4 Dec' 06
Amt. of hrs. of sleep: 8 hrs
Nutrition:

A Slice of bread with strawberry jam + Vitamin C
Lunch
Fried rice with pork chops + 3 meat dumplings + chinese tea
Snack
5 red potatoes (boiled) with salt and seaweed + a little of Hershey chocolates + Jackfruits, korean pear and strawberries

Training venue: Bishan Stadium
Training time: 8-11am
Schedule: Long run [Bishan stadium-MacRitchie Reservoir-6times of upslope run(100%)-Bishan stadium]
Reflections: It was a fine weather for training today. Although I woke up a little late, which resulted in a late breakfast, I managed not to vomit during training. The run to MacRitchie Reservoir was a little fast, and the upslope run was extremely tiring. This was followed by a relatively relaxing jog back to Bishan stadium.

20 Nov' 06
Amt. of hrs. of sleep: 7 hrs
Nutrition:
Breakfast
A Slice of bread with kaya + apple
Lunch
Rice with beansprouts, beef rendang, spinach & curry cabbage + 100 plus
Dinner
Rice with charsiew & xiaobaicai + apple juice
Training venue: School
Training time: 8-11am
Schedule: 150m x 20 [ timings all below 45 secs.]
Reflections: Woke up a little late today, which resulted in a rather late breakfast. I vommitted 3/4 into the run. It seems that I really have to eat much earlier than what I have previously have. It was a hot day.....as always, only to it rain after training on my way back home. The numerous sets are really tiring, but I remind myself that the satisfaction only comes later after the run. Also am aware that I should run/sprint with larger strides. Aim to be more conscious about it during running. Need to be more focused on positive thoughts, not wallowing myself in depressing ones.

17 Nov' 06
Amt. of hrs. of sleep: 8 hrs
Nutrition:
Breakfast
A Slice of bread with 2 bananas
Lunch
Rice with Kangkong, longbeans & Soy sauce chicken + Apple juice
Dinner
Rice with ginseng double-boiled soup + Chyesim stir-fried with fishcake

Training venue: School
Training time: 2-5pm
Schedule: 10km route [school-Bishan stadium-school]
Reflections: The weather was really hot today....unlike the cool weather we were blest with last training. I felt quite physically energetic. Vommiting last training made me realised that I just had to eat lunch at least 1 1/2 hour before training. I lack mental strength and also need to get used to running longer distances such as 10km. Hope that things will turn out better the next training!!

15 Nov' 06
Amt. of hrs. of sleep: 8 hrs
Nutrition:
Breakfast
2 Slices of bread with jam
Lunch
Rice with carrots & rosemary chicken + Apple juice
Dinner
Mushroom soup with bread + Potato salad + Lamb Chops with baked beans, coleslaw & fries + 100 plus

Training venue: School
Training time: 2-5pm
Schedule: 3km route x 2 + 1 round of graveyard
Reflections: Training was generally tough. I vomited 10 minutes into the run. I guess it just shows that I will have to eat meals much earlier before training as I am prone to vomit. A passing shower made the weather cool, although it was in the afternoon. Felt opptimistic about training, despite feeling a tad too bloated from lunch.
