After a week of mugging for examination, training run resume today. Went to run with my schoolmate to Jurong Hill. Sounds abit wierd, is there such hill exist in singapore? Yes there is! It is actually situated near Jurong Bird Park. The slope is not as steep as compared to kent ridge BUT relatively challenging.
I would say it is not a bad place for training as we cant find much slopes in the west other than kent ridge park and mount faber. For those whom are staying around boon lay area, give jurong hill a try and you could experience sun-rise or sunset during your run. Cheers!

Another great book by Dean Karnazes; I bought this book in amazon but can’t find time reading it due to examination period. I believe this book will inspire a lot of runners especially runners whom love doing endurance race.
This book can be purchased via amazon; you might wish to drop by Kinokuniya to check for availability. Enjoy!
