9 months on...Still smober and just did the 12km Klang run

It's been 9 months since giving up smoking....with an exception where the situation warranted 1 cig. Didn't seem as much fun as it used to be, and luckily there was no kick. Wondered why, though.

Just finish my first official run today, the New Balance 12km Klang run. Manage a personal best of 1hr 3min and 58seconds, significantly faster than my trial run the previous Sunday of 1:08:30. May be something to do with racing with people. I found it extremely enjoyable and could push myself quite a bit.

I'm on to the 2nd race next week, the Mizuno Wave run, 10km. Heard that it is quite hilly and may be quite tough. Hopefully, I'll be able to do it within 55 min, but I should be happy if it's below 58 min, given the expected terrain.
