1st Penang Bridge Marathon in Life

Finisher of 10km Penang Bridge Marathon
27/11/2016

Oh, how I despise running! 

Being dragged into this by my friends, I didn't have a tiny bit of regret. I am surprised by myself that I managed to finish the route. 

Yup, you won't know your limits until you challenge it. 

Suddenly I have this crazy thought that I should participate in the full marathon next year. Am I being too optimistic and overly-confident? 

Now, shall I add a few specks of side story here?

I met the people that I don't want to meet along the route, and ahem... it's not pleasant but somehow I could still bear with it. But imagine you meeting the worse person you could meet in your life whom you have already throw away and try to get over with it. Funny, as if it were a curse. As if he was trying to realise the promise he'd made before that. What does the universe imply by showing him to me here and there? The chances of meeting him is even higher than those times when we were in good terms. 

Then I met these ladies who ignored me despite us being colleagues for an event. Is it because I wrote harsh truths in my post-mortem report? Is it why they hate me so much that they can't bring themselves to say a simple "hi" to me? Fine. If that's so, let's forget we knew each other.

It's sad to accept that people who used to know each other can turn into strangers anytime. What make them don't want to recognise each other? Hate? Shame? Pride?  Or sentimental issues? 

Whatever it is, they have signed the contract of being strangers in my life, and I will treat them so.

There's nothing to lose anyway. Save me energy for greeting as well.
