Today I will be doing 4 sets of conditioning exercises (strength). I realised that I am able to keep doing this form of exercise as I am getting fitter now.
I am also trying to finish the Roll of Honour for C Div before going on to B Div ones. The good thing yesterday was I was able to update and complete my writing on George Gandy and my coach Alan Guilder.
Anyway, today, my topic on the Roll of Honour of the Nat Sch Cross Country will cover on M. Maran, the Assumption Sec athlete. Special mention will be given when I discuss on his achievements as a B Division champion etc and his steeplechase timing of 9 min 13 sec held in Kuala Lumpur Asian Track and Field meet. M. Maran nearly broke the 1500m national Record of Serjit Singh in the early 1990s as a youngster. He missed the time by just a whisker of 1 sec. Anyway, his record in steeplechase has been around for nearly two decades. After covering I will discuss on Lian Ruimin and I will also cover on Xu Yaozhi, one of the Chines High Boy who ran and made Chinese High proud. I will be discussing on Chen Fuchun before I mention about one great runner Lin Xiao Kang was.
Today, if I have the time, I will also try to write on some of the most memorable races where I had to challenge the top athletes of Singapore who are right now the under 20 and Men Open nat record holders still.
It was good that Jeffrey responded to my questions.
