Event: Army Half Marathon Training

As a first year soldier, we need to run 10km in the Army Half Marathon aka AHM. Due to the SAF's rulings for progressive training, we were supposed to run a few distances. A few weeks ago, we went to East Coast Park to run. Just now, we ran around Mandai Hill and in Lorong Asrama. Although Mandai Hill route felt less tiring, but East Coast was so much more interesting. There were the sea, the sand, the babes, the mouth-watering BBQ food, all the happening stuff. But best of all, there were no slopes or rocky routes like Mandai Hill route. I guess the 7km run in East Coast conditioned me a little, making me less tired for the 8km run in Mandai Hill. Last time in East Coast, i slowed down after catching up with Iven to cheer him on and to make sure he wont stop. Then when we were reaching the end, i told him to sprint and guess what? He could sprint so much faster than me that i lost to him in the end. But i took my revenge you hairy nips! I won this time round~ (but my position dropped a lot cause a lot of faster people got posted in)
