@turk -- nde ko na lam anu na nangyari sa planong mtc running club..

 

@spy_der_man -- what happened bro? over fatigue? kulang sa hydration/cooldown? dapat ata nag ESpa ka after, baka may "init" na nde mailabas kaya ganun (joke). baka medyo nabigla lang yung body mo since sabi mo nga, it was your 1st 21k.

haha dapat ba after the run diretso agad..friday before the run nag NPS ako sa makati..after run united 3..mag fusiaa na lang ako..dapat ba magwarm up before a 21k run kasi yung iba kong katabi sa starting line pawis na..i read kasi na before the run kelangan sobrang relax lang and carbo loading the day before the run..im totally new talaga sa running im just trying to push my self sa limits ko..kumbaga one of my bucket list ang 21k 42k saka yung ultramarathon BDM...just sharing..

@spyderman Well, Im really not good in running... but for my experience, warm up exercises is needed... rotation of knees arms head and body... and make sure you have walk around 500m to loosen up your leg muscle before the run....

then when running constant easy pace lang ako... 30mins then walk around 2mins... after nun 3-5mins jog with 1-2 mins walking just to finish the race... then far more important as I learned from a friend who is a coach at Runrio is the stretching AFTER the race... super ok un stretching talagang nakakawala ng fatigue sa legs

 

So far ok naman time ko... 7-7.5 mins per 1km ang pace but of course still need to improve

 

I really like to do the 42k or ultra.... but after my 32k sa runrio this november... siguro I will concentrate on fortifying the first 10k and 15k of my run... so deciding to do 10k only next year and develop good speed there

 

Cheers!

@spy_der_man -- yes bro, cooldown/stretching AFTER the run is as important as warmup/stretching before the actual race, as it will help in the recovery process and prevent injuries. kala ko din dati basta takbo lang eh, nde pala. bro Turk made some good advices on his post. aside from stretching, make sure to eat/drink din after nung race. yung ESpa gnagawa ko yun probably 1week before ng run (pang alis lang ng stress) then 1-2 days after ng run. ang kaso, naii-skip ko yung massage part so wala din nyahaha

Chevy 25k ....

 

3hrs and 25mins

Things that could go wrong before a run :

• I slept late that night (around 9:45PM) as i was hooked watching the living dead season 1 movie series and had to finish it on one day
• 10K race starts at at 5:20AM and woke up at 4AM, should have been 3AM but since i slept late then that is the price i pay
• Walked for 10-15mins going outside the subdivision as there was barely a tryk at that time roving around
• Taxi missed a turn that cost me 5 mins. thus I arrived at the race proper late and the run has already started
• The rain was also pouring at that time thus all the runners were drenched
• Also had a hard time finding the baggage area as it was number coded, i know it was organized and orderly than the usual when i claimed my bag though
• Thus i was a good 10-20 mins late for the start of the race

The good side of the run :

• My first wind run was good as i was able to pass thru several if not quite a few runners who were walking or had a run-walk pace and it lasted til i reached the 5K distance
• The 10K route included the Kalayaan fly-over which was not part of the original route when i reviewed the map prior after i got my race kit together with the singlet when i registered at Shangri-la Mall back in Sept.
• It was raining so i did not have to worry about the heat
• I only stopped at 1 water station, took a banana and a 100 plus instead of the water
• My pace run after was also relatively better as i continuously pass thru some of the runners
• Still had the burst of energy to take my sprint run at the finish line
• Final time was 1:19:46 so if i minus 15 mins then 1:04:46 or it could have been better and relatively closer to my best time way back at around 53mins.
• There were also lots of freebies given and i bought a black Soleus shirt for 500 bucks that i felt was very sulit from the quality of the fabric, to its look and its feel when i wear it

All in all it was a good run but if would probably be better to sleep early and wake up early to arrive on-time. I know this is not my first, arriving late on a race run that is but am hoping that i've finally learned my lessons this time and make this the last
