Running - my training

Run for hope, passion run, standard chartered run & so on...

So distant yet so close to me.

I know many runs are held yearly, but...but running for leisure and running for marathon is different. 

I always wanted to try running for marathon, so I decided this time I shall try one. I'm really envious of my friends who went for run yearly.

Running as a leisure activity is so much easier. It can be just 5 to 10mins run, then do some stretching to start the day. I don't have to do it regularly. Maybe once a week or once every 2-3 weeks. So much flexible. 

But running for marathon requires more perseverance and discipline, even for mere 5km. To many, 5km may mean nothing much. But to me, its a something more. I will need more training to be able to keep running forum an hour or more during the 5km run.

Truly I do not know how long I will take to complete the 5km run. But I do know that I don't want to walk more than run in the 5km marathon.

Thus, I need to start training. Training started last sunday. Woo...the feeling is great. I loved the feeling of exercising in the early morning. Seeing others exercising makes me even more happy. Ha...im not alone.

Training is a continuous process till my marathon day. I shall work hard to it.

ps. Tis week off. Coz went swim yesterday morning. Ha.
