the 10km run

Long long time ago, in a land not far away from here (in Singapore), a boy used to be (one of the) last in school runs. He avoids running at all cost and the dark side has told him that he cannot do it....

This weekend, he is going to face that challenge again. Yes, I will be facing my old fears. But this time with a bit of difference, as a friend aptly put it:

What drives you? Jesus' fuel
Jesus' fuel... give you extra kilometers


Okay I hope that works. Plus I have also been practicing. As you can see from the chart below. Of course I label all of them 'easy' la....what else would they be called?



(Actually, there's long, trail, short, easy, chicken rice and nintendo. I have no idea what's the difference so I just put all of them easy)

Another point to note is that my wife has suddenly improved and have been running so fast I can't catch up with her. I was quite dissapointed with myself last week for not improving. I sulked and sulked and there was this tension between us. Thankfully it's much better now. I come to realiase that it's 'me' I have to challenge. Comparison just makes one feel bad about oneself all the time. As for 'me', 'me' has been improving, slowly but improving.

On a brighter note, it's a good feeling chasing skirts again... as soon as I can persuade her to wear those short skirt tennis players wear for runs or those shorts. Ahhh.. such spiritual reasons I have written in my blog.
