Then a fair bit of planking Push-ups Burpees Flutter kicks Yes I do that everyday at home but nothing like burning rubber on the road, 'cos we need to reach a certain distance " like reaching a high of at least maybe about 30km dry run" before the actual run ; it preps us for the big day psychologically and the body is sort of ready to take it on and the last 10km can "tikan tikam" just cruise slowly 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I hope everyone can complete their own marathon runs, fairly and proudly :) Agree and it should be one's own comfort zone; No way can our locals compare to the Kenya's or Eithopians ; Though we have our locals like Mok Ying Ren; Nothing gained by cheating by whatever silly means, one's just gotta be passionate and most singaporeans are recreation runners Seems like not many mcf bro's into marathons (maybe they like to burn rubber tyres or condoms than shoes) Edited November 29, 2015 by BanCoe 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showster Twincharged November 29, 2015 Share November 29, 2015 I don't like to run for too long as the train up phase and the recovery phase too long. Haha kidding. Just lazy.

Once you get the "hang" of it your body will go on auto pilot and you will get the urge for it... kind of like adrenalin rush ......... just like sex You will feel lousy for 1/2 day and next day can go back to work already (provided you have put in the distance prior to the main run Of course provided you just go steady and don't exceed or chiong chiong and then hit the wall and then finished (seen it happen to the young ones especially) Its just a mind over body thing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ender Hypersonic November 29, 2015 Share November 29, 2015 I'm kinda in a boycott mode with standchart since this year when their fees for full marathon is approaching $100.. Anyway now feel that half marathon is just nice for my limit.. Full marathon for me, the last 10km is a half walk, half snail pace jog, which for is exceed my limit. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a target to run 30 full marathon or as many as I can before 50 yrs old, so far have run 8 FM since 2010. But now find FM are overpriced. Don't t think will be doing FM now. If really want to be healthy, running 5km daily will be healthier. Can run HM by myself at Punggol waterway or ECP Fort Rd. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After doing HK Marathon, i totally gave up on any FM in tropical country. In Singapore, I had nvr run full marathon from start to finish no matter how hard i train. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
