Let's Go


Planning

After weeks of researching and making training plans, I finally got all my research and plans and headed off to my supervisor to ask for her advice. As she had ran a marathon (or two) before, she had great feedback and tips. After the visit I immediately began the new plans, which are ready and commence on Monday 30th September 2013 (tomorrow).

Pre-reflection

'Running a 42 kilometer marathon! Impossible!' is what someone would respond to the goal I have set, especially knowing I am not quite a strong runner. However, I feel that training for the marathon will change the way I think and the way I manage my health for the long run. Not only will it benefit me health-wise, but also the chosen charity (Cancer Charity Foundation) that the money from those who will sponsor me will go to, will hopefully be benefited greatly too. What motivates me to do this is knowing that at the end of the marathon, I'll be able to look back with pride and accomplishment and knowing that I change lives of little kids who suffer from cancer. 

So let's go...
