"Where's the turning point?"
"Are we there yet?"
"Why so long?"
"Excuse me (signalling to the shuttle bus plying along the 8km route), please pick me up!"
"Daddy!!!Please come and pick me up!"
Those were some of the phrases that Liyan had to endure during our 8km run as we did our part for the President's Healthcare Challenge organised by KKH for all healthcare workers (government, private and healthcare organisations). Anyway, I SURVIVED the 8km run!! Am I glad that I did not make it to the headlines - "To-be dietitian-nutritionist collapses at the end of 8km healthcare run!", considering that I was recovering from a cold and a phelgmy cough and only managed to jog-a-walk 3km during my gym session last thursday. Indeed, a young man collapsed and died at the end of the half marathon during the annual army half-marathon.
So, a pat on the back for having survived 8km. The feeling of completing each race gives a different experience - jogging partner, route condition, weather and distance. Let's continue to keep fit while I press on with another 2 races scheduled in Oct and Dec.

Looking all sweaty after 8km
