PaterTenebrarum Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 StandChart next month will be my last run 4 da year. But I have already registered for several half marathons (2xu, Income, Marina Bay run) and the full Sundown. Anyone doing them as well? tinkymale 1 Quote

exm143 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Anyone running 42km this Sunday for SCMS? Quote
sh3nzh3n Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Anyone doing regular 5/10km at 5-6min pace to meet Edited December 3, 2016 by sh3nzh3n Quote
sean_sean Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) Good job to all the finishers at SCMS yesterday! Have a speedy recovery! Edited December 5, 2016 by sean_sean Quote A man who stays in a cave.
PaterTenebrarum Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) Did 42km at StandChart last Sun. Was confident to complete below 4h30min. Then tragedy struck at the 35km mark. My running buddy suddenly had a muscle pull and had difficulty running. He also felt ill and had to take a toilet break. He told me to go ahead but I decided to stay back and stay with him. I mean, that's what friends are for. So, I motivated him. We ran much slower but his muscle strain became worse. So we walked between 38 and 39km, ran 30 to 40, walked 40 to 41. and ran 41 to the finish line. Still completed below 5h at 4h 50 mins ish.

Congrats on finishing your SCM full marathon! You did the right thing! If you have running buddies with you, the last thing one could ever do is to "dump him/her and go ahead to settle for your personal best"... bluerunner and PaterTenebrarum 2 Quote
PaterTenebrarum Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 It was the only decent thing to do. Of course, he felt guilty for holding me back. But friendship is more important than a good timing. Anyway, completing 42km, below 5h, with an injured friend in tow, aint that bad a timing. Quote

Anyway, completing 42km, below 5h, with an injured friend in tow, aint that bad a timing. With all the runs you are signing up/running - your timing will definitely improve for sure! Think we mentioned about running 21km below 2hrs? Ready for that? Quote
PaterTenebrarum Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Yup! So far managed to run sub 2h for half marathons for a few events this year...provided I dont go for toilet breaks or if anything else happens! thorzguy 1 Quote

PaterTenebrarum Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) Completed Sundown full marathon at 4h 32mins. I wanted to complete the race below 4h30min. Was doing pretty well at first. But I had a rumbling in my tummy at around the 34/35km mark. And when one has to use the toilet, ONE MUST USE THE TOILET. The final stretch up Benjamin Sears Bridge was quite a killer and the slow 21km runners were blocking my way. Bloody irritating. Hummph. Anyway, am doing 21km at the 2XU event this coming Sunday. Aim to complete it below 1h55min. Fingers crossed. Edited March 28, 2017 by PaterTenebrarum bluwerks and Aces87 2 Quote

PaterTenebrarum Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) Thanks guys. Toilet breaks always throw my timing off. Anyone running 2XU half marathon this coming weekend? I also aim to do these races this year The Eco half marathon All 3 Performance Series half marathon Army half marathon Otter run half marathon StanChart full marathon Anyone doing these? Its a bit dull running alone. Also...anyone knows if the Newton Challenge or the Singapore City Race are on this yr? No news of dem on JustRunLah.... Edited March 29, 2017 by PaterTenebrarum Quote
thorzguy Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Am on this weekend for 2XU 21km! Have not decide for AHM though... Quote
thorzguy Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Good job to all 2XU runners! Hope everyone had a good run. Next in consideration: ST Run and AHM. Btw, is Newton Challenge on for this year? I don't seem to find any info on that.. Quote

manehiso Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 A short quick qn: After running a full marathon, how long should we rest before starting to run again? Quote

Depends. If after a full marathon, you can still walk as normal without limping, then can resume running after 3 days rest. Quote Don't read and response to guests' post

Like one on Sunday, and another the next coming Sunday? Quote
