Remember a year ago, I mentioned in my post that I would be taking the challenge of joining half marathon if I had my adequate training, yup.... I've actually taken up this challenge days ago.
I'm not really satisfied with my result precisely, yet I was able to complete the whole run. It was tough actually, I suffered a lot regardless physically or mentally. But like someone (who joined full marathon) replied on his facebook when his mate queried him his placing in the marathon:
"Joining marathon is not about placing, but it is about the completion."
I like his answer alot, I did feel good when the time I stepped in the finish point. Although I took longer time to finish the whole run yet I appreciated the whole process of my running.
My first half-marathon - Standard Chartered Half Marathon, I spent 2 hours 45 minutes to finish the whole run. Perhaps I could do better next year if I train myself properly..
Once again, a bundle of thanks to my mates, family, colleagues and the one who supported me before, during and after the run. You guys really boosted up my confidence a lot. I never thought I might complete the whole 21km.
Of cause, I promise myself to perform better in next Standard Chartered Marathon or perhaps other runs held by other organisations....
XOXO
