TLog: a taper variation

Under any other circumstances, I would have gone out on the streets for my taper runs, after all, it had been two years since I last visited Macau. But being stuck in a conference and seeing the low lying mist (smog?), I decided to hit the treadmill instead.

Four Seasons hotel is only one year old, and like most new hotels in Macau, it is ostentatious and opulent. The most recent hotels are bigger, taller and louder than those built more than 2 years ago. Being away from the old Macau town has its advantages.

The gym at Four Seasons is huge. About 10 treadmills, half a dozen cycling machines and weights etc. The gym overlooks the adjacent Venetian hotel, Hyatt and the Hard Rock hotel (didn't realize they'd diversified).

Tue: 1k warm up, 3x1k at 6 min pace, 4 min recovery, 1k cool down
Wed: 10 k easy at HR 145

Could remember when was the last time I ran on the treadmill. It's boring, but fortunately, better treadmills have TV screens mounted on them. So that helped to pass time.

Traveling back to SIN today.
