  No Time No Blog Wow, been a while since I left any words here.Life's been good! Been enjoying my runs and workouts with CardioTrainer although I'm not so liking the GPS' inaccuracies but I always have a backup plan, right :) I have already ran two 10kms and my personal best is 1:11:30. Will have to train harder in the coming months as I went nuts and registered for the 10km Sundown Marathon!!!The 5kms are getting easier - I think I can finish that in about 34 mins or less on a flat terrain. My time is defini...

  New Toy Got myself an Android phone several weeks ago and with that, I downloaded an app called Cardio Trainer that has been tracking my workouts and progress. I like it, but not so much - it's not very accurate especially with the distance. For example, I ran 8.2km today but it said I ran 9km... Sigh. So I still have to depend on mapometer at times, even when CT's GPS tracks the route correctly, but it shows me jumping and going zig-zag, especially on routes I repeat. Yet, I love that at every minut...

Earned some unwanted tan lines *sigh*Hope to hit 8 or maybe even 9km next month.Long runs make me hungry all the time *sigh* Wish eating wasn't so much of a hassle...

  On Top Of The World I Am I dunno where to begin. But first let me say that I've lost at least another 600g since the last weigh-in (of 55.2kg), and I am now 54.6kg <-- and that's with clothes on, had something to drink, pre-workout meal and hours after I had woken up!! So I think an accurate weight would be around 54.4kg.I never thot I'd ever see the number 54 again! :D I am beaming!!! I'm just 400g to my ultimate goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D You don't know how excited I am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've worked so hard for the pa...

  Good One To Read Managed to workout at 9pm, an hour after breaking fast, a few times. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it was only 20 mins of Jillian's 30 Day Shred each time. I had a one week break from fasting, so upped my activity a little. Yet, no running. Quite miss it actually. Here's a link of someone's blog on her transition from couch to Jillian's 30DS to running: http://www.theshredheads.com/2010/08/jillian-michaels-running-and-weight-loss.htmlVery interesting read and I can rel...

  On A Break So I did two weeks of MTC and then a week and a half of running, and both my legs are SORE! Funny how strength training makes me hungry all the time. And when I switched back to running, I don't care much for food.Yesterday was my last 8km run. Will be fasting the next month, so I can't do anything strenuous the next 4 weeks plus - less glycogen in the muscles can't make me do much - and I can't find the time either, unless I run at 12 midnite, but what are the chances of that. Will be doing ...

  The Diet It's Friday. Usually on Fridays, I slowly let myself go. Then on Sats, I let loose and by the time it's Sunday nite, my bloodstream is so full of poison that by Monday, I wished I hadn't gone crazy with the junk food.It has been 19 days since I am junk-free :P Congrats, me! I wasn't planning on going beyond 14 days, but I really like how I feel now, that I think I'll just continue until I really crave for something bad. I didn't go all full 19 days junk-free though - I am not that crazy ;) - ...

  New PRs This past week was supposed to be my rest week after 2 months of continuous workouts... but I overate [4 weekends ago for 2 weekends] and got so bloated, in other words, FAT, I decided to workout another week before I allow the body to rest. So far, no burnout but my knees have been giving me trouble... so this week, I MUST recuperate completely.The past 2 weeks has been about personal records. I ran 8km last Tues for 57 mins and 18 seconds on a less terraineous route. Only a few weeks ago, I...
