Newton Challenge 2015: The 12 KM Run

-
Assalamualaikum,



Alhamdulillah, semalam (Ahad, 8 Februari 2014) berjaya menamatkan larian 12 km untuk Newton Challenge Penang 2015. Yeay~! Dah exceed target tahun ni - 10 km. Setakat ni paling jauh 8 km. Mencabar jugak nak habiskan baki 4 km. Masuk kilometer ke-9, jari kaki mula melecet dan segala sendi dan otot dah mula rasa terbeban. Abdomen pun mula cramp. Naik bukit pulak (dendam terbaru: Mount Erskine!). By 10th kilometer, tenaga memang dah takde. The hardest part? Mestilah the final 2 km. Mental kot! Tapi berlari bersama rakan-rakan Revert Sports Club (RSC) membawa banyak perbezaan. Walaupun bukan berlari dalam kumpulan atau one-to-one pacing, you know everyone is putting their effort to complete the run and that we will meet at the finishing line. 

The route
Kilometer 9 ke 10 tu yang bikin menangis...


"YOU ARE YOUR LIMIT". Begitu slogan Newton Challenge Penang 2015. Rasa puas hati dan hilang semua penat saat mendapat ucapan tahniah daripada petugas yang menghulurkan medal. My precious! Hahahaha. Tak jemu mata memandang tau. Walaupun medal tu bukanlah seketul jongkong emas dan masa larian pun bukanlah comei sangat, tetap rasa puas hati. It's the experience that is more valuable. Kalau tak cuba sekarang, I will never know.

Sungguh gembira rasa hati lalalala ^___^

Crossing the finishing line: Dengan senyuman sampai ke telinga. Hahaha

My precious~!

For that, I would like to thank Mr. R for offering me this opportunity. Ya, I am still alive. Tak terfikir pun akan memasuki acara 12 km. Padahal masa Kak W ajak masuk 3.5 km, aku punya lah negatif kan. Hehehe. I guess I can't say no to you (except for 21 km :p). Terima kaseh jugak to my running patners Miss J and Miss I. Running with them makes it more possible. Masuk kilometer ke-9 tu dah rasa sangat penat dan sakit dan dah nak menangis. These two girls are the inspiration.

My darling running partners and a new friend.

Revert Sports Club (RSC) super supportive family.

Running Lesson with RSC, So Far

Haruko Akagi
Let's move forward together!
Discipline. With discipline, most anything is possible.
And focus. Most anything is possible if you put your mind into it.

Bila aku mula berlari, kesihatan menjadi lebih penting dari biasa. Jadi power office girl dan couch potato pun perlu jaga kesihatan. Apatah lagi bila terlibat dengan aktiviti yang memerlukan stamina dan ketahanan.
Perlu makan dengan diet yang seimbang dan boleh memberi kebaikan kepada running lifestlye.
Perlu cukup tidur (read: tidur awal) supaya cukup rehat dan dapat lebih masa (read: bangun lebih awal) untuk latihan.
In the past, I used to think that running is all physical. But that is not true. Being fit physically is only a part of it. Berfikiran positif sahaja tidak cukup untuk menamatkan walaupun larian sejauh 5 km. Mental pun perlu high endurance. Badan cergas, otak cerdas.
Apa lagi..? Perlu lebih teratur kerana berlari telah ditambah dalam senarai aktiviti yang sedia padat. Mesti adil dan rasional. Need to improve time management skills.
Dan, kerana berlari bersama Revert Sports Club (RSC) adalah satu inisiatif dakwah, perlu juga perbaiki diri. Be a better person.

I have a very long way to go. Semoga semuanya berjalan dengan lancar. Amiin Allahhumma Amiin.

Stay fit; it is sunnah.
Jom, let's #GetFit WithRSC.
Like FB kami "Revert Sports Club". Kami suka nak jumpa kawan-kawan baru :)

Come, join us!

Wassalam.

Ugly Jealousy

Assalamualaikum, There exist an individual who persistently pushing her luck on my patience. She has been doing this [crap] since our love story acknowledged to her. If I am to talk about the 'unfortunate coincidences', I might just sound paranoid. Her target: my jealousy; her weapon: him. I've been watching and letting go when she called him with a nickname. I told myself, it's just another nickname. But when she wrote on his wall, calling him that [stupid] nickname again, I said: that's it she just started a war. I was rummaging my mind for the trickiest and ugliest plan for her. I swore to make both of them suffer. I am going to explode and the whole world won't have place to hide. You can call me irrational or over sensitive or cemburu buta or not sporting; be my guess. What kind of girl running over someone else's other half, and acting weirdly [and gooey-ly] 'loving'? She would have guessed even with one side of her brain that that will turn me

Assalamualaikum, It's 4th January 2010; First day of working in 2010. Few days left for this 25 years young lady :) I'm turning 26!!! Eventhough at heart I am forever 13... I am so turning 26! Oh... 25 is like standing on the thin line between young and not young. But 26... the "6" indicate that I have cross over to the other side of the world, which is not so young. The hysterics are more on the fact that I am so very much single and that a wedding is expected and that I am having my first baby when most of women my age would have their second and so on and the question will keep on coming and bugging me. Ugh! Hey hey! I am not that girl who weeps over my age. I am proud of turning 26 and the next. Just that living in this world with these big ears, I hear cruel whispers. Don't you dare blaming my ears; you should mind your words and please get a new hobby other than giving people a hard time. In this departure hall of gate 25, I watch a rerun of how I spent my a

Assalamualaikum, These children were so nice for allowing me to take their pictures. It is a satisfaction to be able to freeze these moments. Sejuk hati memandang budak-budak ni… Wassalam. Picture 1 This lovely girl was attending SCH Wajadiri 2010 at KUIN, Alor Setar, Kedah. This is my first shot of her. I did not notice it, but her dress is exactly like mine. Coincidence? I'd say it was a sweet one! Picture 2 Rini and I were testing our new DSLR at Teluk Tempoyak and this lovely girl was at the nearby playground with her mother and brother. My first shot on her as well. I love her expression. Picture 3 These two boys were sitting on a slide. Upon seeing me with my D5000, they too, cooperate and allow me to capture this moment. Picture 4 and 5 A group of boys was digging sand -- sounds like boys to me. Hehehe. They were so happy that I can't help but try my best to capture their smile and giggles. Of course, they were all okay but towards the end they tried to involve me in the
