What?! 1680KM doesn’t seem humanly possible. Do you mean 16.8KM? Even that seems tough to be honest.
Re: Lol, how to loose weight like this
It's a team event running until June, you're not expected to run it all yourself or all in one go. The OP is either a spammer or an idiot, possibly both.

Quite possibly both, OP is posting from a M'sian IP address.

Re: Lol, how to loose weight like this
It could be done. I reckon it's about 200 km around Singapore by road. I used to ride my bicycle on half circuits of Singapore and its was sub 100 km but I didn't ride full north/south/west, only going as far south as commonwealth but fully around top of island via boon lay etc. Did full half circuits of north/south/east though. That was a few years ago when I was in my late 50's. I reckon a marathoner could pull it off in two days. If it were a relay type of affair maybe 12 to 18 hours?

Either way, seems really challenging. I feel like it would take nearly a year of training to be able to complete such an intense course.sundaymorningstaple wrote: ↑Mon, 26 Apr 2021 12:42 pmIt could be done.

Re: Lol, how to loose weight like this
Try to lose fat while building up muscle. In my past I’ve found it much easier to run when I was lighter compared to when I was heavier. Try a mixture of weights and cardio- weights will do your body wonders by making you lose weight fast, and building up muscle, cardio will get you used to running long distances and help build up stamina. Of course, you will need to be eating right as well. How much longer do you have before the event?MonkeyBanana wrote: ↑Mon, 26 Apr 2021 1:04 pmOP is on VPN, anyways my friend making me run wor, we got a team already so split the KM lo, but im kinda fat, so dunno can tahan anot, any more training advice? thanks
