My Race Blog
I got a feeling, deep inside me, that one of these days, sooner rather than later, I will (or already have) turn this blog of mine into a race blog. Why? Basically, I lead a simple life with nothing much to share or dairy. The only interest that I have currently is training for races. Anyway, do not get me wrong, when I used the word "race", it did not meant that I am in to fight for the top spots. My current aim is to be able to complete all "races" in reasonable time. So why used the word "race"? Well, runners referred to all organised competitive runs as races. Some non-competitive runs have also been referred to races...
Of late, lots of Singaporeans have pick up running. You can see lots of joggers everywhere... and surprising, many females are into running as well, just too bad my dear wife is not one of those. The trend is really picking up and of course the major sporting brands and company are taking the opportunity to make a kill. More running shoes, more advance sporting devices, more sponsorship to races etc. One good example is Adidas. They got the so-called adination run across the island and also a run on a Sat whereby joggers enjoy a 30% discount storewide after the run! I joined the last run and inevitably make a purchase of close to a $100. Good business minded there, adidas! Am looking forward the next run to get a new pair of shoes. :p
In the next couple of weeks, I may use this blog as a channel to chart my training. See how first.. haha...
