Run Elis Run - Week 1 to 3

week 0 (the week before my week 1 start)

After the great setback i have in Shape Run, I have decided to just wake up earlier , wear my shoes and bring my son along.. he is my best friend... so i need hom along anyway he need to trim down also... so why not...

before i had my compliation ready, I just jogging continuously around the estate whick is about 1.4km... coming to 3 times for that whole week... sweat alot and met the Aunty which i mentioned before who lost alot of weight by walking and walking...

she was glad that i finally decided to lift my butt up and started joining the morning run mob...one day i stopped and did a small talk with her.. she said she did 5 X the distance what I was running daily.... opps.... no wonder can slim down lah,..... but too bad she is apple shaped.. so u know what i mean....

this is one of the good proof for my morning run .. i saw Sun rise hahahaha at Sembawang....

Week 1

It was easier to just wake up and run in week 1, more or less my body already accustomed.. or rathered conditioned to wake up earlier ... abt 6.30am and leave the house by 6.50am and just run and come home by 7.30am... washed up a nd leave for work at 8am... well first of all I must give credit to my maid... without her all these is IMPOSSIBLE, thanks bibik.... and my son.... u must be wondering why he is so enthusiatic... cos i allow him to ride on bicycle while i run.... well i must admit that riding bicycle really dun help him much but at least he moved his butt... for Hunney... ai... she is a sleeping beauty... so she prefer to sleep....

I was one 1 min jogging and 3 min walking interval... my song list start from the Song Green light as warm up brisk walking ... follow by Just Dance 1 min then Poker face 3 min.... then repeat the 1 min 3 min thing.... for me it is easier cos i used to running.... Yvonne u should try this.... later of the week i changed to 1 min walk 3 min jog (haolian again) and i did the 1/4km for 4 times a week and also added an what i called Endurance Run (chim) for 3km which i will use my favourite 45min fastforward Kylie Classic to just keep on running ... for a good solid 3 km.... so meaning I ran 5 times in week 1 ... feel so good....

i am still on the estate track... then i realised that i alot of fatter pple run in the morning... all inspired by the Aunty one ba hahahaha ... and I am proud to say I am maybe the fattest pple that can jog jog run run bounce bounce ba.. hahaha the truth is I really never master the art of brisk walking... how shd i twist my butt and walk faster .... hmmmm

Week 2

Week 2 programme was Right round as warm up then Boom Boom Pow 3 min and Womanizer 2 min... Ivy asked ... why womaniser for brisk walk... reason ... i need to train my stamia to complete a 5-6km.... not just 2.5km then no strength liao ya u are right I am talking abt my Shape Run flop ...

I ran almost every weekday except one day rained...

then that Saturday I decided to explore a new route which many of the Sembawang runners go and i never went there for the good 8 years i stayed here... it was called the Sungei Sembawang or the Park Connector under the NParks.... It is the Endurance run of the week... plus I am truely Wow at such a wonderful place in Sembawang.. curousity brought me along for a good 4km run .... (there is maker on the floor) i could not believe it ... i came back as red as the lobster ... and suffered body ache for a few days....

Week 3

was a busy week cos we had a ministerial event..so i only ran on friday 2 days ago... I did a 2.4km.. after all the weeks i decided to leave my 1.4km track and moved to Sungei Sembawang and increase my mileage.... ya I am freaking you all out sisters hahahahaha

and Saturday i run 2km ... cos i need to prepare for Helmey Racing Birthday ... eat alot of food... food and food....

Sunday ... finally is TODAY , i supposed to do a Endurance Run.... but I run abt 3km onl, cos my body hurts alot... slept late last night... not much energy then after i came home... we had yesterda left overs for lunch.... then i slept from 1 am to 5pm ...wake up to watch NDP... then Shah came back and oler Pizza Hut ... so until now I am very very full... and I am going to blog until the new week start hahahaha (how I am supposed to wake up early and run tomorrow) ....

Conclusion

The Programme sort of works... it builds up endurance and i can run even longer time le.... now moving to Sungei Sembawang more and more pple overtakes me... esp pple doing brisk walking... oh today i jogged pass a lady who is on her skates.. hahaha finally I am faster than someone....

Okay .. food wise ... I am still on brown rice for Monday to Friday ... Sat Sun ...and Public Holiday are FREE TO EAT days... (i still got tml)

Training.... 2 things i will focus on...

#1 my boss just taught me a running technic... is run on tip toes which she say will less stress on the heels and knees .... i will try next week.

#2 crosstraining... which I am very lack in ... alot of exercise mag says it is very important to increase flexibilty and stability which will help in the runs...

So see my next update next Sunday ba
