My 1st Marathon

My 1st 10km Marathon! The ladies who follow from the start called Katherine.

Did you see the guy besides me, he purposely run later than me and saying: "U do it very well, run in a good pace, you are not the last one, I still behind you." When I too tired, stop the run, walking in the journey he started saying: " You can do it."

Thanks for him, motivate me for my balance 6km run, His name is Piers. (Hope I did spell correctlly)

On that morning, actually I have overslept, suppose to be wake up 5am to prepare myself for the run, but I wake up only 7:10am which the run started. Elena called me 19 times but still did not wake me up, (phone on silent mode). At 1st, I was stuggled whether shall I go for the run eventhough is late, with my mom's word "GO NOW", I quickly ready myself for the run. I am late by about 36 min, the 1st runner was back from 10 km run, and I just started. This is my run record.

Elena, my friend, we join the marathon together, she wait the at the finishing line for more than half an hour! Touched and Surprise!!. I am not alone in the run.

We are enjoy in the 10km Marathon organised by Nestle, Love Your Heart Run.
