training (26/5/09)

hey ppl, there will be milers training tomorrow as usual. same time and place. see ya!!! =)

Are You Ready?

This is the question for you all who is going to conquer the 21k run on 7th June. Are you ready?

Is your training lagging behind? Is your body ready for that? These are not the questions i ask. Instead, I ask are you ready?

Why? Because no matter how unprepared you are physically, you must prepare yourself mentally, ok? and piece of advice, don't overtrain if you feel unprepared for the run. Overtraining will not yield any good but injury. So, just try to keep up with your training schedule or sandip's one. Don't feel bad if you can't follow that, but never stop trying.

-When you stop trying, you stop being good.-

Milers summative

hello guys and girls.

As you all know, this coming Wednesday, the 20th of May 2009, training will be extremely fun (its just not only about running, but studies too).

We are having a "Milers Summative" for the MEDT109 people as their summative is around the corner. :D

Well, we have decided that we will be questioning you guys on..

'Thorax' and 'Mechanisms of Respiration'

Please be punctual for training on Wednesday! And, do study hard for it! Never underestimate any questions. :)

Besides that, congratulations for finishing the run and well done to all the participants in the 15km New Balance Pacesetters yesterday!

Hey. For those who signed up for the New Balance 15km run on this Sunday, 17th May 2009:

We'll be meeting up in front of IMU at 5:00 AM! (not 4:30! change of time!)

Please be punctual!! and see you guys then:)

training and a small request :)

Yo people! There will be no training next week since M109 are having term break and M208 are having EOS 2 in 1 week.

On a side note, our/my very dear MAPCU track and field team is facing a few hurdles now, with funding becoming an issue and many of the runners getting injured during training. Sandip, Arvinf and Minyi pulled their muscles and many of us are constantly bogged down by studies. So people! Do give them a pat on the shoulders, or a small encouragement note whenever you see members of the MAPCU training team. And just to name a few, they are

M109: Siobhan, Jiawei and Minyi
M208: Amirul, Arvinf, Kevin and myself :)
M108: Sandip, Jeremy Joseph, Joel, Joey
M207: Renyi and Rauf
M107: Zhiven
Pharmacy: Pang Tsen
and many many more! (If I didn't name you, take no offence please! These are just the few who really need the support now)

I must say I'm very proud of the team this year, their commitment to training is really superb; 4 trainings a week and they never complained. I love you people very much!

Training on 29th April

People, there will be training as usual tomorrow.

5.30pm.

Please be punctual!!

~To Infinity and Beyond~

The Devil's Scheme.

See this people?

Note for those aiming to run 21km on 7th June, this is your training schedule by the kilometers. (+4) means you run an extra 4km after milers training every Wednesday. Credits goes to Sandip Singh Saggi, please say a huge thank you to Sandip next time you see him for drawing up this awesomely insane training schedule! :)

In any case, for all who signed up for 21km, please train up. 21km is honestly not something that should be taken lightly, especially if you're not yet a seasoned runner. You should be doing runs every other day just to be prepared :) 21km is gonna be tough not only on your physical body but also your mental capacity. So, TRAIN UP PEOPLE.

Least you can do is to come for Milers training huh? It's on, next Wednesday 5.30pm at the atrium. Be there, rain or shine!

Training!!!

Training, as usual, Wednesday, 5.30pm Atrium. Pleast be punctual. 

For those who completed Orange Run, congratulations!! For those who have unfortunately missed it, never mind, there'll be more races coming on and yes, there'll be ample chances for you guys to experience what we call 'whatever doesn't kill you simply make you stronger.'

-Punctuality is a courtesy of king- a German idiom

Courage

The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I even had the courage to start -John Bingham

For some of you, this Sunday race will be your first ever 11k race in your whole life. It's ok to feel jittery, excited, slightly discouraged but always remember this quote from John Bingham whenever your self-doubt starts kicking in and threatening to derail your confidence.

It'll be a great feeling to complete a race. However, the courage that spurred you to join this race in the first place was something you much cherish. How many times in our life we just get cold feet in front of the obstacles? How many times in our life that we reach a crossroad but too scared to even continue?

You've made a right move by joining the race. Believe me, in the end of the day, you'll find yourself irreversibly changed by the race, no matter how fast or slow you complete the race. The passion will be burning in you, I say, for a very long time.

Let's give our best and to infinity and beyond.
