Short-Term Running Goals: In the next two years I'd like to qualify
for the 'Boston Marathon'.
I have a crazy dream to qualify for
the olympic games... but understand it's
very hard to do... so am not sure
if it's attainable... or what it would
take... I know there are a lot of fast
runners out there:D
In the next 6 months I'd like to try and
beat my personal best of: 3:34:56 in the
marathon.
Long-Term Running Goals: Qualifying for the Olympic Games. Without a doubt would
be a lifetime achievement. Personal: I'm a 30yr old single Christian Kiwi (New Zealander).
I'm passionate about my country, running, and
my career as a 3D Animator.

| Swam only 60 lengths of gym pool today. I couldn't even manage the usual 80 lengths. Total time was: 32:42. In all fairness my arms were still sore from the cable ski at Batam and the gym workout yesterday. |

No run again today. I have a good swim, though. Swam 60 lengths of the gym pool in 30:56... and did it pretty easy (even if my arms were still sore from yesterdays workout). My weight for some is also low right now... I currently weigh 66.5kg... which seems odd considering I havn't been running. (maybe it's the late nights... hmm). (previous weight was 67.5kg).

15km ran in 1:12:38 in the 'New Balance Real Run' in Singapore this morning. A good time
considering I'm suffering from a sore shin... I just hope I havn't over done it. |

This morning I ran a slow 32km in 3:26:14... the slowest time for that distance all year... I was suprised that my leg wasn't sore afterwards (although sore at the beginning).

I sore Dr. Benedict Tan today (Sports Physician) at 'Singapore Sports Medicine Centre'. I finally got my shin checked out... it didn't take long before he told me the bad news...That's right, I've got a stress fracture... and the x-ray confirmed it. He told me I must take a whole 3 months off running! I couldn't believe it... although at the back of my mind I thought this might me the case (as the pain was in the bone reagon).
So as you can imagine, I am really, really, disapointed. I'm not only going to miss the Singapore Marathon in December.... but also the Hong Kong Marathon in February. I guess I have no choice... So unfortunately, I wont be adding any running entries in here for a while...again, this has come as a shock...
Well, I hope the next three months go by quickly, because I love running so much... Reluctantly, I will be hanging up my running shoes for a while. I hope to be back here soon!

Just now, during lunch hour, I swam 100 lengths of the gym pool in 48:04. I felt good during the swim... and I didn't feel exhausted. (which is good considering I had a hard workout in the gym yesterday).
