Training Log


Stats for today's (Wednesday) run: 7km in 40:20
Managed to squeeze in some mileage b4 it rained cats and dogs. Wonder how am I ever gonna do 10km in 40mins! any tips?

Later at nite pampered my tummy with lotsa pizzas and cakes(well 1 piece o cake) at CG Bday Celebration. argh! training all ruined? nah, well at least I COULD pamper myself coz i put in the mileage adi =P




For those of you who are the praying type, do toss in a prayer or two for a friend, Mr Pon, he was my doubles partner in tennis last thursday during a tennis session and he tripped and fell backwards, had a concussion, his scalp cracked from the back to the front and there was internal bleeding in the brain, still unconscious till today and brain is still very swollen, its very sad, I'm very sad. Please pray for a miracle. thanks.

Freaky Monday

Walking back home from Jusco this afternoon there was this guy on the motorbike "wondering around" then he stopped at the T junction, i looked at him and he asked me for directions to Ipoh Garden East, so i told him how to get there, then the shocker came... some of you already read before few of my posts thats similar, my encounters with the strange kind, here's another to add to the list..

Motorist : Dari mana?
Me : Sini
Motorist : Kerja mana?
Me : Kerja sini
Motorist : ohhhh....

Motorist : banyak hensem ah you (saying with a girlish move dunno how to describe)

Me thinking ( Get the hell outta here before i beat the crap out of you you freak!!!)
I made a disgusted expression and sound and ignored him and walked off. Prolly scared him coz he didnt dare follow me to my destination.

Besides that, I had a good bicycle ride with HS yesterday (Sunday 4pm). THe dates and time in this blog is screwed up! i dunno how to fix it...
It was insanely hot though!! still we rode bout 50km on the road to Batu Gajah, my timing was 1:42:45 (1hour 42mins 45secs) Rode quite closely to HS as much as i could, but dropped off in the last 6km, i just couldnt keep up with his pace. was a good ride!! He says i've improved alot! and already faster than many guys! Man don't you love encouragements!! i wanted to go do a 10k run after that but my left knee was hurting a little.

Hope



man what a lousy start to the week, its been dark n bitter times for me. its a good thing i don't play football anymore or i wld seriously break somebody's leg in the field or court. but thank God He steps in just in time, EVERY TIME! today's devotional was bout Hope - What Hope does for Mankind:-


Hope shines brightest when the hour is darkest
Hope motivates when discouragement comes
Hope energizes when the body is tired
Hope sweetens while bitterness bites
Hope sings when all melodies are gone
Hope believes when evidence is eliminated
Hope listens for answers when no one is talking
Hope climbs over obstacles when no one is helping
Hope endures hardship when no one is caring
Hope smiles confidently when no one is asking
Hope presses toward victory when no one is encouraging
Hope dares to give when no one is sharing
Hope brings victory when no one is winning
(John Maxwell from Think on These things)


just when i thought i'm at the lowest, i saw the pic above. it's inspiring. God must be telling me sumthin. inspires me to live on. it gives a peaceful and calm feeling in the midst of turmoil .. somehow.. thank God there is always hope. good n pleasant thoughts come to my imaginations when i see the pic above. one of em wld be "imagine how good and encouraging a person will feel if i wrote this note to that person" the same way if i received it.
