Almost 2 years of traing have not come to vain. Has no confidence to finish it as the training wasn't smooth closer to the end and worse still, my foot was stung by sea urchin while snorkling in Phuket last week! Not only the foot is in pain but also mean i can't train for the entire last week towards the final day!
But now, thank God! i have finished it and with a not so embarrasing timing. My goal was sub-4 though.
Now that i have proved to myself i can do it and have achieved my goal, i am going to put this sport to past as as i do not want to deplet my knee cap. i will run 10 km trice a week with outdoor fitness excercise from now on to keep fit and keep my 6-packs!
Thinking of the journey to last Sunday itself is an enjoyment. The beatiful view along the running rute of Seng Kang and Poonggol Waterway. The chill of the rain, the quiet of the nights and the cool of the mornings, will be memberable. Of course the agony of the pain, soreness, fatique and the rigorous can-not-miss schedule on the other hand, remind me to achieve great thing, I must first sacrify.
My previous goal was to play sub-90 for my golf game. i achieve it during one of the game at Marina Bay. after that, realising to maintain at that level consistently i need to sacrify alot of my family time, which i feel is silly. hence i decide that that single game of 86 is all that i needed to declare i have achieved my goal.
Running a marathon was my second goal that i set since i sold my business and came back to SG from China. I feel the need to set challenging goals for myself after i switch to a not-as-demanding running own business-pace life.
My next goal is to get my PHD! May God Bless Me!
