me, running?

hehe, in the 'breaking your limits/fears' cheesy stories corner, this could possibly be my best entry. In my pre 2000 part of life, while I always did some sports(soccer, basketball, ping-pong-if you count it for a sport), running was always an "off-limits" area, because of my f*ing spleen which, after more then 50 m of continous running would hurt beyond belief(luckily it didn't behave the same way during the run-stop-run rythim of the other sports).

Even after getting rid of the spleen in 00, I pretty much lived under the same assumption for quite a while...That is till 90% of my friends in SG became a bit of jogging-freaks and so I thought I'd at least give it a try...So, 6 months down the line, finishing(with a pretty decent time as well) a 12km race was a bit of a shocker, not in itself, but more when looking into my (non)running past...

Marathon races, here I come... ( Mom, I'm kidding, don't go having a panic attack on this :)...
