ahm 2007!

just came back from AHM 2007! completed this year's run in special circumstances...hahaz...cos just recovered from minor food poisoning on mon-wed...so it sorta means that i din get to run since...last friday? hahaz...1.5 weeks never condition...plus the food poisoning bit...the odds were against me larz...but heck larz...just try...

woke up @ 330...prepared and left house to go pick joshua, my sis's bf, before heading the the city area...then changed to my shoes before dumping the bag with my sis who would wait for us @ the grandstand...=P...this sis quite useful one...dunnid to put the bag at the bag deposit...hahaz...

met up with shunhua before i ran off to the toilet...warmed up a bit before heading to the start line...then at 0530...then race was flagged off! hahaz...the first 15km was alright...my pace was qutie accurate @ 6min per km...so @ 16 km...i was @ 1hr 35 min...but after that...the results of not conditioning for the past week finally showed...my calf and thighs just wun listen...and the steps was so small...but cannot help it...hahaz...finally finished @ 2h 10 min...sighz...poor timing...but accpetable considering the circumstances...hahaz...next year...i will be back! i wan a timing of 1hr 55 as my next target! hahaz...collect my things...changed before gg for brunch with shunhua and zhengwei!

just heard that there was a fatality from the run, a cpt from ocs collapsed and died...this is tragic news...it is so sad to hear that a fellow runner has died...

anyway...some good news...my sis's bf proposed to her after the run! but in a SUPER DUPER UNROMANTIC way...the story goes like this...they have previously shopped for the proposal ring TOGETHER liaoz...just waiting for him to think of a way to pop the question...then for today...he set a personal target of 1hr 40min which he met...then he put the ring, wrapped in TISSUE PAPER, in a MEDICINE ZIPLOCK BAG, tgt with the finisher medal and just PASSED it to my sis like "Na...for you"...|||o...and he was not on his knee also! my sis only agreed after making him go one one knee! argh! when my sis told me how he proposed...i could not believe it lorz...sis...if u reading this...it was the MOST UNROMANTIC proposal that i have ever heard ever! hahaz...but if you are reading this also...i am so happy for you sis! =)...congrats!
