Early Morning Run Upper Bukit Timah - Singapore Zoo



This morning,3rd August, I made an appointment with Loo Kwong, my friend from primary school, (40 years !) who is an avid runner too and we both set off from his place at Hume Road (Upper Bukit Timah) and ran all the way to the Zoo at Mandai Road, a distance of 11.03 km as measured by the Nike band. My pace was 6mins 29secs per km and time taken was 1 hour 11mins.It was a nice cool morning when we set off at 6.12am. I wans't sure of the route and we made up the route along the way Originally we wanted to run to Johore Bahru (!).Only sanity and lack of a passport stopped us. Next week we have Roti Canai at
J.B.!
The SportsBand works well and is easy to activate and upload. You can register an account and upload your running log under the website www.nikeplus.com. There are forums there,10km to marathons worldwide and even challenges you can set to your vitrual or real world running friends. Its a grand welcome to the world Globalised Running !
