New Recipe





Baked a new cake. Yum yum.... nice and SWEET!!!

CRANBERRY ORANGE CAKE

Made a couple - gave one to church office and kept the other to gobble down heheh. Which means longer runs to burn off the extra calories haha.

But hey, its WORTH it!!! Check it out.... fuel for my runs ....

Run DONE!!

OK, completed the Army Half Marathon this morning..... not too happy with timing although I improved it by 16 minutes. I wanted to cut it by an additional 15 - 20 minutes.

Soooo many people blocking the way, had to weave round them haha. I should have gone earlier and started out in front. Lesson learnt.... next year, I'll do that.

OK, so rest today and start training tomorrow for next run - Mizuno Run in September. That should be 'easy' as it's only 10 miles. Need to work up to the Marathon in December so no lazing around.

My goal is to cut my PB by an hour so have to train hard man!!! 3 months to go.....

Baked it and ATE IT!!



OK, pics not so clear - wifey not around to help me take the pictures so I had to make do with my phone camera sigh....
But, couldn't resist eating - so I've gobbled down a quarter of my cake already.... better give some away before I finish it all off tonight!!! Then I'll need to run more than the 21 km at this Sunday's Army Half Marathon to burn off the calories!!!! sigh
Ahhh... I just bought some Agar Agar this afternoon so I'll make that - it should 'distract' me from my choc cake haha. .... but still lots of SUGAR :)

Run this Sunday

OK, count down to the Army Half Marathon this Sunday.... been running almost everyday to keep the pace.... so should be no prob.
Worried after the recent news of the death of the fit guy at the recent tri.... so better not push myself man!!! Tho, I want to improve my timing. Trying for a PB and working towards the year end marathon.
Now my other indulgence..... think I'll bake a chocolate cake tonight... craving... Made a Kueh Sri Muka a couple days back.... it was YUM!!! (if I do say so myself haha). NOw getting over the Overodse of coconut milk and now need chocolate high haha.
