Serendipity

I'm glad to have the opportunity to go back to Japan. Now, getting ready for the trip to Tokyo in 5 more days. I forgot how cold is the winter, so I have to be ready for the bone chilling experience. Three years ago a friend borrowed all my winter jackets for Mt. Kinabalu trip but he went missing after that, and I never see my jacket since then. No choice, I went to buy a few thermal and winter clothing at Uniqlo. Lucky me, it is near end of winter so they have winter clearance sales. But I still not sure how to run a marathon in winter. Hope I don't fall sick after that. RM 5 each...Very cheap!  I feel blessed to be surrounded by wonderful friends around me. When my plan to get a sponsorship from my company didn't turn out well, a friend managed to convince her company to consider on sponsoring my trip to Japan. Lucky me, my proposal was accepted by the Board and they are so generous they even gave me more than what I proposed. The company I'm talking about is...

Multi-Purpose Insurance 12km Run

It's only into second week of 2012 and I already did my second race this year. Normally, I don't sign-up for any distance lower than half marathon, but since the race venue is very near at Padang Merbuk, I decided to participate just for fun.

"The best school holiday ever!" my kids said....

Image
Yes.... that was what my boys said! Being in a family is all what they wanted. A family doesn't mean must have both parents, being with one parent who knows what they want is good enough. I took them out jalan-jalan every weekend. Desa waterpark is a must go place school holidays. I don't know why they like it so much. As usual, their favourite cousins Syukran & Afif tagged along.  We went out several times to watch movies in cinema and try new things like archery.  Outing with Niza's family. Her son also named "Ian" excited to see Ian & Dmi. We went watching Puss in Boots.  Every weekend full with activities. I'm glad they enjoyed being with me :) Took them to Sunway Lagoon, but don't go during school holidays. The place jammed pack with people & tourist. They wish school holidays will last forever. All good things must come to an end, same goes to school holiday and it's time to send Ian back to J...

Newton New Year Challenge

My first race in 2012. 25km is a good distance to start my training for Tokyo Marathon in less than 2 months. Brought a camera as usual but forgot the memory card.... dang!! So, I ran as fast as I could (errr... not that fast actually) and clocked 2:44hrs.

Goodbye 2011, Welcome 2012

New year eve always a good time to look back at the past and more importantly looking forward to the coming year. I have achieved nearly all I wanted to do in 2011 such as spending more time with my kids, maintain my fitness level throughout the year, completed some major races, lead my own team at work, enjoy life more and the biggest achievement is having my own place. Races I took part in 2011 My own place What's in the house for 2012. Tokyo Marathon under 5 hours- This is a start for me to race in overseas. Errr... other than Singapore in the past. Maybe racing in Asean like Thai, Cambodia or Indonesia will do less damage to my pocket. Ultramarathon - To complete a distance longer than a marathon. My aim is Sundown 100km in Singapore in June. Learn something new - After take up drumming, I want to learn play guitar. I bought one recently. Hope by end of next year, I will be able to impress chicks with my new skill :) Get back together with my two ang...
