Rain, Rain, Rain!

Had to cancel my planned track session today as it's raining cats and dogs outside now. Just got back sending one of the staff here to pick up his new ride, the good old Honda EX5. I think this is the most trusted model of all time by far. Had to drive all the way to Selayang to pick up the bike, luckily didnt take long to find the place except being stuck in the traffic jam.

Earlier, me and Bernard were at Aaron's house to help move his aquarium base. We only managed to move the aquarium last time we were here. Also moved 2 TVs & two single bed mattress to give away to his staff. Well the base was just as heavy and due to the size, someone had to sit on the floor of the van. And it was Aaron, who insisted on it. Not me or Bernard's fault. : ))

Yesterday, we were at G Tower along Jalan Tun Razak to do a pest treatment. There were 48 rooms to be treated at one of the floors and there are 2 more floors which he needs to do. However, it was not ready yet at the time we were there. Anyway, the building will only be launched sometime early next year. We were informed 3 of the floors will be dedicated hotel rooms and the rest will be offices.

Should I leave now or wait for the rain to stop? I'm going to be stuck in the traffic anyway if I go back now. Might as well go for my dinner first!

New Job and Track Training

Just started my new job at a pest control company, TIMES PEST CONTROL.

Set up by my friend only a few months back. Since it's a small company, basically got to do pretty much everything, cover seas and mountains. Ok, at least not catching rats with my bare hands just yet. LOL! Anyway, if any one of you or friends who are in need of pest exterminator, do give me a call at 012-2393077 (work no) or Bernard at 012-2788677/012-2279377. Thanks! Termites problem, Mosquitoes, Cockcroaches, Rats, etc....call, call! I'll bring my tennis racquet over....LOL!

Managed to hit the track in Kampung Pandan yesterday. Have not trained on track for many months although I did a 3200m race on track in Melbourne recently. Right now, I am trying to correct my running form and also improve my speed as I've been running too much long slow distance or LSD in short. I didnt do much yesterday since it was my first training on track for a long time. Trying to build up the training slowly. Did a 20 mins warm up (about 4400m), followed by a few 100m strides out before attempting on a 5 x 400m with about 90s jog (or 100m). Well it wasn't what I've used to do during my younger years on track, but it sure is tough coming back into track training. Old man liaw, can't do too much! But I was pretty happy with the time recorded yday, averaging around 78s. Met a Pacesetters member there and did a few laps with him for cool down. Will probably fit in a track workout once a week in my pogram from now onwards.

Next Race: Maybe Malakoff 12km. Not too far out from where I stay.
