RUN

I am so proud to announce that in the midst of my really dry and boring day of growing fungi at home, I had managed to drag my half mouldy body to the gym to RUN. Yes not slow jog but run.

After the really indulging ice cream binging session at island creamery last night with Liz and Kenneth, I felt ever more compelled to RUN. And so driven by guilt, i hit the threadmill n started running for a full 35 mins! GOSH. i have never ever run for so long. And i managed to cover 5.2 km! ok lah no big deal for u runners out there, but it is quite a record for me. Since i usually run like those cement mixer vehicle. Now can upgrade lah.. maybe to a Proton car? DON'T laugh k! one day i will be a Lamborghini. haha

Oh well as i was running, i was stunned by the news that i saw. An 8-year-old girl in China had covered 300km, running from her hometown to Beijing Tian An Men Square to celebrate the Olympics 2008. MY GOSH. 8 yr old running 300 km! And reachin in the wee hours of the morning! MY GOSH. N his dad followed her throughout her entire journey on a BIKE. This gal started training at a really young age and by the age of 3 she could easily run 3km. Poor girl though... must have been quite damaging for the body according to the doctors and scientists. But she looks happy running.
