Today, I find myself in the exact same situation last Friday. In preparation for the 18k of TikTakBo, Coach Rio did us do 10 rounds of intervals… That’s 10 rounds at the track oval where you jog on the curves and run on the straight portions. It’s a total of 4km.

Just like last week, I felt that my body was heavy and my muscles started to ache again. Maybe it’s that all the stress just accumulates towards the end. Both my shins and the calves on my left leg started to ache… and I was just warming up. Luckily, after my drills, the tightness went away. I also felt heavy again. Maybe it’s my diet. Perhaps I should change the food that I eat. More fruits and vegetables and less meat.

I’m looking forward to this Sunday. I’m just hoping it isn’t hot. I’ll be getting my new Nike Hydration Belt tomorrow. I don’t want to rely on water stations anymore. Hopefully, my belt doesn’t distract me. The next thing I’m getting is a Garmin. I’m still thinking whether to get the 305 or the 405. Jaymie aka The Bull Runner says she prefers the 305 over the 405. I’ve yet to decide. Also, I haven’t gotten my reward yet for my 3rd 100km logged run. Maybe when I reach the 400km mark, what I’ll be getting is worth 200km
