Weekly Thu SAFRA Run (Portsdown Loop)

Today's run will see us take the Portsdown stretch, but without going to Clementi Rd and Ulu Pandan Canal. That will be a distance of about 13km.

Most of those who went for the KL marathon came tonight. Still in the recovery process, we decided to take it easy. There was a half-hour shower prior to our run, and that made the run very smooth and easy.

I set my HR monitor to the 20k set. However, my exercise files memory was full, and I could not have the full recording of my entire heart rate. I was running most of the time with Sok Hwa and Paul, as the rest were running a little slower behind.

Towards the last 3km, I decided to pick up pace and ran quickly all the way back to Clubhouse. It was a fun and refreshing run. After that, we went for our usual dinner at the nearby food centre, and tonight we had 2 new girl runners, Teen and Evelyn join in the post-run dinner for the first time. Chairman, Thiam Huat, was quite happy with the group spirit that is building up amongst the runners.
