I wear Keen Clearwater cnx sandals.

How long have you been wearing them?

How long have you been wearing them?

For many years already. For casual go gai gai and also for cycling. They are semi covered so they don't look sloppy as compared to open toe sandals or slippers. They also dry quickly when wet. Very versatile sandals.

What bike did you buy? I cycle much lesser now and jog more due to the weather.

just buy an entry level specialized bike

Yes best not to risk it. Hope you recover by first day

Feeling better now after sleeping. Not much issue other than sniffing/blocked nose which is solved with loratardine + pseudoediphrine. Sore throat died down at least by 80-90% vs yest (yest needed the anaesthetic lozenges).


But yest my pops also got similar but more severe symptoms. Tot same common cold virus (as my kid and me) but it is not. This morning tested with covid test kit, confirmed COVID.

Already told them to always wear their KF94s to cut down risk but my father has been a bit stubborn lately.
I mean, if no pax then pull down to chin can lah.......but if in lift or go Fairprice AC conditions, better pull up.

Now CNY all messed up for him. Quanantine in single room for whole CNY. Even if die die push past the discomfort, cannot be go my grandma's house to go lou hei and makan one with so many other kids and relatives mah. Sure all tio one coz so bloody infectious.

2k @ 5k current pace -1 min/km

Recovery: 5 min 25 seconds

4 x 800s @ 10k current pace -1 min/km

Recovery: 2 min for each set. After last set, 8 min rest.

1.6k @ 3k current pace -2 min/km

I should give this a try lol

Just saw this........

Enjoy. Need to get as fit as soon as possible by training and taking care of biomechanics and strength training etc (which is a good thing), actually even fitter than what you experienced and seeing the general running scene. I think very soon you will know what i mean.

ps. But the good thing is that it is very cooling vs running.
The caveat is that, you cannot stop. Once you stop for anything > 2 mins, you will know what the meaning is SWEAT.

i am still trying to hoot 5 min for the mile (just the last part of his training, but his is 4 min mile)....damn hard to reach.
IIRC 3:06 pace or something. Not for 1 km, but 1.609.

Wah new pattern.

Really difficult problem to solve. Even if got enforcement, they can run.
But he ran pretty slowly. If really wanna pursuit, is can. But LTA, not SPF.
