We did a 10K run today in the reservoir area in Singapore just north of us. Very nice and lush forest. There were hiking trails/running trails all spread out. Lots of people. The reservoir itself is being used for kayaking and canoing practice for clubs. And the two most posh private golf clubs are located just on both sides of this place. Man, I don't remember when was the last time I sweat like that; I was soaked from top to bottom; my running shorts was soaked with sweat. When I stopped, sweat dripped down from the end of my shorts to the ground. The place was hilly too; up and down. Because of the down pour from this morning, the trail was a bit muddy and slippery. But overall, nice to be able to breath fresh forest air vs breathing Shanghai style air.
When I got back to friend's apartment to cool down, I felt embarrassed. When I got up ready to leave, the chair was wet and there was a pool of sweat at where I sat as well as where my feet were. Yikes.
Silly me, I didn't take the water bottle and waist pack like I was ready to; but my iron-wife convinced me not to; I was dying of thirst after 5K. Sweat too much specially in the tropic. Must not let her convince me again :-P
