Trouble Tuesday!

Arrived at RLC at 3:30pm. Slept till 5:35pm, since I only had 2 hours of sleep last night.
Reminder to self: NESCAFE is BAD!
Reached the gym around 5:45pm, just in time to catch Jonathon's invitation to join him and his mom for a run!
Turned out to be a combined run.

Since Jon's and my run is on Sunday, Feizal suggested we do a 10km.
So a bunch of us started off - Jon, Aunty Sook Lan, Feizal, Hew, Yong Wei, Mark and I.
We ran anticlockwise to the stairs up the Carcosa, squeezed through the fence back into Lake Gardens, and continued on to the Deer Park. At this point, due to time constraint, Mark and Yong Wei left the group and headed back to RLC. The five of us carried on past the Deer Park, circled the Planetarium (I never knew its existence!) ...UP SOME STAIRS which totally killed me after that.... I was lagging behind as we ran past the National Muslim Museum, down towards Dataran Merdeka, cut through Padang Merdeka, past Royal Selangor Club, crossed some roads and finally that long familiar road back to RLC!

Soles, toe, knees and ankles were aching... Aunty Sook Lan and I finally made it back to the club. The guys pretty much sprinted all the way after the stairs!
Arrived back at 7:10pm. Exactly an hour. But I didn't think it was 10km. Probably 8.
So 8 it is! 8km in one hour.... Not good :(
Well, Jon and I decided to target 10km within 1:05. That's our goal this Sunday!

Back at the gym, after gulping down 5 glasses of H2O:
All mats in a row, Hew, Feizal and I did stretches.
Subsequently, the famous 8-course + 2 (we added a new workout!) ABs Workout:
- Basic Crunch

- Bicycle
- Touch Leg Raises
- U-Roll Crunch
- Right Hip Raises
- Left Hip Raises

Additional (15 reps each)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After some leg stretches, more ABs Workout with Jon and Feizal (Alternating between 3 stations):
- Decline AB Bench Crunch (50 reps x 2 sets)
- Seated Leg Pull-In (50 reps x 2 sets)
- Cable Crunch (14kgs - 15 reps x 2 sets)

Swam 1km of Freestyle - 40laps x 25m in 25mins + 2 laps cool down.

-End-
