Asthma Run-11/5/08
Me, wearing the Asthma Run T-shirt posing with my friends after the run .
This is the 5km run to celebrate World Asthma Day . Its an event to inform people more about Asthma and how to control it . I almost didn't go for it because my legs were a bit aching from Saturday's pia at Bomba Run.
But then ,I remembered the effort that Frank put in for me to register the run and also being an asthmatic myself , I thought I should actually go for this run no matter what my condition . So I went for it , this time I wasn't late at all and they gave the runners a free T-Shirt .
The organisers strongly suggested that everyone that had the free T-shirt to wear it . I wore it even though some of my friends who got it didn't wear it . I just wanted to show support in this way .
It's actually easier to run with the running vest but since this is just a fun run , I didn't really pia at all and just started slowly from the back . After awhile , my body warmed up and I started to go faster especially towards the last 1.5 km . At this point overtook a few people including Geraldine ( The fast lady ) and also Tay Poh Chye .
Came in 24:47 , wasn't sure how I did in this route last time .
In conclusion , this run also reminded me that exactly about a year ago , this was my first competitive run after recovering from my operation and that time I was even slower and going at jogging and talking pace .
One year has passed so fast and thank you Jesus for helping me to recover from the operation !

Weeks back, I joint the neighborhood 8km run in Bukit Jalil. Do let me know, if there is any run in the future. Do drop by my site and leave a foot print!
