Another lazy Saturday November 13, 2005
Posted by clayton in : workout , add a commentI woke up at 9:30am and by the time I finished my breakfast, it was like 11am. No morning run but I did have a run in the afternoon. The problem is that I didn't touch my mtb at all, I guess I'll have to do it tomorrow. Speaking of tomorrow, it's a really big day for roadies in Okinawa because the biggest road race event in Okinawa, "Tour de Okinawa" is starting. Well, to be accurate, the cycling events start today but the racing events start tomorrow. The owner of Bicycle kids (the store that I bought my bike) is gonna race, I've never really talked to him though…hope he does well anyway.
The run: I only went for 7.5km, easy, more like a jog but it felt fine. I need to get my body used to hydrating every 5km now because the next marathon has an aid station every 5km…The last one had it every 2.5km. So I tried it, 5km, piece of cake!!! If I tried this in September, I'd be dead…(hotness, inexperienced runner, etc) My lap times were, 1st 12:10, 2nd 12:10, 3rd 12:07, total of 36:27. To be honest, I was gonna go for atleast 10km but I was hungry and I had an emergency call from the nature god…hehe, by the way, I could come up with many more excuses.
Tomorrow: I really wanna get my mtb fixed…and I also want a cheap wireless computer for it, just so I could find a new running/biking course. If the weather looks ok, I'm thinking of going to a bike store nearby to let them check it, maybe ask them how to set my derailleurs.
