It has been a year of milestones for me.
I challenged my limits and what a way to end 2009.
It started off in April when i set myself a target to acieve IPPT gold.
I got it from my second try.
After which i decided to run more and longer distances.
Army half marathon was the first.
I averaged from 30-50km every week,running day in day out.
It paid off as i begin running more comfortably and faster.
Running the full marathon was not on my agenda initially.
But with more than 6mths to train, i thought i'll give it a try.
The training was never easy.
Clocking distances i had never ran before.
It just gets further and further each week.
The completion of the race without stopping was satisfying.
A realistic target was set and i ran well below it.
Well, with my first marathon done, more were to come.
Resolutions for next year is simple, run more and faster.
when the going gets tough, it's just mind over body....
