Didn't intend for this to become an exercise blog, but after a whole day of activity today, i've just realised how much more in shape i'm in than 2 months back!
Guess it started early June, when decided to get a program going, and yups...it was a good retreat and release for me each time...just sweating away all the stress and letting out all my frustrations and pain during the exercise! Running is as therapeutic as bus rides for me, i can pray and just keep running and that helps me keep going!
My program soon became a daily exercise circuit of like basic army 5BX stuff, plus max reps each time i pass the pull up bar downstairs...which is several times a day...so yups...felt like army again! ahaha! just that this time, it is on my own motivation, not cuz my instructors! Actually, i think the most intensive times i had were in S.Korea, as i exercised just to keep warm! and i could actually keep going on and on while praying, and the double-decker bed was perfect to do pull-ups and and concentrate on strengthening my right shoulder (the one that pops)...
So yes...it's paying off! today, i realised that after my regular 7-9am soccer game, i could still play games at Past Vs Present, and thereafter, even at Youthphoria! played another hour of captain's ball! That's almost a whole day of exercise! feels just like secondary school days! =)
Was really good to meet and catch up with my friends! Met my batchmate who left her lawyering with Harry Elias several years back to pursue a renewed passion, TONS more fulfillment, and more family time! (Good perspective girl! Family is definitely more important!) And another who is flying off to the US for 18mths! He and I met so many umpteen years back that we can't even trace it! ahhaha! Best wishes there dude!
Oh...plus met my littlest sis who was selling tickets to the play, yups....of course i'm going! It's my littlest sis! I'm proud of her! And ahaha! bumped into Pamela, she's not only teaching my sis, she's also in the play! ahhaha! and...my littlest sister (Sec 1) has sprouted so much that she's gonna shoot past me soon, she taller than Pam now! Gosh! all the tallies in my family!
Sad note...Junlong got injured during past versus present games after he accidentally collided with the terminator (Marshall) and another fellow...aggravated a back injury...last i heard, he's still in pain but is home, and on MC til tuesday...gonna keep him in prayer.
okies...now, gonna do some more stretching before i sleep just so i can dissipate the lactic acid and not feel so sore tmr!
