"If you run, you are a runner.
It does not matter how fast or how far.
It does not matter if today is your first day or
if you have been running for twenty tears.
There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get.
You just run."
~ John Bingham ~

My story at Standard Chartered Full Marathon 2018...
At the start of the marathon,
I saw..
Everyone running at their own pace.
Some enjoyed talking while running.
Some already sprinting far from my sight.
I feel..
The nice cool morning breeze.
My heart beats pretty stable.
My body starts to warm up as I keep running.
Halfway through the marathon,
I saw..
Some had slowed down their footsteps.
Some breathing heavily trying to keep running.
Some decided to stop and rest.
I feel..
My stomach grumbled as I need food.
My body keep sweating.
My mind is telling me to rest if I need to.
Almost at the end of the marathon,
I saw..
Some had completed the run.
Some had injured.
Some are still running.
I feel..
My energy is low.
My right leg started to feel pain.
I am fighting against my mind to never give up on the run.
When I end the marathon,
I saw..
People cheering for the runners.
Runners smiling happily as they finish the run.
People taking photos of their achievements.
I feel..
Grateful as I completed another full marathon.
Happy as I can finally rest and have a nice meal.
Exhausted after running non-stop for about 6 hours.
Life like a marathon..
Everyone have to go on their own route in life.
Either you run or walk at your own pace.
You may face obstacles, challenges and helps.
You may experience injuries, failure and victory.
You may feel pain, hopeless and happy.
No matter what,
Live at your own pace and never give up on Life.
Because at the end of your Life,
How you see Life?
Will be what Life have give you.
Although I decided to stop running for full marathon,
I will never stop running..=)
