Nike+ 10km Human Race  Wow am i glad to say that i completed the Nike+ 10km Human Race on 31st Aug 2008! 10 KM and i did it by myself, having not ran for the past 6 months and going totally unprepared. Hah. Some may say that it's just 10km, but to me it has been monumental and a really great experience.For starters, I am plagued with MUSCLE ACHES. My thighs refuse to cooperate when i squat or go up and down the stairs, my waist is screaming and my knees are cranky. And i have used 2 boxes of Salonpas = 20 pieces everywhere on my body. Oh mannnnn... doesn't help when everywhere in school are STAIRS. The race was pretty irritating at the beginning cos the congestion was pissing everyone off. Bad organisation i would say, because we didn't know where to go and there were people pushing and elbowing. Was worried that there would be a stampede cos the people around us were pretty big-sized and some were quite tall. Saw some familliar faces in the crowd too. Ran the whole race by myself, and it was really a test of my perseverance. Being really unfit, i stopped to brisk-walk for a while before chiong-ing for the last km. Haha at that point in time i couldn't really feel my legs but i made myself run as fast as possible to reach the finising line. I didn't see my timing, but i know i should have exceeded my target of 65mins. Oh well it was a pretty good run! Met some acquaintances, pictures all on facebook. Feeling pretty proud of myself for having completed it without walking the whole race! YAY :D Just to add, soci tutorial made me regret coming to fass. All i had wanted to do at NUS was Sociology, and now everything is like a slap in my face. I really deserve it man. Should really have done mass communications at NTU since i was accepted but i didn't! Now i am stuck at NUS and i don't know what to do. What is right and what should be done? Should i stay or go? Sigh. Really wanna go for a spin.  |
