1,000km and still counting...


Shared a momentous milestone with Angel... Uploaded my run with Angel onto Garmin Connect after Saturday morning's run and saw that my mileage for the year is over 1,000km this year!!! Yeh!!! One of my goals is to be able to clock 1,000km this year... And I did it with 3 months to spare... Super stoked!!!




Saturday 8-Sep-12
Woke up at 6am... Both my ladies (Angelena and Lena) were still sleeping... Decided to bring my other lady, Angel, for a quick run around the block to start off the day before we head off to Wonthaggi for the weekend...

As soon as I picked up her collar, her ears lifted and she instantly knew that she is in for a good time... Told her that she need to work hard for her breakfast this morning... She has to do a 5km run with me.... Her constant tail wagging being the sign of acknowledgement...

Strapped on my water belt, filled a bottle (not for me...) and off we went...

As usual, Angel cannot control her excitement and started out fast and hard for the first km... I just maintained my pace and kept her in my sight all the time...

Have not ran with Angel for a long time and thought that she might have lost some pace... Well well well, how wrong was I... After she settled down after the first km, she just took it easy and followed my pace... At times, I felt that she was giving me the "hurry up"...

4km done... Since she was doing just fine, decided to push her to do sub 6min pace for the last km... What a trooper!!! She rose to the challenge and kept me in check all the way...

Well done Angel... Very proud of you...


Can I have my breakfast now?
