Another 24km/week for Week33

picture taken in 2010 before pbim'10

yeay! last week achieved another 24km/week of training.. that makes it two weeks in a row of 24km/week.. will try to achieve the same distance again for week34 before going into week35.. it is most likely i would not be able to do 24km/week for week35 since its raya week..

my average training distance per week is currently at 8.2km/week compared to last year 8.5km/week for the same period.. my total training distance for 2011 is at 270km..

from this week onwards until end year will be doing another 280km to atleast achieve the same training distance as last year, 2010.. hope to continue this not so easy feat..

Yet Another 10k PB!! Yahoo!

picture taken in 2010 before pbim'10

was on my weekly runs yesterday.. was on my 7k lap when i decided to go for an easy 10k.. could have ran faster but i didnt want to exert to much energy since i was fasting.. anything can go wrong if your last fluid intake was 10hrs earlier.. so you can say it was an easy 10k even though not that easy laa.. finally downloaded my training data from my polar watch into the laptop today.. wow, i better my previous PB in 10k by almost 4mins!! now lets maintain training and see the results in PBIM'11!!

Yeay! Something to Celebrate

somewhere near kuantan

finally i have achieved 24k/week on week32 this year.. now its up to me to keep up the training and be consistent in my training plans.. the combination for a 24k/week trainings can be as follows:
1. 10 + 10 + 4 = 24k
2. 9 + 8 + 7 = 24k
3. 8 + 8 + 8 = 24k

summary of thing before i forget:
1. changed my pair of trainers (running shoe) to ON CloudSurfer on week32
2. my Supernova Glide2 has clocked 447.7k
3. register for malakoff 12k run

Weekly Mileage Goal in Sight

right after scmkl'11 with fadzli..

it has been a hard training during this ramadhan/ fasting month.. my first training was a 9k before doing an 8k.. now, im short of 7k short of my weekly goal 24k/week.. hope fully today i will be able to do an 8k before iftar..

focusing on an aim weekly sets the mood right during my training.. gives me a sense of direction to dig deep.. even though i have yet to really dig deep during trainings.. when im out of focus during training, i think the following:-

1. i want to do better for pbim'11
2. i want to see results of better hm timing
3. the faster i reach my weekly goal, the faster i can improve as a runner

Training & Fasting

ain't easy running with an empty stomach..

This is my second year of training during Ramadhan/ Fasting month.. last year i ended up zilch.. no training what so ever.. now this year, i have put some training.. not much though but enough to get myself going.. i will continue training and hopefully get at least 24k/week set.. i have been frequently changing my weekly training target :-P hope fully this target will last longer.. i have read blogs from other runners and saw them do bike riding too.. maybe something i need to consider..
