On a friday night, 7th November 2008, 1 month away from the Singapore Standard Chartered Marathon 2008. I decided to start my 1 month crash course training program for my upcoming 4th Marathon. If it was my 1st attempt, I would be very anxious, however, I am a little bit more experienced than before and able to plan for it better.<\/p>\n
It was initially planned for a 10km run, with Jack Lan, however, being out of fitness training (gym or running) for about 1-2 months, my physical conditioning wasn’t that ideal and we only ran about 7km. It’s a clear sign that I had to run more mileage to bring back up my physical conditioning again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Well, just to share with fellow marathoners\/runners, this would be a good few tips to prepare for your marathon training.<\/p>\n
(1) Lose some weight during these 4 weeks – my target is to lose 5kg in 4 weeks<\/p>\n
(2) Gym training – muscle toning and strength training for the knees and legs<\/p>\n
(3) Running – plan and gain the mileage over the next 4 weeks<\/p>\n
(4) Diet – don’t eat too much !<\/p>\n
For the next coming week, I would have to clock in more runs before hitting my 15km target next weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Staying focused for my marathon, keeping fit and healthy and keeping my mind clear again from the market turmoil and market uncertainties – having such runs, exercises and training helps you beyond whatever you can imagine.<\/p>\n
Keep fit and healthy folks !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
