Quite a walk it was

 

After a year of hiatus,  I was glad for this. It was only 3.8km and we were kindly reminded that it was a WALK, not a run. Of course, some people didn’t bother. They took off like wild creatures. Eesh.

Well, like Sister, I too had a smug look on my face as I crossed the finish line, except that, it was not really a competition. I guess I’m relieved to see that I’m still fit enough to brisk walk for 3.8km up and down the Pantai hill, but I guess it wasn’t that challenging after all. But let’s not be too ambitious. I was super glad that the rest of the day went quite painlessly. My muscles complaineth not. That’s a good sign.

It was quite an interesting event, to be walking for a cause. It’s my first one like this. I don’t have anyone in my family with breast cancer but so far, I’ve seen this disease inflict many other friends’ families. It felt good to be part of an awareness campaign and see the public responding so actively. There were coupla cancer survivors who participated as well. I truly salute them. There was an array of activities lined up after the walk but too bad, I couldn’t stay on as I had to rush off for a meeting.

I will sign up for the next 10km run there is. I will also make sure CY comes along. I shall also drag along two other unwilling souls. Hehe…
