After 3 days of rest, I started to run again. Today I had to run on a treadmill because it rained again. It was a short run of 5 km at 11.0 km/hr.
In past years, I mostly do maintenance training during December with low mileage (5 km). December gives me the channce to rest and recover from the past 11 months of training and racing. Normally I start base training in January gradually increasing mileage and the frequency of runs.
However this year I won't be doing maintenance training in December but will be doing base training a month earlier. The main reason is the KL International Marathon is only 3 months away. Only 3 months to prepare for a marathon (my first one).
You can bet I will be bringing my running attire and shoes to Vietnam. I will be there from 10 to 26 Dec, arriving in Hanoi on 10 Dec. It is now winter in Northern Vietnam. The temperatures ranges from 15 to 21 deg. C, - perfect temperatures for running.
There will less frequent updates and mabe none at all until I return to Malaysia.
Have a good and safe December everyone!

Enjoy your break! Btw, I didnt realise you had not run a full marathon before. Hmmm.. now I wonder if I am being too optimistic and adventerous by deciding to run the full in the upcoming KLIM... but I've started the training so lets just see what happens.
