Back to the starting line: TM Fan Run 2016

The end of Ramadhan marks a new running chapter for me. After one month of good rest, it is time to get going again with higher hopes and bigger goals (Hint: another ultramarathon coming really soon!). Coincidently, 2016 has passed it’s second half and so it is also a good time to reflect on the progress of our New Year Resolutions ; How far are we from reaching our goals? Have we completed any New Year Resolutions yet? Have we even started working towards our goals yet?

IMG_7480IMG_48922014 vs 2016. Same race, different venue, different distance

Time is of the essence. When you have limited time to work towards your goals, every mileage and work out counts. Not wanting to waste another moment, I signed up to run for 10KM in the TM Fan Run. Plus, signing up for an event in the midst of Eid celebration made me feel less guilty about enjoying the high calorie foods such as rendang and cookies.

IMG_4917Who says runners don’t celebrate Eid? This was our carbo-loading on the night before the run!

Lining up at the starting line, I realised how much I missed the smell of the morning air before dawn, the rays of light during sunrise, and the immediate jolt of caffeine and sugar in my system. I missed the cliché, annoying pop songs played while some random instructor did an aerobic warm up on stage, the buzzing crowd building up the excitement, the sight of your running crew and a few familiar faces. There was nothing quite like the feeling on race day!

As soon as the gun goes off, I took a deep breath, ready to give my best shot. The route was mildly easy with minimal elevation. Starting from Dataran Putrajaya, we passed by the usual landmarks if you have been running in Putrajaya regularly such as PICC and Persiaran Perdana Bridge, so there was not much excitement about the route. Overall, the 10K route was short of a few hundred meters but by my books, I ended up running my fastest 10K anyways by shaving 10 minutes of my previous personal best record.

So far, it looks like my running calender is off to a pretty good start. I’m feeling rather optimistic about the second half of 2016, with more races and work outs in the near future!

5 TIPS TO STAY ENERGIZED DURING FASTING MONTH


Often we feel lethargic during the month of Ramadhan due to lack of nutrients. Ramadhan is a month of worshiping God that is portrayed in many ways; like tarawikh prayers, reciting Quran, zikr, doing good deeds, charity and more. Performing some deed can drain your energy out. A popular question for muslims; Is there a way to make it up to this? There are more deeds I would love to do but how do I stay energized when fasting? Come! Let’s find out how. 

 

1. Eat energy booster food

Foods that is high in fiber, proteins and good fats (e.g: obtained from fish, nuts, coconut oil, and etc.). These kind of foods will slower your hunger and boost you body energy. Nevertheless, you still have to keep a balanced diet and moderate. Avoid eating unhealthy oily food although they are easily accessible at bazaars. Go for quality, not quantity. Bake instead of fry. Drink plenty of juices or eat a lot of fruits to keep body hydrated and nutrient. Be picky with what you eat.

It has been mentioned by Prophet ṣallallāhu 'alayhi wa sallam (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) regarding healthy eating habits: “A human being fills no worse vessel than his stomach. It is sufficient for a human being to eat a few mouthfuls to keep his spine straight. But if he must (fill it), then one third of food, one third for drink and one third for air.” [Ibn Majah]

Break your fast with a light and balanced iftar

2. Drink plenty of water

Inadequate of water can lead to dehydration. If you’re not keeping the right level of water in your body, your body will struggle. How do you do it during Ramadhan? Here’s how:

  • 2 glasses at suhur
  • 4 glasses between iftar and suhur
  • 2 glasses at iftar

Nevertheless, you should know your body needs of water intake everyday. Here’s a chart you should know on water intakes for your body needs. Drink fruit juices to add more nutrient for your body.

3. Shake it up

Maintain your metabolism during Ramadhan as it may decline due to lesser food intake. Sitting too much or less movement makes your body more lethargic. Try walking around or do a mini workout to regain your activate your body energy. You can try yoga, pick up dumbells or do light stretches. Just get up and do something else shortly to improve blood circulation. Even preparing your own healthy meals for breakfast can keep you alive! Find and try out new healthy recipes during Ramadhan.

Dumbells for Office

 

4. Socialize around

Distract the tiredness by small chatting with your colleagues and friends. Socializing minimizes stress, boosts brainpower, and rids away the fatigue. While you chat, don’t forget to stick a smile and laugh more as it stimulates energy and improves mood. You might want to add some entertainments like playing games for a suggestion, just to be free from stress.

5. Sleep tight

Get a good night sleep to improve your energy level for the next day. How can you achieve that? Sleep soundly by turning off electronic gadgets and make sure your bedroom is cool with the right temperature. Make sure you get at least 6 hours of sleep a day despite the late night Tarawih prayers and early morning suhoor. If you can nap during daytime, you could do that to ensure your body gets enough rest. Do not compromise your sleep.

Keep a healthy diet and ibadah this Ramadhan. Get your fitness and ibadah routines work hand in hand harmoniously for a better wellness.

The Weekend Runner: Business As Usual

One day I woke up early in the morning after going for a night run with a major headache and feeling extremely hungry. I went to work groggy and half-asleep. I quickly realised that I was dehydrated and did not monitor what I was eating during suhoor. Lack of sleep contributed to the problems too. Major adjustments must be made in order for me to continue with my work out and running routine for the month of Ramadhan.

 

Just like picking up a skill, saving up, reading, and many other good things in life, long-distance running is built on consistency. Without regular practice and maintenance I will loose the endurance and stamina built over a few months ago. Plus, I have less than 4 months left until I run my first full marathon at Standard Chartered KL Marathon, so I have to make every mile count.

 

11401469_496160573875835_7341779056970315187_n

Can’t stop won’t stop!

 

Some might argue that Ramadhan is a time focus on ‘ibadah’ but I would argue that maintaining a healthy body is a part of being a good, practicing Muslim. As long as you divide your time well, your work out is also considered as an ‘ibadah’ if your intentions are right and you do it for the sake of Allah.

 

So, after making some adjustments stated in the example below, it is business as usual with my running routine:

 

1)     Run at night – Just keep in mind to wait at least 2 hours after a heavy meal if you had a heavy meal at iftar. Or run very early in the morning before suhoor. Running when the sun is not out is much more pleasant and you won’t feel thirsty too quickly.

 

2)     Get enough rest – it is hard to define how many hours of sleep you actually need because it varies between people, so listen to your body.

 

3)     Hydration – Drink plenty of plain water. I know that some ice cold cendol at the bazar is tempting, but that should not be your priority. If you want to run while still fasting, some runners that I know revolve their running routine around iftar so their work out is complete as soon as it’s maghrib time.

 

4)     Eat right – getting enough nutrients such as carbs and protein is very important during Ramadhan because you have time for only 2 major meals. Therefore, focus on quality, not quantity of the food, for example, swapping the usual ‘kuih’ for fruits instead at iftar.

May all of you be rewarded with better performance for the months to come for adjusting your routine to suit the holy month of Ramadhan!

Prophet s.a.w’s Favorite Dates

Which will you choose first to break the fast with a variety of dishes spread on your dining table? Drinks? Cakes? Fruits? Rice with fish? Biscuits? Dates? Or other than those listed?

 Confusion-eng

 

Of course the dates, right? That’s what our Prophet encouraged to break the fast with.  Dates contain high amounts of natural sugars, but they are low-glycemic index food and do not increase blood sugar levels after they eaten. If there is no date, plain water is the second best. Basically, the scientific name for dates is Phonex dactylifera and can be eaten cooked or raw. There are many benefits that can be found in dates:

1. Preventing Chronic Disease like Diabetes and Heart

2. Help in growth and mind alertness

3. Prevent Stroke Attack

4. Stimulate and increase the potential of pregnancy

5. Increase patience, polite and smart thinking

6. Easy to digest and energizes body

7. Take blessing at new born baby

8. It’s our Prophet’s favorite fruit

 Khasiat-Kurma-eng

Dates contain lots of nutrients and vitamins that are needed by our body. The taste is so naturally sweet that it is always misinterpreted as an artificial-sugar-contained.

The amount of protein contain in a date is approximately 1.8 to 2.0%, for fiber is 2.0% to 4.0%, while sugar contains 50% to 57% glucose. This high amount of fiber High is good for bowel system. Dates are also rich in potassium and several other minerals. Potassium is an electrolyte that will re-balance the water in our body when we are insufficient of water, especially during fasting. Potassium also helps in maintaining the nervous system and building muscles which, includes the heart muscle .

There are varieties of dates that you might not know yet:

Sudah tentunya buah kurma kerana Nabi menggalakkan berbuka puasa dengan sesuatu yang manis. Jika tiada kurma, air masak adalah sebaik-baiknya. Nama saintifik buah kurma adalah Phonex Dactylifer dan boleh di makan masak atau mentah. Terdapat banyak khasiat boleh di dapati dalam buah kurma antara kelebihan-kelebihannya yang utama adalah:

Dr. Shima Rashid – Keeping FIT is a strive but NOT impossible for a CAREER Mom

Dr. Shima is a surgeon who specializes in  Ear Nose Throat (ENT) and mother of 4 young children. Within less than a year, she participated in many many runs. Here’s a brief on what drives her to keep FIT!

“I had my 4th baby just after Raya last year (August 2013) and I felt like I wasn’t losing weight. I had never really taken care of myself after my first baby anyway. Seemed like life and work got in the way! Although this was my 4th C-section, it was still hard to get back into the normal routine. I was very lethargic all the time. So when my baby was about 3 months, and having never ever run before, I taught myself to run, using certain applications on the smart phone. My first official run was the Bangi Fun Run, end of last year. With the support of friends and family, I found that I actually liked running and yes the weight was starting to fall off and the rest, they say, is history!”

YAY for Dr. Shima!

Here’s some sharing about Dr. Shima and her active lifestyle.

1) On this month of Ramadhan, do you do any exercise ?

I try to do some aerobics at home, but it is minimal as there are other ibadah that take up my time.

2) How do you feel when your weight is reduced and that you have achieved your certain target?

I feel great, of course, and more importantly I have learnt that there are no ‘short cuts’ when it comes to health. It is a type of investment – you need to put in time and effort to achieve good results.

3) What is your fitness target?

To achieve a normal Body Mass Index (BMI). And to maintain it!!

LOOK HOW MANY RUNS DR. SHIMA PARTICIPATED IN LESS THAN A YEAR!

Events

4) How do you manage your time between work, family and fitness?

I usually workout after 8pm during weekdays and early mornings during weekends. The workout schedule may be ‘ruined’ due to a child’s illness, or being called to the hospital during On-Call. It is a challenge, but you do what you can.

5) Do your other family members have an active lifestyle? How old is your eldest and youngest child? Do you do any activities with them? 

My husband plays futsal twice a week but he doesn’t fancy running. My eldest is 10 years old and my youngest is 11 months old. My older 2 children – Nazme who’s 10 and Effa who’s 8 – have started to want to join me in running events and so we train together during weekends. My 3rd one, Ezza who’s 4, wants to join too but she’s still has some growing up to do before she can.

gambar anak-anakIsn’t Dr. Shima awesome? Not only she has a HIGH self-discipline teaching herself to run and keeping up with it, she also shares her active lifestyle together with her children.

Dr. Shima like many other mothers, gets through her daily life by ‘doing what she can’  in taking care of the children and balancing career and health. Yes, there is no short cut. Fitness like anything else in life, requires EFFORT.

A big thanks to Dr. Shima Rashid who gives us many words of encouragement to build better products for modest women like her. She wears Nashata’s  Ultra Top, Riada Tops, Amin and Iman Hijabs and Riada Active Pants. She has got them all!

How to Complete Reading the Quran in 21 Days

“Ramadan is the (month) in which the Quran was sent down, as a guide to mankind and a clear guidance and judgment (so that mankind will distinguish from right and wrong) (2:183)

In honour and remembrance of that, some would devote time to complete reading and understanding the Quran during Ramadhan.  There are many other ways to complete reading the Quran during Ramadhan. Do what works for you. Below is my sharing on how to complete reading the Quran within 21 days.

Other than Tarawih, reading the Quran during Ramadhan is good. There are 30 juz with 6236 verses (ayat)  in the Quran. In 21 days, you need to read in average 300 verses, and allocate 4-5 hours a day, should you want to complete the Quran. This is assuming it takes 1 min to read a verse. Many can read a verse in less than 30 seconds.

1. How can you find 4-5 hours/day?

Whether or not you are working, you can find time within these slots

  • 75 mins after you have completed morning meal/sahur or after morning/Subuh prayers
  • 1 hour during lunch break hour or after Zhuhur/afternoon prayers
  • 1 hour after work or after Asar prayers
  • 45 mins between Maghrib and Isya prayers
  • 1 hour after Isya or tarawih prayers

2. What are the mediums to read the Quran?
Whether you choose to read the translation of the Quran or recite the Quran in Arabic, it does not really matter. Here are the medium you could use:

  • hard copy of the Quran
  • hard copy of the Quran with translation of your preferred language
  • digital version of the Quran when traveling or everyday reading on the move; web based sites like quran.com, app on electronic devices. Sometimes the digital version provides a translator and an audio reader. These functions can aid your reading and comprehension of the verses in the Quran
  • You can choose both, hardcopy and digital version of the Quran concurrently

I use multiple mediums to cross reference.

3. Here is a plan to complete the Quran in its entirety during Ramadhan
More verses are planned out the first few days and the number is reduced towards day 21. This is because many women tend to be busy towards the end of Ramadhan, plus women get a few days time off in a month.

May Allah accept our deeds, soften our hearts and grant us forgiveness. Have a bless Ramadhan!

5 Perkara yang boleh buatkan badan anda kurus di Bulan Ramadhan

berlari

Semasa bulan Ramadan inilah anda semestinya fokus mengerjakan ibadah puasa. Ianya bukan untuk menguruskan badan. Tetapi adakah badan anda semakin kurus atau semakin gemuk? Banyak orang makan mengikut nafsu apabila berbuka yang tanpa di sedari segala diet dan pemakanan seimbang terabai dan tidak di beri perhatian. Jangan pula terlalu kurang pergerakkan fizikal semasa berpuasa

Sambil menimba pahala di bulan Ramadhan ini, ikuti 5 tips yang boleh buatkan badan anda kurus,

1. Merancang aktiviti fizikal 

  • Lakukan 15-45 minit senaman ringan seperti berjalan, mengemas rumah dan sebagainya. Ianya baik untuk mengedaran darah semasa berpuasa
  • Kurangkan tidur dan lebihkan solat yang juga merupakan satu senaman. Anda dapat membakar sebanyak 60-80 kalori (mengikut berat badan anda) dengan menunaikan solat 5 waktu atau 17 rakaat.
  • Solat tarawih adalah juga satu kegiatan fizikal yang menguja kekuatan anda. Cuba kirakan berapa kalori dibakar apabila anda mengerjakan solat tarawih 20 rakaat?
  • Tahukah anda, anda dapat membakar 50-80 kalori  membaca selama satu jam? Bacalah Al-Quran di mana-mana jua anda berada. Ia membuatkan anda sentiasa peka dan minda anda juga dapat diasah.

2. Makan mengikut kalori  yang bersesuaian

  • Mengambil sebanyak 1200-2000 kandungan kalori setiap hari
  • Walaupun puasa kita masih perlu mengira secara terperinci kandungan kalori setiap makanan . Jangan lupa dua biji kurma mengandungi sekurang-kurangnya 45 kalori. Kalau anda memakan 10 biji kurma, anda telah mengambil sekurangnya 225 kalori. 
  • Makanlah seperti sediakala. Tidak perlu ditokok tambah pemakanan anda semasa berbuka puasa.

3. Berbuka dengan makanan penurunan berat badan

  • Lebihkan makan buah-buahan yang mengandungi banyak serat dan vitamin
  • Makan makanan yang  tinggi fiber & protin untuk menyeimbangkan kandungan gula, menghilangkan rasa lapar dan berlebihan makan
  • Elakkan makanan yang bergoreng dan berminyak

4. Mengawal kadar pengambilan air

  • Minum dengan kadar yang bersesuaian dengan berat badan
  • Elak mengambil makanan yang masin kerana boleh menambahkan rasa dahaga di siang hari
  • Elakkan minuman berais atau minum secara berlebihan semasa berbuka.

5. Rancangkanlah pemakanan anda

  • Bangun sahur dan mengambil makan & minum yang secukupnya untuk bekalan puasa seharian
  • Membeli dan menyediakan juadah yang berkhasiat dan bersahur dengan kadar yang mencukupi
  • Sama-samalah kita elakkan pembaziran wang dan makanan.

Kalau anda terasa mahu muat memakai baju raya pada bulan hadapan, jangan lupa untuk jaga pemakanan dan kesihatan di bulan ramadhan ini.
