A couple of mths ago, I went to [East Coast Park] for a run organised by my organisation... And today is the 2nd time tt I've took part in such events... I didn't participate willingly though... It's just tt the alternative of not participating in the run is much worse than running itself... To deploy me @ some water point and wait for the whole even to be over is hell for me as this would mean tt I'll be those few to be dismissed last... Which equates to reaching home @ a even later time... Uh-huh... Not good... So I opted for the run...
I know, some of you might think, why not apply some leave and relax @ home instead??? I could've done tt... But I feel dumb... Imagine... On a [Fri], you come all the way to work and then when it's lunch time, you leave back home... It's like, why bother to appear @ work anyway??? And then there's the other... To apply leave for the whole day... Tt make more sense... But then again, why waste 1 day of leave just to escape some run tt's actually beneficial to my health, considering tt I don't exercise much???
Thus, @ abt 1500 hrs, we headed towards the park @ the other end of this tiny little dot and the run's 7 km... For those preparing for the upcoming [Army Half Marathon]... For me to run tt distance would be suicidal... So I settled for a run/ walk combination... I ran abt, say, 2 km before walking all the way back to the start point... Therefore, effectively, I've covered abt 4 km... Which is a personal best as it's been a long time since I've actually used my legs for such long distance... The amt of calories burnt must be a record high... Heke... ^_^
Even though I was running alone, the sight of certain part of the park does bring back some really fond memories of the past few times tt I've been to there with [The Gang]... It's like I could literally see myself and everyone there riding their bikes... And of me and [Cass] riding the double bike... Of [JY] doing her rolling blading and falling... *Sugh* Those are the fond memories of the good old times... Wonder when will we ever do such things like tt again and actually be 1 big entity and have fun??? *Ponders*
Nostalgia aside, while I was running and walking, I was ppl gazing as well and since it's the sch hols... There're tons of teens around and some of the guys look hot... Note tt I'm using the word 'look'... This is because from afar, they do look like they're good-looking with those exposed tanned torsos and I'm short sighted anyway... >_< And then there's the problem of staring too intently @ them for too long... I'll be damned if they notice this weird guy tt's staring @ them... So I'm reduced to sneaking a peak once in a while to imagine their alleged good looks and tanned torsos... LOL... The degeneration of my mind is accelerating now tt I'm in an environment tt's dominated by guys... x_x
Oh well... Before I end off, I think I saw tt actor from [I Not Stupid], [Shawn Lee], today while I was @ [Lot 1] to fill my poor empty stomach tt's been grumbling ever since I've done the run... He's handsome... Tt's all I can say abt him... But he doesn't have tt innocence tt he has always portrayed in those movies... Gee... Which is like so predictable... After all, reel life is just tt... An act...
