Why couldn’t they have sent us decent race maps along with the race packet? Like many of you, I’ve been searching for the route map of Adidas King of The Road for days. For a race of this calibre, I think route maps are a given; runners shouldn’t have to go hunting for them.
Thanks to Jinoe of tabo.ph for posting the maps. Please click here to download race route at takbo.ph
By the way, these are just hand-drawn illustrations. But, at this point, who cares.
I know I promised myself that I wouldn’t be racing every weekend to avoid injury but, much like my kids in a candy store, I simply cannot resist.
One doesn’t skip a race as big as Adidas’ King of the Road nor does one miss a race on her home turf (as Patrick C. advised last week regarding Takbong May Yabang). A few days ago, my good friend Taki of Fort Striders sent a personal invitation to Octoberun Festival on the 26th.
Seems like I’m joining all of the above. (If you’re shaking your head now saying “This girl is going to get herself reinjured” then please say a short prayer for my shins and knees and zip your mouth. No disrespect intended.) I’ll do my best to run safe. Here’s my plan:
Oct 11: Adidas KOTR – 10k race pace
Oct 18: Takbong May Yabang – 10k training pace + 6k easy = 16km
Oct 26: Octoberun Festival – 10k training pace + 7k easy = 17km
Sheesh, I hope this works. For more info on the race, please see my List of Races.
Here’s more info on Octoberun Festival on the 26th. It should be fun and it’s for a good cause, so come and join…
The 4th Octoberun Festival at The Fort
Oh, I know a lot of runners out there who would want to join this one…
