Endurance

According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, endurance means:

1: the ability to withstand hardship or adversity, especially : the ability to sustain a prolonged stressful effort or activity.

2: the act or instance of enduring or suffering.

In other words, pain.

No wonder a lot of people shy away whenever they hear the word 'run'. Or 'walk'. Orang Malaysia pemalas apa. They park their car as near as possible to the front door of anything (complexes, offices), drive everywhere (so they can do the previous) and considers a point-to-point walk of more than 5 minutes is far. Hah! Do we have statistics on this? I bet if we have it should be shocking. The statistic for Malays (please read this!) who participates in various events during KLIM 05 was shocking enough. Oh well, I'm glad I'm not in the statistics.

Credits to Rohaizad for compiling the statistics!
