is the route
Running towards Bedok Reservoir is rather smooth, little traffic light. However when comes to returning journey, there are quite a few traffic light along the way, disrupting the running momentum.
Sian~ 2 more days to Race Day, now kanna sore throat and a muscle lump at the calf.. Hope they will recover by tomorrow.

After another long hectic week, finally i got to have a break. However rotting at home with nothing interesting to do. Sick of being killed by the monsters in monster hunter, release of my animes and mangas are not out yet. Decided to go for a run, just nice had been planning a 20k route, however yet to test it. So i decided to run this route without much consideration, which soon regretted not doing so...
Breakdown of run
1-6km: Run to coastal, have to run on the road when crossing over to Coastal. Feeling good, good pace, good weather..
6-12km: Running along coastal. Just a damn long stretch of road. From the start, you can see the Airport control tower till the end.
12-14km: Running along alps ave where all the logistic company located. Still feeling alright. Also my first water point(12km) and last drinking point
14-16km: Hunger and fatigue starts to kick in. Looking at people bbqing their chicken wing along Changi beach really put my temptation of food on test. Another water point(14km) but didn't go for it.
16-22km: Chui liao~ (crushed) Body feeling cold, limbs jellified, stomach growling. Basically i just gave up on running or even maintaining my form. Just run and walk to get myself back. 2 more water points, Esso mobile and Shell petrol stations at 20km and 21km. But just to shag to make the extra effort to run in to drink. Start cursing why i didn't bring money! i want snickers & 100 plus!
Last 200m: Just walk back as my warm down. Leg muscles tight, every step i take will have a cramping effect. Is my power gel still on my shelf? Damn I'm dried up!
Some AARs for this run:
Well for those who had been to Brunei and experience the '7 Knolls', or those who are craving for a hilly, adventurous and challenging run. Here is a new route which i came out this evening.
Brief description of this route. Start from my place, towards Loyang ave, overcoming the hill. Next will be the start of the hill set for cycling, which leads all the way to Simei. Here is the adventurous part, at certain portion, i am required to run along the road leading to the PIE. After that part, will be a straight road back to Simei, clocking a total of 10+km.
If you still think this isn't tough enough, you can also add the 'expo route' which can easily go above 15km...

Was looking for deals on Polar RS200SD HR monitor watch. Came across Sgrunners website. It is packed with information on running events, triathlon and advanture races happening in Singapore. To further explore this website, i registered and read thought some of their posts in forum
Well, stumbled across this website http://www.mapmyrun.com/, find it very interesting especially for people who train often and wanna know how many mileage they have clocked. It works something like Google Earth (In fact it is). But it is able to save your running route and keep them as a log. Below is an example of my run this morning.
