the day that was....

Today has been an eventful day for me. OK, first the run.

i woke up at 7 in the morning - an event in itself! i peeped outside just to see how the world looks like that early!It was almost 8 by the time we reached the place. And we were amazed at the turn out. There was quite a crowd. We got our bibs and t-shirts, emptied our bladders and waited for the horn to sound. 1 hr 30 mins was our target. And i surprised myself by going on and on... Maybe my muscles were still groggy to protest, it being early morning and all that. In the practice run, i could never run for more than 5 minutes at a stretch. i think i walked for maybe just a km and ran the rest of the 9km! i think maybe i finished among the first 30 or so women. Will have to wait for them to put up the result. OK, the next target is the half marathon!

Was invited to dinner by the juniors. The food was OK. On the way back, S let me drive his car. It was quite late in the night and the roads were empty! Thank god for that. i got the speed upto around 50kph. It was fun. i am definitely going to drive after i go back. Maybe i should buy myself a car.

A good day. ummmmmm.....
