Work has got all of it. Work has got me. Work has got my legs from running. Work has got my ass from sitting on a saddle for 3 hours. Work has got my swimming, or whatever you may call it.
Looking back, I have always wanted to run the marathon in KLIM. The real thing. The whole 41.195km of it. Years passed, and im still looking at the photo of me finishing a half-marathon in Singapore, back in 2004 at a painfully 2 h 24 mins.
Back then, I was just running no more than 10k a day as far as I can remember. There was no real structured training for me. Just log your mileage and hit the road on race day.
Now? I cant even log a decent 500m!
Oh, what am I whining about?
Regardless, my girl and I will be running KLIM in the 10k event next Sunday. I just hope i dont end up in the sweepers van. I hope to finish it. I have never DNF-ed before. Not even when Im the last person at some point during PD International Triathlon. I can still hear the words I was saying to myself during my endeavour in Singapore: "Just keep running, even if its slow. Just finish it".
Im going to repeat that mantra again come Sunday. And hey, you are already a winner by showing up at the starting line, arent you?
