This morning I have ran another successful half marathon in a time of 2 hours and 21mins (estimate). This run was special because I was running under Team Monash. I am very proud to be able to run under my alma mater colours.
Another reason why I am particularly proud of today's achievement was because I have proved to myself that I can do anything I put my heart into. The last time I ran a half marathon was 2001, when I was running with my army unit. This time round, I basically ran the race on my own and didn't receive any prior training.
There were times when I really felt that I have hit the wall but I still persisted thanks to a very encouraging quote from a very good friend that constantly persisted in my mind. I dedicated today's race to my very good friend's encouraging quote. "... don't forget to breathe! ... ". I could not have done this distance without your quote!
I have posted more marathon pictures on my gallery - Singapore Marathon 2005
