Week 12: 21-25 April 2026 : From Rail to Pipeline Trail

A Runner’s Week in Verse

Coconut drink at 2km mark is a life saver

Tuesday was rhythmic, steady, and strong,

I found my hip drive and hummed a song.

With sea shanties playing, I felt quite elite,

Clocking five kilometers on light, nimble feet.


But Thursday was brutal, a "misty" ordeal,

The heat made the bitumen heavy and real.

Defeat started calling at the two-k mark,

As the tropical jungle turned humid and dark.


Yet Saturday’s sunrise brought a fresh start,

With cold coconut water to gladden my heart.

Over nine hilly kilometers, the pipeline was passed,

The "9km milestone" is conquered at last!
