Quest to my Marathon Training

Marathon Pacer's Training Run

Arrived at the ECP for the marathon pacer's training run on Saturday. Today program was supposed to be 24 km but i decided to run a shorter route. I could feel that my condition was nowhere near 80% as i had just recovered from a cold. The run was started at ard 0700 as a group of marathon trainee begun their LSD run. I was expecting a very hot day but to my surprise, the sun was hiding behind the clouds which made our run a cooling one. As the group went beyond NRSCC, i decided to make a u-turn. The actual u-turn point for the 24 km run was somewhere at the Changi coastal road. In the end, i managed to complete my weekend run at around 17 km as i felt almost breathless.
