Christmas Present

It's that time of year again when I have to wreck my brain to come up with what to get my Baby.

This year, her present had to take a trip from Cincinnati, Ohio to Indianapolis, Indiana to Anchorage, Alaska and finally to Singapore.

Watch this space for the Christmas present
(I never knew there was a Mr. Christmas)

School Rumble

A little cheer up

I still love her so very much but I've decided for her happiness I'll take a step back and let her do what she wants. I pray to God for strength to follow through with this and to watch out for her when I'm not there. Amen.

Another run, this time from home to the stadium, 7 rounds and back home. Followed by pull ups (3, 1, 2, 3).

Did a run round the estate, first one after the SCSM. Right foot still hurts slightly, stamina took a dip. Finished off with push ups (3 x 10) and sit ups (30, 20, 10). Slow start to getting the engine running again.

There are some days that I would feel bitter,
but most of the days I'll just feel hurt...

A quick recap of what happened on race day...

Woke up feeling half dead at 4.50 am. LATE!!! Had planned to meet Mike and CM at the baggage deposit point at 5.30 am. A quick rinse, no toilet time and I'm off. Managed to flag a cab when my phone went off, it was Mike asking where on earth am I. Met up with the guys fifteen minutes later at the memorial park and its already crowding with people ready for the half marathon. Sharing a protein bar, we slowly made towards Fullerton One where the start point was.

6.15 am and we're off! Well sort of, there were so many runners that we had to trot till the old Collyer Quay before we could start running. Weather was good and we slowly moved to the middle of the HM group. Being CM and my first 21k, we decided to be careful not to push too much ourselves too much in the earlier portion. We ran pass some runners taking a leak in the bushes turning into Marina Bay, no girls though.

We covered the first 15k in a pretty relaxed pace and then the rest became a blur.

15k- ran ahead of Mike and CM
17k- legs started to cramp up so slowed to a walk and legs felt like jello...
18k - CM over took me with a towel tied around his head
18.5k- started to jog with cramps slowly creeping back
19-20k- every step sparked off a series of cramp, feet, calf, thigh, butt cheek (not always in order)
20.5k- saw the finishing line, adrenaline kicked in and started to speed up. Miraculously the cramps disappeared as I started to sprint. Went pass Mike at the last 500m mark.
21.2k- Finishing line! Didn't even know I was looking at the camera as I pass the Golden (white) Arch, must be the Star in me... Barely missed a guy in a NYP athletics team singlet who stopped right in my path to tend to his cramps.

The feeling of finishing was incredible! The furthest distance I had covered before this was 10k at the Terry Fox 2006. Still couldn't feel my legs though, as I floated to collect my medal (everyone gets one). Legs couldn't stop shaking while I tried to remove the senor chip. Lost sight of both Mike and CM so made my way to collect my stuff and to the nearest toilet to relieve the protein bar.

Even though my right foot is still hurting from tying the stupid sensor too tightly, I can't wait for the next run!

Maybe I'll psycho Zen to join...
