Recommended Training for 2.4km run

[email protected]_arms SG

I desperately need to just pass my 2.4… I can do everything in napfa, EVERYTHING accept running. Whenever I am running I feel like what is the **ing point? Its tiring and there’s no benefit. I like doing the other stations cos there is not much energy required to do them, I perform very well in other stations accept 2.4. I see no further point in NAPFA because I aint gotta do NS anyway. Then I get depressed sometimes cos I feel I have no friends cos I am fat and I can’t do my 2.4, my only aim for doing 2.4 would prolly to be accepted by people? What is wrong with me?

hahah i'm a natural silver medalist.......but the thing is i'm of those natural athletic build.......i was a gold medalist.....the thing is mind over body. u must tell yourself to give your best during the last 1.2km or 800m and never every walk for long period of time. b4 u run, expand your lungs by breathing in hard deep breaths. it helps. drink lots of water an hr b4 u run and drink slips to quench thirst after that. prevent KO if u over-bia. training wise.......do ten km runs over a period of 1 month twice a week and then over next 2 months once a week, u might even hit gold and confirmed silver. timing for 10 km run is under an hr. that's the guardsmen training though.

as an athelete...my advice for u is to try to run non stop for 6 rounds...dun bother abt the timings...slow jog will b fine too..once u r able to run non stop for 6 rounds...den get ur timing...find out hw long u r takin for each lap...n later on set urself targets per lap...slowly cuttin dwn the time...

PS: dun rush...coz if u rush n u dun get ur expected results u'll soon hv low morale....

u no need to go stadium and train. Listen to my advice u no need to run even 2km oso. u take 5kg of rice bag put it inside ur bag and run up and down the staircase o of your block till the highest level for like 3 times. go up 12 storey down another 12 so its equal 24.
24 times 3 is equal to 72 storey. its like walking up a staircase of westin stamford till the rooftop!!!

when u do this even gold can!

tt is not necessarily the best form of trg for 2.4. it may be good for endurance and cbt fitness.
