OMG, 1 boy died.

And so, 1 casualty in the run yesterday. It's a sad thing. Not like the marathon is something worth doing. Before doing it, why don't you read an excerpt from Wikipedia about marathons:

"The name Marathon comes from the legend of Pheidippides, a Greek messenger. The legend states that he was sent from the battlefield of Marathon to Athens to announce that the Persianshad been defeated in the Battle of Marathon (in which he had just fought), which took place in August or September, 490 BC. It is said that he ran the entire distance without stopping and burst into the assembly, exclaiming "Νενικήκαμεν" (Nenikékamen, 'We have won.') before collapsing and dying."

HE DIED PEOPLE!

Yes, he did fight a war before that, but he probably trained for quite a period of time. So if you are not sure whether you can survive/complete the run, don't run. If you want to try, don't over push yourself. Rushing into something this tedious is testing your life, not endurance. Endurance comes only when you are fit enough to survive.

Live to fight another day.

Or else, just take taichi, or martial arts. Tedious, but controlled. Call me at 92717437 for more info, or drop by at our school at Eastgate building, just beside roxy square along East Coast Road. Level 5. Gentle Studios.
