Big Update

So it has been a long long time since I posted something here. All I can say is that it has been a busy time for me. Between completing the Gold Coast Half Marathon and now, I’ve been working like crazy and training for the Sydney Half Marathon. I’ve picked up hip-hop dancing and am looking for new goals to accomplish. Sydney is next weekend. Scared. Petrified. I looked at the cut off times and I might be dead meat. LOL. Almost thinking of changing my event just so I can run over the Harbour Bridge and not worry about missing the cut off. I haven’t done as much running as I would have liked and not entirely sure about my mental capacity. My physical side isn’t the worry. I think I am as fit as I was for Gold Coast but not running mental prepared. I think I will be running on pure adrenaline when it starts.

Here are some pictures of me doing the Gold Coast. Didn’t find any pictures of me running Bridge to Brisbane. Beat my time from last year by 2 mins. So it was 1hr 22mins. Fantastic! It was an extraordinarily hot day. I guess that is enough motivation to keep me going. Knowing I can break my personal best.

Official timing for Gold Coast was 2hrs 47mins. :D

For Sydney I will have to beat that by 2 mins to make it within the cut off times. Wish me the best! :D To make me feel good about running, I bought new running gear. I will be wearing the Lululemon Run:Tempo Crops. So comfy… so smooth… hope it will make me run like the wind! :D

See ya, Michael…

So waking up yesterday and hearing the news of one of my earliest musical idols was almost heartbreaking for me. I was shocked to hear the news because I was eager to see what sort of ‘comeback’ he was going to have. I remember being a kid and watching Bad on telly and trying to dance like him and recreate the music video in the living room. My brother and I singing along to the entire Dangerous album. RIP Michael Jackson. Your songs will forever live in our memories.

On another note, I finally decided to take part in the Gold Coast Half Marathon that is next Sunday. I am getting nervous and eager to see if I finish it! :D I have been training hard and hope it will pay off. Got my accommodation settled and now I will have to sort out getting down to the Gold Coast. Anyway, would love if you would donate to my cause…

Till next time…
