15 Jun
Did a slowish 6km run on the treadmill for a total time of 43mins.
Started the first 2km @ 7.5km/hr. For the next 3.5km, did an "interval" of 9.5km/hr for 1km and 8.5km/hr for 0.5km in alternate.
My left ankle started to hurt after 5.5km so called it a day at 6.0km.
Still, any run is better than no run : )
16 Jun
Did an evening run at ECP with fu ren.
Distance= 7km.
Time= 44:44.
Pace= 6:23/km.
Avg HR= 167
This is another progressive (in speed) run.
0-1 km= 7:31/km
1-2 km = 6:24/km
3-5 km= 6:14/km
5-6 km= 6:10/km
6-7 km = 5:47/km
First good run without pain : )

假期- Pan Pacific Hotel- Day 1, 2 and 3
Huh? Pan Pacific Hotel? Thought you went to Rawa Island?
Hmm....not exactly......we were supposedly to spend our 3-day holiday in Rawa Island.
So what happened?
Many reasons....one of them was the horrendous jam before Singapore Immigration checkpoint. We were stuck in a standstill jam for 1.5hours (from 7am to 8.30am) which we eventually threw in the towel and headed home.
Sorry Mike and Sophia! Patience is never one of my virtues.
We checked the airline website for same day tickets to Bangkok, but were quoted SGD900 by Airasia. Forget it! We could better spend our money elsewhere.
Then, the idea of spending our holiday in a local hotel crossed our mind.
Ok! We were deciding between Four Seasons, Hilton, Conrad and Pan Pacific.
For those who remember, we had our wedding solemnisation in Pan Pacific almost a year back(1st July), and we were impressed with the hospitality of the hotel staff.
Therefore, the winner was clear- Pan Pacific.
On top of that, the hotel is offering a promotion now which offers the flexibility to choose your own rewards.
We chose the $60 F&B credit + the free upgrade.
To top it off, Pan Pacific upgraded us to the suite because your truely here, indicated that it's our anniversary stay :)))
Photo of the suite- complimentary upgrade from Panpac. Thumbs up!
Since the suite came with complimentary breakfast, we were able to save our $60 to spend on other food in the hotel (1st night- beer+ food, 2nd day- Keyaki Japanese buffet lunch).

Hmm...cant exactly recall what we did for the 3 days 2 nights stay...let me see....sleep, eat, shopping, eat, movie, eat, sleep...and the cycle repeated.
Oh ya! We spent about an hour on the treadmill before fu ren went for a swim (yeah...if you recall again...i cant swim).
Overall, a rejuvenating holiday for us!
Hm..suggested to Fu Ren we should do this every quarter....^..^

假期- Rawa Island Day 0
现在凌晨三点。
可能刚才喝太多了，睡了两个钟头后就睡不着。
早上七点约好在Mike的家集合后，一起驾车上大马的Rawa Island.
一向对海边度假没兴趣，因为我是旱鸭子。
两年前的普吉岛之游，夫人和我多数的时间都在酒店抱头大睡。在那之后，我们俩除了钓鱼，都对“海边度假”之类，兴趣索然。
不过，夫人最近工作繁重，希望这次的假期能让她放松心情。
我们俩都带了跑步鞋，希望有机会用的着。

Recovery Run
Ran a slowish round of Bedok Reservoir this evening which took me 28mins.
Didnt feel any pain except some tightness of the right hamstring.
It felt so good to sweat again!
I AM BACK : )

无题（６月１０日）
之一 Saucony 100 Plus Singapore Passion Run
I didnt run in this event though I have enrolled, but was there to support Fu Ren and a friend.
The ritual photo taking before a race
Overall, very well organised event (as compared to Sundown) but I heard some discussion on SGRunners' forum that some runner's timechips have failed to register + the actual race distance is longer than stated (the same problem with Sundown too)!

SM Goh is the Guest-of-Honour
The distance registered on my friend's polar was 11.55km for the 10km race.
Fu ren did very well in this race and clocked 1hr9mins in the 10km (or 11.55km) women open.

That ranked her 90th out of the 693 women participants.

Well done! Dear dear!
之二 有朋自远方来
今天到雅加达开会。
吃完午餐后，离傍晚的班机有点时间，就约了现驻雅加达的旧同事见面。
我们从一点多见面聊到他送我上机。途中，他还带了我去买当地的kueh lapis.
好久没聊到这么尽兴！不亦乐乎！不亦乐乎！
