POWER Runs Friday

!!Today!! I can still feel my sweat droplets starting to ooze out just thinking about what we did today...

It all started when Hiap Wei texted: Hey! I'm going to Lake Club soon! -at 4:02pm.
Followed by a phone call, drafting out what we can do before he has to leave at 6:10pm.

Arrived at the gym (already sweating from the scorching HOT sun) at 5pm. Hiap Wei was already lifting.
Still dazed from the heat and digesting the fact that we're about to run in this heat... I was just about enjoying the gym's air-con while deciding between first run, then Spartacus vs. first Spartacus, then run, Hiap Wei decided we'd run first then Spartacus. Oh, he also mention that it's a short run with 3x stairs.

Battling heat, more like, repressing and ignoring heat, we ran into Lake Gardens, anticlockwise around the lake to the stairs (about 2km), ran up and down 3 times, then back to RLC. All done in about 37mins.

Back at the gym, Feizal was there and Uncle Mike arrive soon after. They took a look at us, back from running, looked out the window at the heat, and back at us, eyes-popping and shook their heads. LOL. I know...only a crazy girl like me would do something crazy like this with Hiap Wei. haha!

Hiap Wei and I did 1 set of Abs in between:
- Decline U-Crunch (50 reps)
- Seated twisted Leg Tuck (50 reps)

Feizal, Hiap Wei and I started my version of Spartacus 3.0 (a combo of selected 5 from 1.0 + 2.0) at 6pm just as Hew walked in:
(From 1.0)
- Goblet Squat (20 reps)
- Mountain Climbers (20 reps x 2 feet)
- Single-arm Dumbbell Swing (15 reps x 2 hands)
- T-PushUp (20 reps)
- Dumbbell Row (20 reps)
(From 2.0)
- Single-Leg, Single-Arm Underhand-Grip Dumbbell Row (20 reps x 2 hands)
- Dumbbell Chop (20 reps x 2 hands)
- Rotational Dumbbell Straight-Leg Deadlift (20 reps x 2 hands)
- Plank Walk Up to Push Up (20 reps x 2 hands)

Hiap Wei had to leave and so, Feizal, Hew and I chatted till about 6:30pm when the sun went down and ran. We ran anticlockwise, up Carcosa, climbed the fence back into Lake Gardens and ran to the stairs. Went up the stairs, and ran back to RLC. Total was about 3.8km, in 25mins.

Back at the gym, I did 3 sets of Squats @ 10kg.
