standard chartered marathon singapore 2013

yey...! another milestone for me :) that was when i crossed the finish line.

yes! i was able to crossed the finish line of 42km after 6 hours 42 minutes. my first full marathon, standard chartered marathon singapore 2013 which was held last december 1. i really didn't expect to make it 'cos i haven't diligently followed my training schedule. but then, my friends encouraged me every time that i can do it. that i just have to be motivated. i haven't had run for the last two months before the event.

in the middle of the marathon i was craving for something to eat. but i wasn't able to buy anything 'cos i don't have cash with me and they will not accept my debit card if i will not purchase minimum of s$20 :(

with preggy lerie, she purposely waited
for me at the finish line

at 30km point, i was so excited to see bananas. i grabbed two and ate all of it... my tummy was so happy, hehehe...

with fritzie,she ran 10km 

i felt so great to cross the finish line and so touched to have friends waiting to congratulate me. lerie & fritz, thank you so much! it meant a lot to me :)) 

yey..! to finisher tee and medal

i hope that this will not be my last full marathon. another bucket list ticked off :D

full crazy for scms 2013

this is it...! am i full crazy...? yes, i will be, hehehe... after running for few 10kms and 21 kms, it's time to run for 42kms :))

there's no turning back...! i finally registered for full marathon this coming 1st of december on standard chartered marathon singapore...

let's do this... i just hope i would be able to finish the race in 5 to 6 hours time and could still walk the next day, hehehe...

my full marathon training schedule

an addition to my bucketlist, which is still to be updated as i have more to come ;) is to run a full marathon...

i've been joining running events for over a year now in various distances, from 10km to 21km... and i wanted to feel and experience how it would be being full crazy, that is to run a full marathon...

i found this 20 weeks intermediate run marathon training plan that can be customized for the upcoming race day. but i have to modify it to accommodate my monthly visitor...

week 1 to week 10

my day 1 started yesterday and i hope to have determination and discipline to go on with this schedule and run the full marathon for standard chartered this coming december 1...

week 11 to week 20, the race day..!!!

encouragement and inspiration are welcome to help me finish the race and fulfill this from my bucketlist...

surprise(d)!!!

i love surprises but i never really experienced it until i am with brad ;)

he kindly asked me to open his luggage and get something for him, and i obediently did it... after opening the pocket of his luggage i was so surprised to see a nicely wrapped gift with a ribbon on it...

i immediately gave him a hug and thanked him a lot :)

but i was so speechless when i torn the wrapper and saw what's inside... i never thought i could have this kind of purse, a coach leather duffle bag... another wish fulfilled... i can tick off #13 from my bucketlist :D thank you so much baby ko...

all i want for xmas is you but you gave me more than that...
