Christmas Shape Run with the Group

We have our Christmas Run planned for Friday evening and i was really excited for this run for a few reasons
- Its one of the festive runs which i love
- the shape(route shape) was a surprise for the runners, so we kind of guess the shape while running it, haha,
- and i wanted to run the city in evening enjoying the festive lights

but it was planned for 6:30 pm, where i leave work around 6pm, and i have to go home to drop off my work bags, change and reach by 6:30 at meetup point,
there was no way i could make it, but i just wanted to do it.

so leaving work at 6pm, I look fastest transport i could go by - a motorbike-taxi, and was home at 6:30pm, messaged the team that i will be 5 min late, changed to my running gear and again on motorbike-taxi and i was at meeting spot at 6:35, phew only 5 min late.

I loved the run, running the city in evening with the group wearing Santa hat, enjoying the festive spirit and lights, it was hot, but evening run are always fun, group went for beer post run, but i had to skip the same, and guess what the shape was - a Stocking.

Running in Singapore

One thing i enjoyed during my singapore trip is running early morning, they had proper running paths specially in sentosa island, and no vendors on pavement to block the way
I wanted to run around the river and in gardens of bay but sadly didn't get the chance,

Running in Nakhon Nayok

waking up in Nature and going out for a morning run is a runner's dream,

and a nice breakfast post run adds to the charm,

we stayed at a Golf Resort and they had a huge property, went for an early morning sunrise run while most of the guests were still sleeping.

watching the sunrise behind the hills while running on the hilly golf track is serene and so beautiful.

here are some pics from the run.

Distance Walking Workout (26th Oct/Sunday)

Still tired with Saturday outdoor activities I thought of skipping my Long Run on Sunday Morning,
but after i woke up, i just wanted to go out and run with my running buddies in the park.

dressed up for a good run ,reached the park to get some fresh air. Cheer up and Hie from fellow runners always boost me up.

But unfortunately i was out of energy within 30 minutes, i knew it was not a good day for a long run, but as i was already at Park i decided to go for Brisk Walk Instead.

covered approx 13kms with 10.30 min/km pace. It was a good walk.

sharing some pics of Park where i go running/walking
