We Run This
Monday is at it's end and I've gotta say that today was not a bluesy day for me after all! I guess if you go to sleep dreading about the day ahead of you, the day will tend to just go down south the moment you wake up. Like a self-fulfilling prophecy, if you will. What you resist, persists.. always remember that!
Anyways, today was a great day.. I have been feeling so good the past few days. I guess I've gotta attribute it to all the running and working out that I've been doing since last week. Yes! I FINALLY got back on track with my work outs since Raya! My gosh! I've been sooo lazy. So now that I'm back to running, my dear "crazy-for-running" blogging buddy, Nessa, has been urging me to sign up for the Nike WeRun10KL race this November. After much encouragement for my other running addict friend, Massy, I decided to take up the challenge.
Hey, if my friends have faith in me, then it's hard not to believe that I COULD do it! :)
I've got countless of friends who are running addicts and they've always been super encouraging. So if you wanna say I'm hopping on this bandwagon, then yes! I shamelessly admit it.
So this will be my first race! I was supposed to join Shape Night Run (5km) but it was too close to Ramadhan at that time and the hubby was against it. Then there was the Putrajaya Night Run 2011 which is happening this upcoming October 15th.. but I missed the registration date. So I wasn't able to join the fun run for that. I gotta admit, I narrowly got to register for this Nike WeRun10KL race because when they opened the registration last Friday, places were snapped up so fast and by Sunday afternoon, registration was already full.
However, I still managed to register over at the Nike outlet in Midvalley today, so all's good.. and I'm set to race! I've got some 6-8 weeks of training to go through and I know it's not gonna be easy but I'm not giving up! Thank God for all my running friends who have given me their unwavering support!
I'm a little late for Music Monday, but better late than never. Here's "We Run This" by Missy Elliot. A great song that I love having when I'm working out!
Happy Music Monday, have a great week ahead and wish me luck, y'all! :)

That's why I really admire all these ppl who can actually run and finish till the end summore... good luck Shemah, I'll be rooting for you and I'm sure you can do it! Good to hear you are back to W.O. and that you're feeling good lately.. I wanna feel good too but i know myself and exercising or W.O. is just not me...jgn nak berangan la GP!

Happy MM, dearie!
i will be running too..all the best beb!!
Hi LJ!! :) Never say never!! :) Like Nike says, Just Do It!! Seriously, just do, don't think.. you'll surprise yourself at how capable you are of doing things that you didn't ever think to do or imagine yourself doing. It's not couldn't.. it's just wouldn't. hahahaha
So never write this out of your book! Who knows, one day, you'll be running 10km easily! :)
Marzie!! :)
Hahaha boleh punya lah.. once you start running.. the rest will just fall into place.. you do it often enough and you're only gonna get better. Faster and further..
Hahahaha I pun training now to run non stop.. furthest I ran non stop was about 6.5km.. so I have another 3.5 km to push!! However, I'm not familiar with the route.. so I don't know how tough it's gonna be. Whatever it is, I just hope I finish the race and have a great time doing it. LOL!
Hahahaha if working out is just not for you, then try something else then.. like shopping!!! hahahaha walking around and carrying shopping bags pun can be considered working out also! hahahaha Happy MM to you too! :)
Hey Bill! :)
She's awesome! hope Missy makes a comeback soon! :) Thanks for the wishes.. can't wait to see how it goes!! LOL! and never say never.. just give it a try and you may end up surprising yourself! :)
I'm super excited too, Massy!!! YAY!! :) Yeah, hopefully one day we all will be able to run together.. however, you're soooo out of my league!! You're a marathoner!!!
Thanks! :)
Yeah!! FINALLY!! Thanks to you!! hahahahahaha I'm sure I won't forget my 1st run too! It's the run of all runs.. my maiden run!! :) Oh I can't wait. I'm trying not to push myself so much and just take it easy.. but I can't wait.. I just really wanna complete a 10km without breaking my run!
You're absolutely right about that, Nessa!!! During training, I keep on repeating the mantras that you've been saying to me too!! LMAO! It really does keep me going!!
Yeah! I love this song! But only when I'm working out on the elliptical or on the bike! I've taken Nick and Massy's advice on not listening to music during runs to have a better pace! :) And yeah, the pros are right! It definitely helps NOT to have music on!
Thanks so much, Caroline!! :) :* :*
Hahaha then perhaps you and other friends join runs and make him feel left out.. then lama2 he will join you also! LOL! :)
Thanks for listening and happy MM to you too! ;)
Thanks for the encouragement, Nick! :) Yeah I hope I don't stress out over this first race.. I'm just paranoid that I'll be super slow in completing the race!
Jeanie!! THanks so much for your support! I really do appreciate it! I can't wait to just go through with everything! :) Glad you enjoyed the song too! :) Happy MM!
Yay! If you do see me, just say hi.. I'll be the one at the back.. the slowpoke runner! LOL!!
Wooo wooo bestnyer run for Nike. I wanted to enter and waited for the dates to be annouced but shoot, the dates is too near my family's vacation. No running before vacation. Huhuhu
So, you'll be running with buddies? How fun! I am so jealous! :-P
