Run! 12/02/19 Outdoor



It's still cold outside, but more tolerable than January, in particular in sunny afternoon. A short outdoor run made the city much more lovely! The speed is slower than normal: 4km/31m23, mainly due to the last part during which I lost my way looking for the exit. I'm happy that I didn't catch a cold ;)

Run! 12/02/17 Back to practise

After the stretching 21km in HK on 5th, it's finally time to back to practice! The toes with blisters still hurt a bit, but the tiredness has generally gone. A normal 5km/34m, with a short water break in the middle. I feel the necessity of doing longer kilometers before my first full marathon...

Run! 12/02/05 Second half marathon@Hong Kong

(Photo by Amar Rai@www.mojfun.com)

Covered 21km in 2h13 in Hong Kong Marathon 2012. It was a nice run across the downtown and along the sea, despite the weather was already a bit too warm for long distance. The food shops in the last mile smelled great. I hadn't practiced much since the December event in Shanghai, and the tunnel was really tough for me. Anyway, I managed to finish without catching a cold this time!

Sad to hear that a young man died after finishing half marathon. It's not wise to let your mind strength go beyond your physical limit...
