Thoughts

Today’s run sure was interesting. It was the last day of my cardio workout before next week when Phase 6 of my training will start. I wanted to have a long run today, indeed I did. Well bear with me ..

Every time before a run, I would usually empty my bladder and bowel as you know, having stomach contractions and the urge to go to the toilet during your run can really ruin your running mojo

Well I thought I had done my so called ‘business’ but halfway around 22mins into my run, ooh gosh I had a stomach ache, hastily urging me to visit the nearest loo.

Well I had to decide either to go back home or use the nearest public toilet. I don’t want this fine sunny perfect day for running to be spoilt, so I decided the latter. I don’t mind using public toilet, but the nearest one is the train station and I really hate such public toilets compared to the ones found at stadiums and buildings. I had no choice

Train stations public toilets are the worse of the lot, wet, stinky and dirty due to huge influx of passengers that passes through the station who happens to use the ammeneties there, and most of the ‘uncivilized’ ones take the facilities for granted and don’t accommodate such ammeneties for the next user. They used it, crap on it and leave it be.

It doesn’t also help that I’ve been approached or been fixated with horny stares so many times by perverted old men in such places

The moment I entered the toilet it was fully booked, so I waited. Then the handicapped cubicle was free when an old man came out. Hmm no handicapped people around, so I used it, then to my horror there was no lock!

What the fcuk, the very important vital part of doing your ‘business’ is to have a certain privacy, and may I highlight it was at Admiralty SMRT station. Don’t they have QC checks every fortnight or monthly for such defects?

Ok fine … I came out and another cubicle happen to be free, so I used it. Again to my horror. No toilet paper, a large pool of something on the floor which looks like spit on and the water tap in the cubicle was broken off.

Oh my lord, but I really had to ‘go’, so I suck it up and did my business. Well I had to literally coax myself to do my business as it seems after seeing the bad condition of the toilet, my shit moved up into my rectum

Well after that, I washed as clean as possible as I could and continued my run. When I got back home, I had a really long and clean shower
