Well, I would have been ready a week or so ago, if not for the doctor’s advice that I should not pursue it… sigh. Nevertheless, I am glad for all who are registered and are ready for the race of the year. Whether it’s for 10-km, 21-km or the full marathon of 42-km that you are working on, it’s a challenge that should undisputably be a boost on your ego.
This Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2007 has attracted participation from running enthusiasts from all over the world. And for sure, it will continue to do so this and next years to come.For you who have been practising hard for it – do remember: consistency in your practice and in your speed is important. You have about three weeks to inject consistency into your speed and momentum. Perhaps, try not to over exert in the last one-and-a-half week prior to the actual run. If you have not, you should be on a carbo-load from here on. Be sure to have your glaucosamin if you have knee cap injuries due to wear-and-tear challenges – the supplement for the joints.
Above all, have fun. The run is about challenging yourself and feeling the kick. For me, it’s the joy to worship and be with God at the same time as I run. That joy, that closeness with God is most rewarding in the midst of the run.
