ゆっくりとした時間の中で

i'm like 7.5 hours away from the most impressive thing imo tat i will be doing this year... altho getting my eyes exposed to laser comes a very close second lolz.  but tat one was more of jus lying back and letting the dr do his thing, but this will take determination, perseverance, and an entire jent concert for me to get thru :p  altho technically, i haven't managed to run all 10 km yet, so it will be more of a half-jog-half-walk thing, but still - i reckon the sense of achievement will still be pretty good. 

deciding to actually try this out has been a learning experience for me.  and i've discovered things bt myself tat i haven't b4 - which was pleasantly unexpected, since i've always thot i'm a pretty self-aware person.  my body and i have been communicating better since august LOLZ - and i realised to make it thru long-distance running, it's not jus endurance, which surprisingly isn't wat i lack too much, but also other things, like posture and muscle control, which is all the more important when a blob-for-footprint person like me gets it in her head to undertake such activities.

it's also made me a bit more... flexible in re-evaluating decisions tat i've made?  or maybe... helped me take a more realistic view of the goals and targets i set for myself - it seems like i've learnt all the more to take things a little easier, a little slower: i can't run the full 10 klicks, but i'm truly halfway there, and eventually i'll prob be able to do all of it, but i dun have to rush myself.  sometimes it's also bt the getting there too :)  and when one steps back and takes a larger, longer, big-picture view, isn't the world wonderful with all its possibilities spread out in front of u?
