Decisions

It is the time of the year .

MAPCU Road Relay 2010 . One of the things i had on my list to accomplish .

As of 9.30pm  Saturday , the 9th of JULY , instead of a tick , I cancelled that out of my list of to-dos .

Its been a dream for me to take part in it .Well , maybe not for Road Relay , but Track & Field was the main event i really really wanted to join really badly .

Since last year , i told myself i am going to train myself up till i am the fastest and had the highest stamina . I told myself i want to be the best in IMU so that i would be in the team . And i did .

I did train myself . IMU cup 2009 was the mini test . And i scored .

Because of the success in IMU cup 2009 ,  i was asked to take part in MAPCU Track & Field 2010 . So , that was a dream come true for me .

Due to the too intense training during Track & Field trainings , i suffered from calf injuries which took a few months for recovery . And because i ‘ve been in recovery period for such a long time , i lost the determination to run like i used to  .I feel that i can still take part in road relay even though it is just a week away . I believe i can make myself determined again .

But i made the decision  not to take part in MAPCU Road Relay 2010 .

Sometimes its the smallest decisions that changes our life forever .

I believe it will make a big difference in my life . But, i shall let it go this time =(

Letting it go may do me some good anyhow .

Bye bye Road Relay 2010 .

In remembrance of .

* Mourns in silence for  5 minutes *

I am VERY frustrated . My babies have turned homo !

Okay , maybe not . Alright .  They died yesterday . Still considering whether to give them a burial or cremation . T-T

My babies lived an amazing life even though just a short 3 years  . They were there for me during good times and bad times .  I would always feel refreshed and energized after a session with them . They were the ones that cheered me up and lifted me up , high high up , whenever i felt insecure , unconfident , self-conscious , depreciated and in short – like shit .My babies will forever be missed .

Alright , respect paid . What shoes to buy next ?? New Balance or another Adiddas ??

I’m really frustrated actually . I have no running shoes now . Meaning , i’d have to stop running . And it also means I might qualify to enter the Biggest Loser Asia . If i can’t fit into my pants or my pants are tight to the extent that its hurts my skin , I ‘ll be even more frustrated .  Warning ! You wouldn’t want to be around me then .

The dead shoes aren’t the only problem . I still feel the pain at my hip . To be more specific , there’s something wrong at the point where my hip bone and femur connects . I had this problem since November of last year . All because i did that extra lap of sprinting .  Since then , its been giving me problems till this day . But , i have to admit , i didn’t really give it the rest it needed . Couldn’t resist the temptation to run the Larian Gemilang 2010 . My mum and dad blames me for straining it too much . But , to tell you the truth , i didn’t feel any pain after the 10km run . It came back when i cycled . I’ve been bugging my parents to bring me to a orthopedic doctor since their medication failed . But , dad’s reluctant . He explained that its hard to diagnose the problem . A normal X-ray would not suffice as X-ray doesn’t give you a picture of the soft tissues . So , the next scan i could do would be a MRI . And it would cost RM800 ………. There goes my angpao money for this year . =(

I would be the happiest girl on earth if the pain stops bugging me . But if it meant spending that much . I would really have to consider . I  really hope that it would heal . Running is already part of my life . It hurts as bad as a break up to know that i have to quit running . It feels like i’m losing my legs . So ,  Imagine how shattered i would be if one day i was paralyzed from the waist down . *touch wood with as much skin contact from my body possible * =(((

Hello hello ? Any orthopedic doctors out there who would like to do some charity work ( consultation and even better free treatment and scan ) ? x)

I promise I would do you proud and promote you to the other runners out there  !

* Continues to mourn *

7

I’m number 7th ! 7th ! Blessed number 7 !

I came in number 7 ! Yay to me !! Nah , actually , its no biggy . Its a minor run .

Anyways , Larian Gemilang Rakan Muda 2010 wasn’t as tough and torturing as Mizuno wave run . I’m very relieve that my leg is still functioning well with not a single complication . Terima Kasih banyak banyak Tuhan .MUAX !

Larian Gemilang Rakan Muda 2010 wasn’t a very major run . It has more gradual slopes up than very steep ones like Mizuno Wave Runs. And like all runs … the top positions were conquered by black people .

I found out that , number 1 finished 10km in 40 minutes . That’s so fast !!!!!!!! I don’t know my time. But i’m guessing i completed it in about 60 minutes or so . 20 minutes difference is a lot! WTH are they made of !?

Got a hamper and a medal and a certificate too . Felt very happy but… exhausted . I’m glad i chose to join the run over going on a road trip to Singapore . =)

My friend promised me that he would supply me the Heong Piah from his hometown that i love so very much if i went on the road trip with them . But anyhow , I got myself Heong Piah from the hamper i won . Teeheehee . I’m destined to love Heong Piah . And to be loved back by Heong Piah . =))))))) ( in case u don’t know , Heong Piah is a kind of biscuit which is filled with malt sugar , best eaten with coffee , and it is cintaku )

Run baby run

The last two weekends were one whole Disney land rollercoaster ride.

Conquered the Klang Pacers 12 km run and Mizuno wave run .

Klang Pacers run wasn’t as good and challenging as the Mizuno wave run. It didn’t have much scenery amd the whole route was really dusty .

Mizuno wave run involved running uphills and downhills . Running uphill isn’t fun at all. It can be really demoralizing , after running a few meters of uphills , the slope goes on upwards. But then again , the higher and steeper the slope is , the more downhills there are .

The best thing was , I got souvenirs !

Lucky number D042

I really love the Mizuno vest . Super light !

Other free souvenirs i got .

Counter pain . Didn’t use it at all .

Other stuff that i didn’t use .

Some souvenirs i used

My priceless valuables : the medals . ( Not every runner have these babies )
