Run for Food: 5KM milestone

As it turns out, I am continuing my running regiment after my “touch down run” on Sunday, while I am still at Cupertino for my 4.5 days of meeting. Given that the dawn breaks around 7am and I need to leave for office by 8am, I decide to go for indoor treadmill running instead. The [...]

Run for Food: First oversea run

For the first time since my maiden run, I postpone one running session this week, as I only run 2 days after the previous run. I blame it on the intense meetings this week but I know it is a lame one. As I will be travelling for a business meeting next week, I tell myself [...]

Run for Food: 4KM Full Run milestone

Today (28th Jan), I feel it is time for me to do a full run instead of the usual interval training. I have been doing “5 min run, 1 min walk” training for the past 1 week, and think I should be ready for a full 30 minutes run. Obviously I need to adjust my [...]

Run for Food: 100km milestone

It has been slightly more than a month since I started my maiden run. Today (27th Jan), it’s a milestone as I complete another run. I have run 29 times, covering 100.64km. How many more 100km will I run again?

Run for Food: Run #8

With all the running gears I could have possibly think of, I completed 7 runs within 12 days. A casual conversation with a friend over a hearty breakfast, prompted me to explore getting heart rate monitoring device. After researching on Garmin Forerunner series and Polar RS series, I decided to get Polar RS300X. While both [...]

Run for Food: Day Ten

After my maiden run ended up torturous, I decided that I need to run more than just once a week. I knew I need to do more short run, instead trying hard to complete a long distance within a running session. The approach will also be kinder to my body I reckoned. So I began [...]

Run for Food: Day One

I never had formal training for competitive running until I got enlisted in the Army. Since then, I had the opportunity to represent my unit and formation in long distance run competitions. I was at my peak of my “running career”, and also participated in a couple of marathons (finished “leisurely” and back then, taking [...]
