10K Run (Training) – 5
I was determined to complete a 10K run before the training even started today, and I’m glad to say that I’ve made it! The average pace matched my lowest record, but I can work on that later, finishing the entire course without resting is all I ask for at this stage. This is definitely a […]

10K Run (Training) – 4
Just when I thought I may have the chance to finish a 10k run, my running distance (and consequently my confidence) took a dive for the first time in today’s training. I could barely finish 5 km, self-doubt was probably the main culprit. The 10k run is next Sunday, would I stand a chance of […]

10K Run (Training) – 3
Jogged for ~8km this afternoon, my longest run to date! Slowly building up my confidence to finish the 10k run next weekend… During the long jog, I started to think of life as a long marathon run – difficult at first, but become smoother as your muscles are warmed up, and the test of perseverance […]

10K Run (Training) – 2
Dragged myself outside for my second training session. I’m not sure if it’s because of the stuffy weather, the run didn’t seem to be as comfortable this time. I was almost sure I can train myself to challenge a half-marathon after the first training session, but today, I doubt that I can even finish a […]

10K Run (Training)
Finally started training for my 10k-run today, ran 5 km in a bit over half-an-hour, felt good. The real run will be on Nov. 20th, I have about 3 weeks to train up myself. I started logging my runs, it will mark my progress for as long as I continue to run. If my body […]

Solitude
It was a rather long way home after soccer tonight. Tired, but my mind was quite refreshed after the oxygenating exercise, uncountable thoughts crossed my mind. I like this state of mind, especially on a late quiet and cool night… Pondered a bit about life, lately I’ve been rather lukewarm on almost everything (career, relationships, […]

Badminton Competition
Joined a badminton competition with my friends this afternoon, I never am too keen in joining any kind of competitions, but it’s different when I’m playing as a team. We had lost all 5 sets, not a single game was won, a total lost! I was quite disappointed at myself because even though I’ve been […]

RTHK Programmes
Continued my indulgence in the RTHK treasure trove… Watched the entire series of the new <<香港故事>>, it was about mentorship of a variety of trades, brings back memories of all the teachers/mentors who had taught me in the past. I’m thankful to have so many people willing to teach and guide me in the many […]

BTBC
Went to Sunday worship, then lunch, then went back church again for some basketball. This is the same routine for the 3 Sundays I was here. In fact, this was pretty much the same routine for most of the Sundays in the 10+ years I attended BTBC. I know I’m soon going to miss my […]

A New Venture
Had a sushi dinner with 3 of my UW classmates at a restaurant I haven’t been to for years. Then I met up with 2 other classmates for drinks and to watch Game 5 of NBA Finals (Way to go Dallas!). Too bad all 6 of us couldn’t meet at the same time, but I’m […]
