My 1st attempt @ 5km

Last learnted that SMRT Run would be 5km instead of 3.2km last Fri.

I have never taken part any run longer than 3.2km, so this will be my 1st.
After resting for 3 days or rather struggle with myself internally whether to go on for the run, I finally set out to try my 1st 5km run last night.

And here's the summary of the workout:
Workout: Regular Run
Date: 11-Oct-2010
Distance: 4.96 km
Duration: 37:57

The timing guideline I was given by Stephen Neo was 30-35min for an average runner.
And so, i thought I have done well for my 1st attempt. Surprisingly it doesnt seem that long (distance), just my own pace and continous running. Not even panting @ the end of the run.

So, I would be aiming for 35min next time.

I have been jogging for almost 2 weeks by now.
And during this period, I experimented with different type of running attire and introduced music into my running.

When I showed Alice & Candy the photos, they couldn't stop laughing at my before attire. Well... I just thought it would be funny to see the BEFORE & AFTER effect. hee hee.

Does attire have effect on personal performance?
The asnwer is ... YES.
