Day 99: Cardio (9.06km in 36min)

Today was a good run as I finally hit sub 4 minute pace per km finally.

My last of such effort was Day 71 back in May with 3:50 minute per km timing.

I average 3:58 minute per km today. The thing is I felt running my mileage today akin to 800m instead! Hahaha.

My posture was erect, I was very aggressive, my running style more elongated yet controlled, as if I’m totally a different runner.

The whole running journey, I felt inspired. Why? … Well just take a look at the video below.

The song “The Climb” just kept replaying in my head the whole time. I felt connected and truly can relate to the lyrics at hand, plus the tune sound catchy.

Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what?s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

And this verse kept on pushing me.

I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause
There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,

Yeah i know it’s such a kiddie song by Miley Cyrus, but hey whatever works for ya, keep on doing it right.

Well I’ve this new vibe to me now, where the work front is going well, mentally I’m much stronger, and I feel nothing is impossible these days.

I do have my goals still in mind, I don’t want to share it yet here, as I’m quite the superstitious lot.

I’ll reveal it when I’ve finally achieved it.

I know I would in time, as so far my plan is working out well.

It’s a four year plan for which I’ve executed the first year with much hiccups, and struggle, but still keeping it up.

Well anyway tomorrow is Friday, and some might find refer to it as TGIF, but to me it’s like any other day.

Just a typical day to seize and make the best of it … Carpe Diem as Horace says it best.
