jus had my ippt last monday. managed to clock 9 m 25 s for my 2.4, my best timing so far (although i know this is chicken feet for some)
wanna maintain and even improve on it! am thinking of doing fartlek trainings every other day, and normal runs, including long distance ones (to prep for AHM) on the rest of the days. any recommendations / advises?
anyway after my runs, more often than not, i remain feeling hot inside, and my heartbeat does not return to the resting rate, even one hour later. is this normal? i do my warmups and cool downs, although i usually do statics after the run. -
that is excellent timing for someone that are no longer in the army.Originally posted by wuming78:jus had my ippt last monday. managed to clock 9 m 25 s for my 2.4, my best timing so far (although i know this is chicken feet for some)

in terms of training for 1/2M, i suggest u get some training books on Marathon or from the webby, go through it and see how the actual ways of training should be...
what the army teaches you for 1/2M brings you to a certain level. What happens after(if you want to improve further)), you have to do much more. I have not been trained in the Army on 1/2M before, but i guess the training is different from what other(serious runner) is doing.
Basically 1 week(7 days), runs for 6 days and i day rest. mixture of interval training, fartlek, long distance running, easy run, cross training(swim/cycle/gym), tempo run etc.
so far, i experience on a few times when heartbeat not returning to resting rate after a long run(basically on races) and i feel terrible. Basically i attribute it to no proper warm down. After chiong the last part of the race/run, we are suppose to jog slowly for a few minutes to slow down, but we tend to choose walking instead, which is not recommended. A sudden stop in activities, the heart cant take it and the heart rate will remains high.
After a run, ur heart rate should drop to normal rate within 10mins. If it takes more than 10 mins, it means you had push too hard during the run. If you still about 70-80% after 30mins, you better find a place to rest or seek help. Take more water and find a cool place to rest. For me, if my heart rate dont reduce 5mins after the run, i will find a place to rest immediately. -
most probably i will be going for the Milk Run on 3 July, starting time is 3:30pm.
gonna treat this as a training for HOT weather program. -
nothing dissapointing than a bad run
-
It was a WET run this morning.
-
any suggested regime for training for half marathon, while at the same time not neglecting my speed training?
-

On the mile
The mile and its place in history. We do it because we can.
The mile holds a special place in the annals of sports. It was, until 1954, one of the greatest sporting mental blocks ever recorded. It was believed at that time that the human body was physically incapable of running it in under four minutes. We now know that that was false but it was this myth that prevented many a gifted athlete from doing what Roger Bannister did that fateful morning. Their performance was dictated by what their mind told them.
The Bannister Effect is a well-known phenomenon in sports. After Roger Bannister broke the four-minute barrier, John Landy did the same in a matter of weeks. By the end of the year, a number of athletes followed suit. When all the athletes realised that it was indeed possible to achieve a particular goal, the last and greatest barrier that is the mind is broken and they were able to achieve what was previously thought impossible.
It is this very myth and mindset-changing ethos that would enable sportspeople in Singapore to move beyond their comfort zones and take risks to achieve all that they can. The mile barrier is present in all sports ? it is up to the athletes and the communities that support them to help to build up the iron attitude and break whatever mental barriers that may exist. -
"We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we enjoy it and cannot help ourselves. The more restricted our society and work become, the more necessary it will be to find some outlet for this craving for freedom. No one can say, 'You must not run faster than this, or jump higher than that.' The human spirit is indomitable."
