[...] There was no fanfare, no people cheering on the sidelines, no timing chips embedded in specially designed bibs, no commemorative t-shirts nor medals nor certificates. It was just me and my dogged determination to achieve my goal of running 5 kilometres today, the 28th of June, despite not being able to join the KL Marathon. [...]

that’s sad to hear.. I know how much effort must have been put in for the run. I do hope you get to run for the next run or any other run.

thanks for the kind words, everyone. i’m still disappointed but not as mad anymore. i suppose everything happens for a reason. but i’m disappointed anyhow. maybe i’ll just do my own 5K run on my own this weekend. but it just won’t be the same as running with 12,500 other people… (to all malaysians: the marathon will be broadcast live on TV. and many roads in KL will be closed sunday morning!)

jessi: you’re so funny :) ya, the thought of a 5K run is not exactly fun. but believe it or not, you get a certain high after running. and you end up more energized afterwards and require less sleep. whenever i don’t run for a week, i start getting lethargic. that’s the sign i need to put on my running shoes again :)

hay naku mimi, i understand you. lalo na if you’ve been preparing hard and it’s because of the irresponsibility of other people kaya kayo hindi nakaregister. bottomline is, he should have told you sooner para magawan pa ng paraan…

I’m so sorry. I know how frustrated you must be, and I am trying to put this into terms that I would understand because it’s awful to trust someone and then have that trust betrayed. However, all I can think is Shew, I’m glad I don’t have to run a 5K. So sorry that you don’t have to, though.

does he even realize the repercussion of his non-action? he owes you big time! unless he wants his body parts in wolverine’s claws as a kebab.
