Base. Base. Base

In preparation for upcoming Marathon in December, i need to get in loads and loads of aerobic exercise. Ran 58:02 today. Huge improvement on tuesday's timing (same route). Need to get in at least 3 runs a week. Two short runs during the workweek, and one long one on sunday. Really need to get that bike trainer. Have not been biking for months!!
I think its ironic that i have high blood pressure and that the popular remedies for it is to exercise more and to reduce sodium intake. I'm already exercising a lot! And everytime i go on long races, i take sports drinks which contains ridiculously amounts of sodium! Something to do with electrolytes and all that. Dont take can die in the sun kind. So...how?

Bintan trip

An hour's ferry from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal whisked us away to this island called Bintan, with its numerous shops selling Polo at 20% off.
Activities which involves $$$: kayaking, snorkelling, billard, snooker, SILK (the club), pasar oleh oleh,
Activities which were free and fun: Table soccer, swimming at the pool, playing slides at the pool, catching crabs at night at the beach, playing water polo, beach volleyball, snakes and ladders (with alcohol), driving the buggy around, campfire at the beach with marshmellows, talk cock,
So u see, dont really need $$$ to be fun or to keep occupied
All in all, not too bad.
