Thousand Man Run 2018

Completed another run for the year. This year I only participate 5km. So now there are 3 medals in relates to the thousand man run. One for Papa (year 2016), one for mummy (year 2017) and one for the two kids (year 2018).

Sinking Ship

If you are on a sinking ship, will you seek to get aboard another ship or be the last to leave? And if you are the last to leave, does that make you a good leader? And if it does make you a good leader, does it make you a good person in a sense that are you being responsible to your family and yourself? One thing that we can be sure of is that you are being responsible to the ship. However, if you are not the owner of the ship, will you still be the last to leave? And will it end well? Meantime, in many occasions when the ship is going down, the owner is the first to dispose the ship (whilst there is still value to it). Does that make him a bad leader? Perhaps so, but he sure is a good businessman.

Passat 50k

Here goes 50,000km. It was like the car is shouting at me to snap a photo as it hit 50,000km, although I was driving 70km/hour. We somehow communicate! It just four months ago when it hit 40,000km. No doubt extremely high usage. How much time did I actually spent driving every week I wonder.

Coffee Expert Wannabe

Attended a coffee making seminar (with HY) as we strive to be Coffee Expert (wannabe). We definitely acquire some basic knowledge and improving coffee making skills. Nonetheless, no matter how hard I tried, coffee still smell better in solid state, prior to liquid form.

Std Chart Marathon 2018

This year’s Standard Chartered Marathon is earlier than previous year. Though I am not as prepared as prior year with much lesser practices, I am advantages amid lighter body weight. I started the race sprinting (in the first 3km) but really slow down in the balance 7km, although I didn’t stop running in most part of the race (with the exception of 1 short up hill session and drinking station). I finish the race 1 hour 6 mins 21 seconds, which is 8 minutes faster than last year and last 4 attempts since 2013. Ranking is 240 vs 398 the year earlier. Result is satisfying although not sure if I can keep this result (as well as body weight) in future race.
