Back to in-camp training… again!

It’s that time of the year, and I’m not referring to Christmas.

That’s because it’s time to wear green and stop thinking again :)

Ah… Wait, I’m in reservist, so why should I stop thinking? I can think about what food and games to bring in to play next week. Someone’s already bringing Saboteur, so what can I bring? Any suggestions?

My major agenda for this in-camp training is to pass my IPPT. Because I sure as hell don’t want to go for RT. Imagine dragging yourself down to one of the three RT centres located far away from civilisation, immediately after work? No thanks, that would really kill me.

To prepare, I’ve been doing 2.4km runs 3 times a week, although my timings are still too damn poor. I’ve also switched to a new running route, because I hope that a change in scenery will signify a new start? I don’t know. I did a manual measurement of the distance once (it’s a 3-lap of a 4 minute-a-lap route), which brings it up to approximately 2.4 km.

Erm. I hope.

Because my last timing was 12 min 56sec, and I really, really hope that I’ve been covering at least the full 2.4km. Short of running on a stadium track, there’s absolutely no way for me to know.

  1. We should go running together! I is needs to lose weight too, and regain my stamina. XD

  2. LOL you’re back in Singapore already?

  3. Start running stadium rounds man. Its time to get an accurate timing. Wanna run together? I can make you pissed off and you chase me. Haha.

  4. Google Maps calculator tells me that I’m doing approximately 2.54km. Give and take a little distance, and I think it’s really around 2.4km.

    Bah, who needs a puny stadium to run in?
