Standard Charter Run 2008

2 years ago, i vowed that one day i wanted to join this biggest event. Last year, I still did not pick up the courage and given myself the excuse to join the big day this year instead.

This year, 2008 had arrived and i finally had the guts to register for this run and very much looking foward for it. Telling myself that i will start practising from Sep 2008 onwards, assuming that it will be just nice to welcome the big run. However, months passed by and i did not get started at all until 3 weeks ago.

Running on a sunday near my house was something i had never done before especially along the newly-opened expressway linked to CCK. I ran to and fro and I did not regret register myself for the big run. Running is just so fun.

2 days later, luck wasn't on me. I sprained my ankle while walking on a flat road with a flat shoe. Well, this is not the 1st time so i did not pay much attention to it. Days passed by and the pain increased. Only then i realised i really injured my ankle this time. Went to see Dr Yee and thought i will be cured in awhile which it always did. But no, the pain did not go away.

On the 2nd weekend, DD bring me to see sinseh who had cured his thumb weeks ago. But luck wasn't on me again. The shop was closed. So i try another sinseh. My ankle was banaged and of cos in great pain after heartless rubbing by that sinseh.

3rd weeks arrived and it was the big run. I knew the answer. For the past weeks, i did not attend my favourite class because i can't. So how can i possible to run? Again, I went to that sinseh whom his shop is closed that day and again my ankle was bandage. But this time the condition was even worst. Not only i don't feel any better, it caused super itchness on my skin.

Today is sunday. Everyone is running away but me. I have to rest at home with a pain ankle and with itchy rashness on my skin...Maybe i should go for an x-ray to check what is exactly wrong with my ankle. As for now, i wonder how am i going to sleep with such a frasturing itchy feeling.
