Adidas Sundown Marathon' 09

I'm participatg in Adidas Sundown Marathon this Sat at 8:30p.m.!

My friend Winnie asked me along for the 10km women category.

I agreed, out of a kind intention to be there for her.

-

But after studying the exact route a few days later, I almost wanted to back off.

-

It is the stretch btw Changi Village to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal!

I will never forget e ARDUOUS experience where I did night cycling there (click to read), not once but TWICE! And this Sat will be the 3rd time, travelling on the same route!

That stretch is a KILLER (no exaggeration)! It seems like a NEVER-ENDING route.

Cycling, alone took me 1hr and my bum HURTS after that.

I wonder how fast can Bus 11 take me...

2 hrs? 3hrs?

-

Others count sheeps to pass time... I will count the number of airplanes flying over my head?

-

And yes... MP3 is definitely a must-have!

Probably, I will then fully appreciate a leader's favourite...

"Help me, help me, help me... All I need is You!"

*LOL... If u noe what I mean*

Share with you the whole experience in my next post!

Jogged to Kovan!

Just returned from jogging! Refreshed!

I changed my usual route; jogged from Sgoon to Kovan instead!
This is relatively EASY cos some courses are downhill.

Feeling no kick, I purposefully lengthened the journey by circling around Hougang interchange before finishing at Selegie Soya Bean to have a bowl of soya bean curd!

Next... Should I take a bus home or walk back?

Guess my option?

I walked back...

while praying in the spirit along the way.

I past by "Helping Hands".

Peering through the fence, I saw a big brown dog!
As I continued walking, I realised the main gate was wide-open!

Breaking into cold sweat, my survivor instinct taught me to walk on the road instead of the pavement so that I could stop a car and ask for help just in case the dog pounced on me.

At that moment, I'm glad I wasn't jogging.

Had the dog saw me jog, he might have run after me!

Anyway, the dog minded his own biz and did not come out frm the house. *PHEW*

However, I did not let down my guard.

While walking, I kept turng back... just to check if the dog came out!

Thank God it did not.

When I reached my void deck, it started POURING!!!
Yup! Not drizzling but POURING!!!

Glad it rained only AFTER I reached home!

God is good! :)
