Change of Plans

The whole ICT routine has somewhat screwed up a bits of my training program. The company's great, there's no doubt about it. It feels really good to be amongst old faces and in that all to familiar uniform all again. The one good thing, pertaining to my training program that is, is the availability of a rather well equipped gym just 20 steps away from where I sit now. I should probably take this time to built up some strength and compensate the lack of long distance training with some resistance training. I ain't too sure how it'll turn out but that's the only alternative I have for now. One can't have the cake and eat it at the same time I guess. I should probably write a bit about the run I did with the guys here yesterday do. It needn't be a long paragraph, just a couple of words (maybe sentences...) will suffice. The run was hot, humid and painful. The pace at which we were running at was slightly faster then what I am used to and the weather, by golly... the darn bloody weather, was most definitely not what I was used to. We ran out from our camp, through the underpass into ECP and U-turned at the Chalets just after the Seafood Centre. Words fail, yet again, the agony I endured during that short yet painful run. On a lighter note however, I think the run went rather well and it was fun, in a sick, twisted sort of way. After the run, we proceeded with this "hot-cold" treatment. I do recall hearing about such a treatment before but I ain't sure just how effective it is in helping the body recover (faster). Moving on to the other updates, the trip plans are (I think...) coming along pretty fine. It is getting a bit frustrating sourcing out for cheaper deals when I last recalled that being PART of the contractual agreement (Or was it restricted only to the company matching the lowest rates in the market... whatever it is... its pissing the hell out of me...). Sometimes, I feel and this is just a personal opinion, even when one is paid to do the job, it pays off in the long term if the individual in question is more forthcoming in advice and takes some initiative in moving things along. Its almost 1.40 pm now, so I am going to get some rest before hitting the gym and kicking off the day. Till the next entry :)
