Lilin was doing the 5 km run and as usual I was doing the 10 km run. Nothing unusual just running around bukit Jalil neighborhood. Lots of small hills making it difficult at times to maintain the speed I wanted. As I was approaching the 5 km I realised that even the 5 km distance is getting tougher for this old gal. I used to be able to finish 10 km under 60 minutes but these days completing a 10 km is getting longer.
I only managed to complete the race in 65 minutes, and was number 19 in my category. If only I finished within 60 minutes I might have won a trophy. Lilin finished her 5 km run in 44 minutes and got number 40. As usual stayed behind after the race for the lucky draw. They were giving away digital 2 digital cameras and 3 LCD TVs. Unfortunately, we didnt win any prizes. Its cool better luck next time.
This will probably be the last race we will be running for 2010. It has been a fruitful year in comparison with 2009. I hardly ran any races due to personal and family commitments. I was not able to exercise regularly and this resulted in weight gain. However, this time around with regularly running to train for the races, I am happy to say I managed to lose a little weight and gain much high from the endophine outflow.
Here's Goodbye to Running for 2010. Huff huff puff puff see you in 2011.
