Decided to go for a long run of maybe 15-18km.Happened to shout at Sgrunners forum and jio cosmic who stayed at tanah merah to join part of my run....so I ran down to his house and we did a 8km loop before he head home while i carry on my journey back....quite a fast pace...hopefully using run-walk, i can maintain this pace and finish strongly.
Route:
start from my house and run along bedok reservoir road towards east and turn right to bedok north ave 3, left turn at swimming pool to new upper changi road and after tanah merah mrt, turn right to bedok road, run all the way to upper east coast road..right turn at bedok south ave 1 and turn left to bedok south road, turn right to upper changi road and turn right to bedok south ave 1 after mrt...turn left to bedok south road at junction, turn left to bedok south ave 3 at CC and turn right back to upper new changi road...run eastwards until bedok park connector and turn right and run along park connector back to bedok reservoir park

It was a rainy aftern and decided to do a ran with J and S at the first half of the marathon route since we will be doing 30km at the second half east coast park this sat. however, J was cuaght up with her work and we met up later at 7.30pm....and a tiring me did not direct J properly and we end up going the wrong way to marina south. We only managed to start at 8.30pm....so i decided we should do a 13-14km instead of the original 18km trying out the run walk.....it was a good try and J and S were fine after the run but the distance is too short to see the advantages of this method.....this sat will be the true test of the run-walk method....
