YEeeaAH! Completed 30km in 3 and a half hours. It wasnt easy at all, considering the furthest I had run was 21km, and the week before was a harsh one. 10km on both tuesday and wednesday. And to top it off, 6 rounds around a hilly and unforgiving Eagle's Loop, equivalent to 8.5km, with our newly appointed gung ho PC, who cajoled us to run with a radio on our back in an attempt to complete one round in 16:30, a time which even Encik will be proud of.

It certainly wasnt as difficult as the AHM. Afterall, I have been conditioned quite a bit. However, running 30km without resting is certain suicidal. I stopped and walked for some distances. Other than that, there isnt anything else worth mentioning. I mean, running is such a mundane activity, what more could one expect from it? The journey home was a much more entertaining one.

I boarded 196, which would bring me from marina crescent to clementi without much hassle. I expected a undisturbed environment, except for the monotonous drone of the engine and the random chatter to lull me into a well deserved slumber. However, there was this eccentric middle aged man who kept ranting certain incomprehensible sentences and hitting the window pane for no reason. There was only 3 plausible conclusions I could draw. 1. He really craves attention 2. He's a really lousy singer (he has ear phones on) and 3. He's a nut case. Okay that was crude. Maybe he's just mentally challenged. I chose the most obvious one and I shant reveal my choice =P. Anyway I was robbed of my rest. Even listening to my ipod almost on full blast couldnt drown out his irresponsible actions. What baffled me was why this person was moving around freely, punishing innocent commuters with his horrible singing. Oops?! Did I just reveal my choice? =X

My mind is shutting down now. Im going to rest. More entries to come tomorrow.
