Damn.. I'm sick. According to some, its coz i'm over training and not giving my body enough rest. Possibly, or it could be i didn't train for the last two days and my body was protesting.
Anyway, started with a runny nose yesterday. Then thought i caught a cold. The runny nose lasted all day while i was at Turf Club helping Dad. And when i came home, it still wasn't any better. And i was worried. Coz i really wanted to do the Tanjong Beach swim today. And i haven't trained in the last two days. So i decided to sleep early and pray hard that it would be sufficient. But, i tossed and turned all night and could barely sleep. Finally fell asleep at close to 3am. And considering i had to be up by 6.30 in the morning, i figured i'll probably miss the alarm and not wake up. But before the alarm went off, i was up. I hit the snooze button a couple of times and had a mini debate with myself as to whether i should go for training or not. Finally, i was awake. And decided, what the heck, will just go for the swim first, if i feel lousy, will skip the run today.
Did a easy 6 laps, ave abt 10min per 400m. So i guess that is about my usual pace. And after that, i felt alright, so went for the run. The nose threatened to get runny a couple of times, but after the first 2km, it went off until after the run. Did a 4.89km run. 28min 25s. About the same speed as my last Thursday run. But considering i swam about 2.4k before the run, i'm rather pleased. Just that i can't last.. Hee.. Last km was struggling.. Oh well.. Going to take a short nap now to rest before the relatives come over..
