Daily Life: Happy birthday Singapore

Aug 9 Singapore celebrates its 47th birthday. Since its the nation birthday its a public holiday and i took this time to go for a swim. This is the first swim in a week since my injury on Sunday after my run. After my run on sunday there is blister on my left feet which prevent me from running further until it gets harden.

I don't know if it is due to my running form or to the weather as I started around 4.40pm instead of around 5.30pm. I thought the ground will not be too hot and i guess i was wrong. The injury also also my left leg to have cramps and later on the second day, my right leg also got cramp after waking up. I think it could be due to a lack of warm down after my runs. My aqua shoes also played a small part as i no longer has any protection from the hot ground.

I decided to put in my old shoe sole to see if the heat can be reduced and also start my run in the morning or late at night (after 6pm). But as this is the ghost month, it could be a challenge to run too early or too late as other 'things' may also be running around and it is not wish to run into them.
