Good shoes

When you think about good branded shoes especially high heels, in a glance ones must think a name. It's Jimmy Choo. After I observed on the design, in fact they are quite normal. There's nothing so special on these shoes. I prefer Louboutin's shoes. They are more fancy and fashionable. You can see on the detail of how he can create a plain black shoes that are looked sexy on women's feet. By adding red sole on simple back shoes, it completely changes the look of the shoes. I also like Melissa shoes. It's so plastic not like Crocs. Melissa some how it's not so formal, fun, but still chic. The best is when she collaborated with Zaha Hadid. So far those are the best shoes in plastic and rubber category. Seeing good stuffs makes me happy. Owning them makes me even happier.

His Japan Trip

He always try to bluff me on his arrival time from overseas trip. I always want to pick him up from airport.

On 13th June he said that he needed to extend his trip because he would travel to Osaka for disaster recovery. I was very upset.

According to what he told me, he would be on train to Osaka on Saturday night. So he was not contactable.

Infact when I was sleeping, somebody entered the bed room n put a pillow beside me. This time he was successfully surprising me.

My Running Activity

I am happy because I found some friends who like running. Most importanting is they are consistent and they stick to the plan. Running in a group is different from running alone. I feel motivated.

At the beggining, 4km felt so long n so tiring. Now,4km we don't feel tired. It's the indication that we need to increase the distance.

Our first route is from office go to park connector beside ITE College East all the way following MRT track till Tampines ave 2 then come back to office. Total distance is 4.7km. The conture is not flat. There are a lot of up slopes n down slopes. We ran this route 2 times. Personally I don't like this route.

Our second route is the park connector opposite Summer Village, a landed property complex on the new upper changi road. This route is flat n not so many people. I like this route though. For the guys, they found this route is too easy.

Our third route is the park connector beside Big Eater. It's newly open all the way to Bedok Resevoir. The conture is mostly flat. I like this one also because not so many people. But the street lights are off so the path is totally dark. I guess this is not a good option if we run later than 6.30pm.

I think this is a good start for this running group at office. I hope that this activity can last long. Too bad I need to go back to school for my final semester.

Running form

I have been running lately after my sundown. I run 2 to 3 times within a week. The knee pain comes back again because of my wrong running form. I landed with heels that injured my knee cap. http://www.newtonrunning.com/run-better/optimal-running-form I need to change my running form but to change it, I need to see me running. Like if you are doing aerobic or any kind of dancing, normally the room has mirror so you can see whether you are following the instructor correctly and most importantly is your posture.

My end year target

It had been a more than 6 months i never ran till last week Sun Down 10 km race. There are few things encorage me to actively run again recently.

Most important thing is because there's a huge difference interms of physical appearance between 5 years ago n now. Face shape has changed as well.

When I am running, I normally do not think of anything. I just focus on my running rythm.

Constantly running will make me not easily tired. I remember few months ago when I hardly have time to so other things, I felt very tired and I always wanted to sleep.

As I like to eat nice food and my portion is not small, hopefully I can be consistant in running as part of my lifestyle to be healthy and maintain the body size.

Sun Down Marathon 2012

I was forced to join this run race by Niko. I only trained once 2 days before the race. I could still feel the musle pain because of the last minute training during the race. We started 7 minutes later from the gun time. At the first 100 meter we could still run together. After that, he went first leaving me behind with my turtle speed. The first kilometer is always tough...the subsequent km was better with the body has been warmed up n the so called engine has run in higher gear. I enjoyed the first 6 km. Then the route led us to a narrow bridge where we spent a lot of time for queueing to pass the bridge. After the bridge was the dark n narrow path beside Kallang river. I think that was the worst part. Many of them,including me, just walked. If I want to take over, it's a bit difficult tough. So I took the opportunity to rest hoping that the next km I would be able to run. The end of this dark narrow path was a staircase leading to Geylang road..OMG. I almost fell, lost balance, when I climbed the staircase. I guess it was because we use different musle when we run. Then suddenly the body needs to switch using different muscle. I also don't like the Geylang route. They only provide 1 lane for the race. It ended the same as the narrow path, difficult to take over. So I walked again...sigh..waisting time. Another thing on Geylang is there are many vehicles. I can feel the different in cleanliness of the air. Finally we turned to nicholl highway again, indicating thay we were almost near the end. The sign showed "8km". The last 2 km was better. Niko had just finished when I was in Nicholl highway and he was waiting for me near the finish line. I finished with in 1 hour 33minute gun time. He finished 15 minutes earlier than me. I guess my timing wouldn't be that bad if the route was not that narrow dark path n the stupid bridge. I need to blame my self on not trained properly before the race. I went home with few blisters on my feet, a medal,n hungry stomach. I am looking forward to join standchart or great eastern end of this year.
