Sorry to type in English, but my Chinese typing is sooooooo...... slow, and I wanna vent my emotions:
My blog has been gathering dust for a whole month, and needless to say the more idle it gets, the more depressing I am......
Have been toiling in office for the past few weeks with a "real fascinating" project, which occasionally eats up a part of my lunch time. My misery, aggravated by the somewhat unstable weather, brought my "running life" more or less to a standstill......
Yesterday I told myself, enough is enough! So I asked my boss for a brief lull of one hour, so that I could run outside. My boss squeezed out the faintest smile I've ever seen, and said "don't get heat stroke, dude", and there I went......
Wow, it was 4 p.m. in the afternoon but the weather was still hellish hot. Only did I learn later, from our small weather station installed in office, that the outdoor temperature was around 34 degrees Celsius. I ran as fast as I could, as if trying to escape from the quagmire I've been stuck in. The 1st km took 4'46". Not too bad, I murmured to myself. I needed 16'34" to complete the first 3 km.
Unfortunately the payback was fast and quick. As soon as I turned around, I was staring right back at the Sun, now dangling in the west with its relentless, unforgiving glare. It easily took my fighting spirit out of me, and on my way back, I had to run some, jog some, and even walk some. It took me all told 36'14" to return to the clocktower near the Cultural Centre, for a journey of 5.6 km.
Anyhow, I'm glad that I start running again. The next window will be coming Tuesday. Wish me good luck that I can make it.
Thanks for your patience to listen to my babbles......at least I feel better now......
