After so many years which I kept saying that I wanted to join the Standard Chartered Marathon Run but to no avail; this year I finally did it.

My running kit (Without the medal though)

Although it's not the full marathon, I was still happy after the run. The feeling was great, as I finally managed to complete a long overdue wish. It was not easy for myself as I had never covered such distance in my life!! A sense of accomplishment! =D Throughout the run, I felt good. It was towards the finishing line where I had to drag myself to reach the finishing line as my knees were giving way... Thanks to my running kaki, Xiangde who encouraged me to finish the race. The girl was also there to support me, which I was really touched. Although she did not managed to see me crossed the finishing line. Her presence there to wait for me at the finishing line was enough to give me encouragement, wanting to see her at the spectator point. =)

Me in action =)

The finishers' medal

Hopefully, next year I'll be able to challenge myself to the full marathon with the girl running with me in the event. Not the 42km for her though. Haa. =)
