Running Man

I don't know when I realised something about me. That I really love running. Since I was a little boy, I really love running. When I was in primary school the one event that I always look for and participate is any event that involves running. I was in the 4x100 event and also in the 200m events. I tried long distance but my endurance wasn't enough for me. But in essence, I love running. I don't really understand why but running made me feel good.

So, after sometime, I decided to start running. First day was like hell, why not? I hasn't running for years. The day after that my body was aching like everywhere. Especially my legs but some how I felt good!

So, after that I never look back and kept on running every two days. Since I always reach home by 7pm or later. I ran after 9pm. I started for 2.4km then maintained that length for days until one day, I felt I can go even farther. So, I decided to increase the distance to 3km.

A few days ago, I felt I can go farther, so I increase my running to 3.5km. Still I felt I can go farther still. I don't know how maybe it as my running technique that I pick up on You Tube by a long distance coach, which really helps. Or because I've picked up endurance while running for days. I'm not sure but I'm feeling fitter than than I was like a month ago. In fact I never felt fitter since after DPA!

Yesterday was the best achievement ever. I ran 5km non-stop. I was running for 33minutes. I couldn't believe it. I complete a 5km course. Why is it my best achievement so far? I never, I repeat never do 5km running for non stop! That is why this is my first 5km ever! I felt like a super athlete when I completed the run. Hahaha!! Even thought I wasn't that a biggy deal for the Ultramarathoner but it is a biggy deal for me.

I'm looking forward to my next long distance run. I decided that in my weekdays I maintain my 3km run. And go for longer distance on weekends. I'm watching my time but the most importantly is that I enjoy my running. That is the most important thing of all. enjoy running. Because that what I love to do running.
