Dear Fellow Runners,
Just finished our final run this morning before the Singapore Standard Chartered Marathon 2011 on 4th December. The whole of East Coast was filled with runners who were training for their run next week. I met a runner who had done at least about 5 marathons and his advise was to take it easy and listen to your body doing the run.You need to know the pace at which you need to complete the run. If you push to hard at the start you may hit the wall after which you may not be able to run at all. Pace yourself and you will be able to push yourself the last 3rd or last quarter of the run depending on how much fuel (meaning your stamina) is left in your tank.
The sub-plot of the Standard Chartered Marathon are a number of runners raising money for their favorite charity. Support the runners that assist the charities that operating without government support as long as they are legitimate such as the Sanctuary House. A friend, Rod Monteiro and his running guru Dr. Tan Swee Keng are raising funds for Sanctuary House. Support him.
I am going take a break until the run next Saturday so that we are fresh for Standard Chartered Marathon. Wish you all a good run. Remember....HAVE FUN. Enjoy the journey as much as reaching the destination.
Good Luck!
Cheers,
Mark
