Spring, a season of love, is also a season of 'nuts'.
A season of forcefulness that kind of pushes you to start looking for something divine, something that makes your heart skip a beat, something that scares you a lot, yet the only thing that helps you grow.
I am this kind of person. One that is always looking for adventures which can help me become a better self, physically, psychologically, mentally and spiritually. The adventures that can help me feel complete. So this year, like last year, I take on a lot of challenges.
The first one being Standard Chartered Half Marathon. I guess what doesn't kill me, really makes me stronger. It is because the longest distance I had ever finished in one go was 14km. In view of this, I trained very hard and within two months, my accumulated running mileage was 200+km. And now, I am right here, having fulfilled my dream of completing my first half marathon with flying colors - net time: 2:02:34hrs.
I am proud of myself.
My friends and family are my fuel.

2. Run if you can, walk if you have to, crawl if you must. Just, never give up.
3. Our greatest glory lies not in never falling, but rising every time we fall.
4. Impossible is just an option, not a destination.
5. I was born to be awesome, not perfect.

Kind of self-absorbed right?
Well, let me be. :)
