It has been a year and a half since my last update in this space. I take comfort in the fact that some of the things in my life have remained constant. One of the few notable stuff that I did is that I finally gotten my lazy ass to do a full marathon. Timing wasn't that great but, hey, it is a start. Next aim is to do a sub-6 Hours run and maybe, just maybe, cross the Oprah Line, somewhere down

Distance : 21.1 km Time : 2 hours 53 mins Playlist : Spiritual State (Nujabes), Hybrid Theory (Linkin Park), AEnima (Tool)   Sundown Marathon will always hold a special place in my heart as it was the first running event that I joined, back in 2010. I remember that the event then was held at Changi Exhibition Centre and the route was the service road used by the Changi Airport staff.

Distance : 8.2 km, 1% elevationTime : 1 hourFinally decided to join a gym, after procrastinated about it for way too long. I did one session of complimentary personal training and discovered muscles at places which I did not know existed. Frankly, gym sessions aren't too bad. Now if only I can keep at it long enough to make it worth my moolah.

Thanks for stopping by but there's still nothing here .. Oh you're still here? Well I hope that you have been doing fine. As for me, I am still pretty much neck deep in my pile of work. It may seem endless but I can see that glimmer of light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. Or maybe it's just my eyes playing tricks at me. Anyway I better be back staring at my monitor; my codes ain't gonna

woke up today to an empty room in an empty house and feeling the emptiness .. everyone is kinda miles away from me .. anyway i did not make it to the state of char kueh tiaw for the bridge run since it coincides with mom's birthday (yes, i almost forgotten it) .. the good/bad (can't decide which is which) news is that the sg race is in two weeks time .. we'll see how that turns out .. not much

while running the kl marathon, I saw a guy in front of me with bird droppings on his shoulder. So I ran up to him and saidMe : Dude, there's bird poo on your shoulder. Guy : *looks at his shoulder* SH!T!!Me : Exactly. *grins and runs off*As for the run itself, I think I did ok. I managed to run a steady pace and controlled breathing but it is my legs that gave up by seizing up towards the end.

this is the second kl marathon that i'll be doing .. since i have not done any preparation for it, my 'battle plan' is just to have an easy run and to log some miles .. let see how that goes, eh?

specifically the running bandwagon .. I have missed two of the runs that I have signed up for and to make it worse, I have not been doing any run on my own .. The saving grace (I hope) is that I have been attending Rebel Bootcamp to boost u my core and upper body strength ..Anyway the point of this post is to psych myself up for this weekend's KL Marathon .. Gonna do some light running tonight

Happy 30th Birthday to me and by extension, Happy 2nd Birthday* to honweng.com.I know that this is a day late but I was practically knocked out by the cocktail of medicines that the doctor prescribed on suspiscion of H1N1. Anyway, after a day of rest I am feeling much better. Headache has gone, no longer feverish, mild sore throat and just a slight hint of flu. Hopefully everything will clear up
