sunday morning. just got home from the terry fox run at sentosa. i don't know how but i managed to drag myself out of bed when it was the perfect day to sleep in with the rain pouring outside and me, comfortably warm and snug uder my blankie. but when i started running, i guess that was all i could think of. wasn't really thinking or wondering what i was doing there. i just knew i was there and the only thing i came to do was run. didn't really want to go for it at first but i said i would so i did. sometimes, there are things which i know i don't want to do. but something (doesn't even have to be something concrete or tangible) will make me say yes anyway. sometimes for no apparent reason at all. like i was meant to be there....(shrugs)

i guess something hit me while running the marathon today. (which is hardly a marathon cos it was only 4km haha) it's not just about stamina and reaching the end. i found i was getting impatient alot. there were SOOOOOOOO many people there. and it really affected my momentum. all of a sudden, someone would stop infront of me. or i'd be running and be stopped by a line of people walking together stretched across the whole path and i'd have to run on the side of the path which was all muddy and soggy. others would try to squeeze past you when there was clearly no space. all sorts of things. but that's life, ain't it?

and ain't that a funny thing...that running with people makes it easier and harder at the same time.

From first to last
The peak is never passed
Something always fires the light that gets in your eyes
One moment's high, and glory rolls on by
Like a streak of lightning
That flashes and fades in the summer sky
