So..I realised that my blog has became a bit stagnant..hee..too busy, tired and lazy. I've been busying myself at work, thanks to 190 christmas cards that I've to sign, for myself and on behalf of my boss, which makes that 380 signatures. In addition, I've to write 188 mailing addresses on the envelopes, glue and 'stamp' them, with a teeny weeny help though. whew~ it's done, finally..I don't have to face the cards tomorrow again!
I want to watch sunday's SINGAPORE VS VIETNAM match live! at the National Stadium. Still looking around for kakis. I want my LIONEL LEWIS!!!:D

Woohoo! I finished 10km at the Singapore Marathon today! I was not ruling out the option of walking before I reached Padang as I had a fever on Friday night. Sat was fine, but felt unwell as night falls. I woke up this morning feeling breathless, and I was actually worried that I might collapse in the midst of the race. After all, Sir did say that my body may not recover in time and I should skip this and join others when I'm feeling better.
I went anyway, having prayed the night before that I would be alright. Wan Hsin and I started the race, side by side, and I just kept praying throughout the run. I needed His presence, His strength and energy for me to complete 10km. It's not an easy run, especially up the super high bridge on the highway. Surprisingly, I picked up speed on the way up, so that I can get it over and done with. At the top of the bridge, I felt immense joy to realise that I've completed half of the run, 5km! I did feel like vomiting during the run, felt like giving up, felt discomfort within my body, but I kept pressing on, and I kept praying. I prayed that His presence will be with me and I know that I will meet Him at the finishing point. Of course, I prayed that it will not be meeting Him literally, as it meant that phoof!, I'm gonna be in heaven. Haha!:P
I'm so thankful that I completed this tough run with a weak body but a strong and mighty spirit. I know it was faith that pulled me through, faith that lasted me for the whole run. Amazingly, my legs were not aching at the end of the entire race, and I could walk normally. Plus, I could never express the amount of gratitude I feel towards Wan Hsin, for always running beside me even when she can go ahead and for making sure that I'm there beside her. :)
