hero workouts

'we did murph today. in short its a 1 mile run, followed by 100 pullups (i scaled down to rows), 200 pushups and 300 squats, and finally followed by another 1 mile run. i did it in divisions of 10 rows, 20 pushups and 30 squats. this workout is in honor of lieutenant michael murphy who died in afghanistan on june 28th 2005. '

'i came home and really just needed to eat. i mean wads a hero workout, without a hero after-meal right? but i was dumped at home alone. and was a tad bit lazy to cook. so, my thought process was-carbs, protein, fibre, fat-open fridge-pasta and sweet potato, eggs, cabbage, olive oil. throw everything into pot, and eat my massive plate of pasta.' 

'so another hero thing i wanted to mention is, now the people who have always dreamt of running two full marathons in 24 hours, can realize their dreams. bsn have announced the date of their run-11th october, and surprise surprise, the ever-famous kl standard chartered falls on the 12th of october. so all you runn-addicts, run-tards, can now do 2 full marathons in 24 hours. so who's up for the challenge? unfortuantely-not me haha. but i think that should definitly classify as a hero workout. maybe if i do it, they can name it after me-like the melissa workout. wishful thinking.'

 

'i can't say which is better because i've only joined the kl standchartrun before. i must say though kl standchart is really well organized. the route was good. they have more than sufficient water stations and really good medical services. people speak of user experience, this is real good running experience.

despite not having participated in the bsn putrajaya run before, but having ran in putrajaya previously, the experience there is really like non-other. maybe because the roads are pretty deserted, so you really feel like you own the entire road. your territory, your road, all you. and the scenery is pretty. i previously did a night run there, and the night lights are so captivating. the view just makes running so easy. '



so how now brown cow? some tough decisions to be made.
