Terry Fox Run 2008
Last year (read more) was more like a fun walk than a proper run and if I remember correctly I hardly even sweat.
And this year I thought to myself, if I’m going to have to get up early and run anyway why not go for the extra mile?
Since my once-a-week gym regime has always been 5km on the treadmill, 6km shouldn’t be that difficult right?
But I forgot to remind myself that those 5km treadmill regime was actually back in the UK days when I was much fitter. I’ve long given up running for sometime since I started working in KL. 
How?
With my inconsistent weekly gym routine and occasional jog at the TTDI park, I was discreetly worrying sick that I might pass out half way.
But there’s no turning back.
Terry Fox Run wasn’t as crowded as last year. Even the MS group was much smaller compared to last year. My company didn’t organize a groupie for this event so I joined my ex-colleagues. But there was only 3 of us who did the advanced route and the rest went for the standard 3km.
I was the only girl. 
And of course, I was so busy running I didn’t have the chance to take many photos. I have to say it was quite challenging to my standard. Running on pavement roads feels really different compared to running on treadmill. Uphill isn’t the same as gradient.
It was way, way tougher.
But I did it! 
Some cam whoring moments of my friends to share here…
Even though 6km is probably a very subtle distance to many, it surely feels like an achievement to me!
My next goal is to climb Mt. KK by next year!
