Showdown at Sundown!

31st May 2008
more details here

This is it everyone. 15 days to the day I run my first marathon.
I've made so many changes since the day I planned to run the marathon (about 2 months back). At first I planned to run the Standard Chartered Marathon in December but not before running the 21km half-marathon (Singapore Bay Run ) for experience. However the more I train, the more confident I got and so decided to attempt the nearest available marathon which is the Adidas Sundown Marathon, Singapore's first night marathon.

the 42km route

I've trained for it, did my background research on it, believe in myself and my abilities, and all that is left is to hope for the best. That should be the attitude in facing any challenges.

Will I stumble and fail in my attempt or will I sail past the finish line with hands raise in victory? In Life, there's no guarantee but one thing I can be sure of is that I will do my best!

Some men succeed because they are destined to, but most men succeed because they are determined to.

Everyone has his/her reasons for running the marathon. I especially like the last one :)
