One of the more significant things that has happened since my last rambling was the disappearance of flight MH370. There has been tonnes of news and mostly speculations on the event. One thing we know for sure is, there are many pilots and airline expert amongst us. Just look at their Facebook posts. Everyone has some conclusion, or comment on the whereabouts of the plane, an opinion on the pilot and families, how the military radar works and not to forget, the capabilities (or lack of) of our government in handling the case. Everyone shares almost every news on their FB, without checking the authenticity. They tag the family members, as if they hadn't suffered enough. So, what I am trying to say is, I won't bore you with my opinion on the matter. I only pray for my dear friend to find happiness and closure, and be able to live life growing old with his kids. Amin.
I have also been running (though some people might call it brisk walking). Joining running events gives me a sense of high, and I am forced to run, all for the sake of a medal. I am old, so I do not run to improve my timing what so ever. I just want to collect medals. It's my own personal achievement and I am proud of myself.
Recently, some younger friends have been putting ideas in my head to run a Half Marathon. So last night I suddenly had this semangat to actually try running a HM. So this morning I put on my running shoes, and ran my normal morning routine, and tried to run the whole way. Yes! I did it! Though it was not 21km.. (notice I refuse to let you know how far I ran) but I still felt good. But.... I don't think I can stomach it. So I will not register for HM in the Putrajaya Night Marathon. Maybe next year. Who knows? The registration for it is already open by the way, so be sure to join the crowd! Go to the page below for more information.
Yes, the event is on my birthday, so if I were to run a HM on that day, it would be awesome!!! But, alas, .. Might need to checkout some HM training plans soon. Though...
The next day however, is the Standard Chartered KL Marathon. Which is also a huge international event. So I'm torn between the two. Do I dare enough to enter both? Will I be able to do it? I need to read more on running, I guess.
Oh well, my little baby boo just woke up. Need to get back to my house chores before a lunch outing with the ladies. I need to write more. I have all these words in my head I need to let out :). Au revoir!
