Last LSD prior to Penang Marathon
There's no such thing as bad weather, just weak minds.
Yes, it rains in the morning, when i reached the run site at 7 am. It was drizzling halfway zone between run and no run. It was tempting to just quit and go back home for another round of sleep. I do need the sleep after last night yesterday!
All the runners are waiting in nearby shelters. Mind is in 2 places as i have an appointment later in the morning and i will be late if i run.
Decide to wait in the car for the rain to subside. It didn't after 50 mins later and the rain just get heavier! I drove off to run errands and finish my appointment earlier. I was disappointed not to have force myself to run given it is just rain! What is little rain going to hurt?
A few hours later i am back at the run site agan. The weather was excellent, abit cooler in fact. I finished my 16km run in 1:50hr. Timing isn't important. The most crucial is that i completed the run. Can feel the body isn't in great shape and was feeling chuan most of the time. I need to learn how to run slow and calm myself down over the next dew days before Penang Marathon.
If you want to run, nobody will stop you. Don't find excuses. They aren't many legitimate one, especially because of weather!
