2XU Compression Run 2014 (Half Marathon or 21.1 km)

This year include full marathon on top of 10 km and 21.1 km race.

After last year long sickness, opt for half marathon instead of full marathon. I will attempt my first full marathon few months later at Sundown Marathon on May 31st.

My initial plan is to do 2XU Compression Run half marathon and Run 350 half marathon before resume my many years' yearly two full marathons.

Took a early shuttle bus from Woodlands at 3:00 am and reached the venue at Nicoll Highway MRT around 3:30 am.

After depostied my baggage at the baggage deposit area, visited the mobile toilet and proceeded immediately to the starting point.

Surprisingly no one queue up at the starting line half an hour before the actual race start time at 4:45 am.

After about 5 minutes, checked with one lady and she also didn't know about it until further asked around and found out the starting line I was there initially was for 10 km run. So rush to the other opposite starting line and it was already long queue.

Started my second wave run 10 minutes later at 4:55 am.

The pace was about 5.5 minutes per km for the first km.

Later control my pace around 6 minutes per km or speed of 10 km/h since I've trained around 15 km one week ago and not sure my ability to run at faster pace.

After about 15 kms run and felt my body was rather good (always listen to my body) and energetic and my mind just tell me I may able to complete the run around 2 hours so sped a bit and ran at faster pace around 4 minutes and 37 seconds per km or speed of 13 km/h for the last 6 kms started from Marina Sands.

Initially planned to run around 2 hours 15 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes.

Have a very good run and completed my 21.1 km in 1 hour 59 minutes. This is the longest distance I ran 15 months later.

MR25 Progressive Series 2014 – 10km

The race started early at 7:00 am. Reached there around 6:45 am alone. Due to stomach problem so started from last row and run at slower pace. After about 2 km, tried to follow one runner and have no choice to up my pace a bit to around 6 minutes/km since I wasn't sure about the actual route at some part.

Sped up a bit at 8 Km water point at Lornie road.

Ran cautiously since the trail terrain is quite slippery and very uneven. Control my down slope speed afraid of tripping.

Managed to achieved a time of 1 hour 1 minutes 14 seconds and came in 27th out of 37 runners.

Nike We Run SG 2013 – 10km



Woke up early at 5:00 am. Took one banana.

Reached the Flyer car park at 6:00 am.

Did some pre race warm up stretching exercise before the race.

This is my third public run.

Felt good again to be able to run with many runners even though I'm not completely well.


The race started early at 7:10 am which was flagged off by Guest Of Honour (Olympic and world champion Allyson Felix).


Initially targeted to run around 1 hour 15 minutes but managed to achieved a time of 1 hour 2 minutes.

Overall the race was well organized and interesting with three split points with multiple routes!










Runner's entitlement : one dry-fit event Tee, one dry-ft finisher Tee and one Nike sports water bottle.

Still a long way to total health recovery.

My dream is able to run full marathons again next year onward !

With the Lord's blessing, I will be able to run normally and strongly again next year !

Big Splash Mizuno Wave Run 2013 – 10km

Woke up early at 5:00 am. Took two pieces multi-grain bread.

Reached the car park near to Big Splash at 6:00 am.

Did some pre race warm up stretching exercise before the race. Saw some Sundown Ultra Marathon 100 K runners passed by towards their ending points about 9 km away.

My first public run this year was MR25 10 Km trail run on January 6, 2013. This is my second public run and have rested many months after my hell illness.

Felt very good again when gathered with all the happy faced runners and felt almost like 100 % well again even though not yet.


The race started early at 7:00 am.


Initially targeted to run around 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes. Started very slow initially until felt more comfortable after U-turn at 5 km. Another reason prompted me to run a bit faster due to strong gusty head wind after U-turn and thought it was going to rain very soon. It indeed rained some time later and I was not affected.

Worn Polar RS800ds heart rate monitor and monitored my heart beat through out the run to make sure it is below my targeted beats per minute.

Managed to achieved a time of 1 hour 5 minutes 8 seconds and came in 379th. Last year used to clocked around 46 to 49 minutes for 10 km run. After the sickness, take it as recovery run and dare not push myself too hard.

Overall race was well organized.

One kind young lady help to take one picture of me.
