My 2 months training in preparation for Penang Marathon 2008 started on Sept 9 and today is the end of the training regime. Total mileage clocked was 367.91Km and two 30k LSD was done during this training period.
The last LSD of 21k done today was not a great run as I am feeling the strain of tiredness in the training. Leg muscle are starting to show some aches and stiffness. But I hope I should be OK with some rest and slow jogs over the next two weeks leading to race day on Nov 16.
I am not expecting too much out of the Penang race with what I had put in. Anyway I will be out to enjoy the run and finishing the race under 4h 30mins will be a big bonus for me. Else I reckon I can do a Sub5 finishing, and hopefully nothing funny act up during race day.
Time to have some rest now and take on the bridge come Nov 16.
Life is not all about work and making money. There is no life without good health, and my key principle in life is to stay healthy and enjoy the utmost of things that come along. I encourage friends that I know to do whatever form of outdoor exercise that they like to stay healthy. For me, running and mountain trekking is one way to challenge myself all the time and see how far I can go, and on top of it stay healthy.
