Late Nights and Road Runs

I'm up waiting for a phone call, and I shall use this time to chart my Road Run progress.

I conclude that I am very unfit and very fat; I have not attended Track trainings in ages, due to the fact that we end at 5.15pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays and by that time I would be half dead. I have not been training on my own either. So, is the Road Run a lost cause? I think not.

Here's why:
3.2km - 15minutes
3.6km - 18minutes
4.2km - 18minutes

It is perfect safe to conclude that I am fully fit are raring to go. My recent trial run timings have remained constant despite the increase in distance. I will attempt to do my 5km run in 18minutes as well. (Yeah right.)

I have bought my Snickers bars for that day. They will provide me with alot of starch to burn so I will run faster. And who knows? I might get an endorphin high as well!

Now, on to more serious matters. I have no idea why and how on earth the Delta idiots failed to include me in the teams for running. They just omitted their top three IP male runners! But then again, I'm not running for Delta; I'm running for my own glory. I've given up on representating an unworthy cause already, when all that matters is the result and the points obtained. I even commented that I'd take Rongbin's place in the Alpha team and ensure that the top 5 were from Alpha. (I'd keep the trophy of course, he'd get the team medal.)

Sometimes we need to see pasts those masks people hide behind, and it's often more than just a singular layer. If you think TJ has a 'family-like' atmosphere, think again. The product matters more than the process. It's all about image and reputation there. Marcus rightly commented that the attitudes of the staff transcend down to become attitudes students in positions pick up.

So this Saturday, I may be in a Delta shirt, but the glory I seek is for my own.

(Yes I have always been a rebel against the system.)
