Yah, I think I should write about it. This is another personal achievement in my life - running a marathon. During April 2010, my colleague, Ms Samathan Lee, who had taken part in last year Marathon, invitde me to join her in the run. At that time, I was busy preparing demo for our bread and butter customer and feeling preasure and down and despressed with my work life, I thought, why not ? That is something different than mountain climbing. That's how I asked her to sign me up immediately. From then, there is no turning back. I had always thought of running the Penang Bridge marathon since I started working in Penang soon after graduating from USM and until now I haven't fullfilled the dream yet. Also, I thought I will be star in the atheletic field during school day if not for my parent who is very academic oriented. From then, my mind is focusing on this marathon. I started practicing after work with Ms Lee and others at KLCC park every other day if possible. I run for 2 rounds as a start and then increased to 3 rounds in June 2010. When the time almost near the actual running day, I tried running Sg Long big round which is 6.3 KM which took me 1 hour time, training 45 minutes for 2 of the weekend.
And I make it. My gun time is 1:34 and my net time is 1:28:18 !!! Bravo... and I am still thrilled with my achievement. hahahaha LOL.... LOL....
Although I feel body ache and leg pain now (it is recovering) I think it worth it !! And luckily my 'sister' came a few day before the run... hahaha.
