Post no. 145
It feels nice to run in the morning on some public road with masses of people whom you dont really know.
Once in awhile, running in a group isnt that bad.
The free 100 plus was nice.. i wanted to steal some.. but i figure i didnt need them since i've stock up on cheap 100 plus over the past week in anticipation for the upcoming marathon.
There just isnt added incentive anymore.. no one to steal it for..
Mama dont drink it... bro most prob doesnt need it.. and dearest poison is more interested in iced Milo than 100 plus..
=(
The topic on running marathon came up again during the 1/2 marathon. We both agreed that this year's marathon would definately be our last...in view of our old age and we dont wanna spend our latter part of life on clutches...
I've come a looong way. I remember the time when i was first introduced to marathon. It was the year 2002..
I was enlisted as a helper to help usher the runners. My mind was made up the moment i saw runners coming towards the finish line ( Some half dead...).. the sight was enough to excite me to tell myself that i would at least run one marathon in my life.
As history would have it... i ran (2 years later).. alone, with skeptics and critics who did their part in discouraging me. 'Marathon? Why? Would you die?'
It got harder as time goes by.. perhapes its my age.. perhapes its my knees... perhapes its because i lack training.. but when i ran, i always told myself that i must hurry. So that i would be in time for the 100 plus and mineral water at the end.. haha...silly but true. I didnt want them to run out... i wanted to steal those 100 plus and cute mineral bottles for her...
Last year, i didnt ran. Not because i dont enjoy running anymore. i still do...alot. But i realised that besides myself, there wasnt anyone else who would share the 100 plus and the free flow of mineral water.. There just wasnt enough incentive to run anymore.
Along the way, i had lots of goodies like shoe bags, medals, free vitamins and of course, the finisher T-shirt. I still have the one from 2006.. Im not proud of it...because i collected it without sweating a single bead of sweat.. unlike the preious years. The Finisher T-shirt just wasnt enough incentive to run... I had no one to give it to...
This year, i'll go run. i'll go run with all my might.. hopfully, i'll find enough reasons and incentives between now and then to run.. I miss her presence at the finishing line..
Theres only soo much 100 plus that i can drink.. i wanna steal it for people who would drink it with me... hahah... oh yes, im cheap skate. Yes, i am...
