Once again challenge my Willpower

Time goes fast. It's already the 2nd time I joined Penang Bridge Marathon.

Last year, I have my best friend running with me, give me the courage to challenge 21km half marathon. 

This year, there are no more worries or scared as I know it'll be not hard to finish but just the matter of finishing time. 

Result for year 2012 "2.52.50.68", finished 2mins earlier compared to last year

This is posted on Allianz facebook cover page. Surprisingly our picture is being selected out of thousands of pictures!

Front from left: Jijuan, Sotong & Hai
and mei siem & me at the back :)

Never forget to take picture with 2 pretties from TITAN. 

Still remember last year my knee joint was hurt, walking up and down stairs was killing me for weeks! Seem I'm getting stronger this year, still able to walk around take picture after marathon, fully recover from muscle pain after 2-3 days. 

Running marathon is just like a short term achievement in our life, 21km is the target, target is in the front, either give up or continue, finish it fast or slow. We decide it for our own. 

I will continue to run, run for my life...

The only thing that I wanna Salute to myself!

YES!

WAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

happy ending for marathon!

Baba, Mama, I make it!

The moment I finished the run, I was thinking am I able to finished in time?

It was really surprised I was actually reached there in 3 hours!

It's really out of my expectation!

To finish in time is my target and never think of can finish it earlier!

The feeling of breakthrough your own capability is something that you can't express in words!

It is superb "syok"!

I keep running all the way, the only things keep in mind is to finish the run!

We are always controlled by our mind, this is somehow something set a limitation for us.

If I happened to know that there is still some times to go, for sure i'll stop and rest a while.

From this marathon,

Physically, get to know i can run for 21km nonstop!

Mentally, get to know that

set a target is good, so that we can have the sense of achievement and satisfaction,

but never stop after the target is achieved as we might able to achieve far far above our target.

Let urself control ur mind, be persistent and determined in life..

make the impossible to possible!

Long Lost Marathon

Been LOST my track on jogging for few weeks!

I can said just a blink on eyes!

The marathon is on this Sunday!

Without practicing, am I able to finish the Run in time???

Just started to catch up my practice last monday...

To speed up my practise, I run for 60mins for the 1st time!

It's really a good improve on myself!

But till today, I can still feel the pain on my muscle!

Can't imagine! This Sunday I'm going to torture x3 my legs!

GoOD Luck to me!

Today...Failed ar!

Without motivation from distance tracking system, my stamina is really failed ar! 

All the running machine were occupied so this was the 1st time run the track outside. 

It's very different running under air-con compared to outside! 

Found it so hot and tired! 

I gave up after ran for around 15mins =.=

Tomorrow must catch up the training again!

3 ways to run a better Marathon

Simply from an article : Three ways to run a better Marathon

1. Do a second weekly longer run.

2. Run more hills. 

3. Finish fast.

Practice 5: Manage to maintain as Practice 4

From the articles, found out that I should have some day to rest, some day to have longer run instead of practicing everyday and keep maintaining the distance of run.

So, I might have a rest tomorrow :)

Tomorrow can go shopping to look for a good running shoes for myself...

Do you know?

Our body absorbs a force of about three times of body weight every time we hit the ground

and my leg was sprained before, should buy a shoes to protect my leg.

(it's really a concrete reason to spend money during poor period ^_^)

Yes, we are IN.

Finally, 

we are officially register for "Penang Bridge International Marathon" .

Half Marathon with 21km.

Practice 4:

Distance: 4.5km; Speed: 8.0; Time: 33mins

Today start to run with a brain loaded with work,

really felt difficult and heavy in every step I moved forward. 

Btw, I do finish the run. 

A little consolation to myself  : )

I run because it's feel great!

Today got improvement: 

" Distance: 4.5km; Speed: 7.8; Time: 35mins "

and I'm still full of energy to run further!

You know what? 

This is the energy vented out due to my stress and hatred!

Felt so relax and release after finish the run!

Now I found a new way to release stress!

21km or 10km?

Was sick last two days and today just continue with my practice. 

2nd practice: This time I'd run 4km in 32mins with speed 7.5.

After done, my face turn to super red like "red boom"! 

Feel like it's already my limit, no more energy to run further. 

The motivation that push me to finish 4km are the "distance" and "time" that shown in the meter reading. 

without the meter, running on the Penang bridge...would I able to do so?

Still hesitating on the registration...10km or 21km?

Marathon...don't challenge me!

 1st practice: I'd run for 4km in 40mins! 

Really a good start for myself!

Girl, dare or not dare! 

You know, I never like to jog but dare to challenge Half Marathon, then why not you? 

Let's join together and run together!

Jogging on the amazing Penang bridge, step on it and feel it! 

I believe looking around the beautiful sea view, 21km will never make you tired.

You might think that i'm too confident...but never said NO before you tried!

But if failed to finished in 3.15hrs =.=

hehe...then try next year lor ^_^
