Finally I had completed one of my ever outstanding resolution, that was to complete a full marathon. I did it alright on the 7th Dec 2008. I could hardly believe that I actually cover the distance of 42.195 km that morning. While crossing the finishing line, the overwhelming good feeling was unbeatable. To add on to my blissful accomplishment, I cross the finishing line hand in hand with Daniel and with a huge smile on my face.

We took a total of 7hrs 2mins and 30 secs to complete our quest. It was surely not a fantastic timing but we were truly very proud of ourselves. It took really a great due to determination to finish this quest. Especially the last 10 km, every step was made with much effort. Our body hurts in almost every aspects but we keep telling ourselves that we can do it and must finish what we had started.

Check out the photo above, which I have taken with my friends after the run. We have all make it! Warm welcome to first timers Daniel, Sharleen and Lesley.  Hey you guys are really great, and deserve a good Xmas meal. The meal thing is under construction at the moment. Details will be provided soon.

Personally, I think the agony was really memorable. I wouldn’t had make it without advice from Uncle Lee and encouragement from Daniel. Hey guess what, I think I will surely be running my second marathon very soon. It a choice between the one in Phuket or Sundown in Singapore.

June 2009, here I come.
