Back home and clearing my leaves

Came back from Siem Reap last Wednesday. You know what? I finally fulfilled my long time dream of traveling to the Ang Kor Wat/Thom, visiting the ancient city and temples. The weather there was dry, humid and hot, but it was all worth it. Be it climbing up the temples on hands and feets, or walking tired, really, I like it, and I may plan to go there again in the future!

Yes, now back to home, but hey, I still have leaves to clear till end of the year! I reckon I can take a break again, and perhaps leave for another short trip this weekend or next. Hehehe...

Run...run...run...

I completed my 3rd marathon run last Sunday. It was one of the toughest of the 3 I ran for the last 3 years. Some of the running routes were new and long, but certain places that were so scenic that fellow runners stopped to take pictures.

The day was abit dry, the sun beaming down on us, hot in the late morning! Run, walk, stop, that was the strategy we were told to adopt in order to complete the run. Drinks and banana were given out at some points of the run, as usual. I had a banana given to me at the 14KM mark, I held on to it till the 30KM mark, and eat it! Ha...Ha...

The last 10KM was the toughest, my knees and leg were crying pain, but like the others, had to carry on. Finally, I made it! It was a fantastic feeling, but too bad no one was at the finishing point to receive me. I wished you were there...
