10th Day Of Puasa

10th day of puasa and Raimie got through it just fine.Sure, there were whines and a bit of tantrums and flopping around involved because he was too thirsty or hungry but that boy managed to go through it after all. Good job Raimie. Mommy and Daddy are proud of you! Just 20 more days to go.

Sahur today was leftover pizza that we had for buka puasa yesterday and for buka puasa today, the usual because Raimie said so (I indulged him as a treat for fasting) and it's nasi lemak... again!

School wise - Raimie told us that he needed to stay back each Monday and Thursday for choral speaking. With co-curriculum activities on Wednesday, seems like he won't have time to attend religious school anymore soon! Oh dear. :(

Anyways, remember the Pacemakers Anniversary Run I did yesterday? You don't think I'd finish yakking about it, do you? Wanna see some particularly ugly mug of yours truly trying to do a semblance of a fast run that Sunday? Don't "kutuk" too much, OK? heh heh

I tell you, that steep stairs notwithstanding, last Sunday's run was a lovely run to be in and a part of. Serious runners abound and yet, they came with a wanna have fun attitude.

Thank you so much to Victor, Gila Bola Karim, Tey, Andrew and Yum Kin Kok for the awesome and gritty (heh) photos. Love them! Plenty more of those in FB... ^^

There were as many photographers as there were runners at the run on Sunday and FB's busy with updates on us tagging each other. I get to play photographer too this time because of the team event. Me, staying after the race is a rare thing because the two boys would usually want to head back almost immediately after I finished my run.

No more races to join in August but here's what's in store for September and what I somehow registered and will get myself into (with bunny ears, if I might add). 
Sep 9th - Adidas King of the Road (16.8K)
Sep 16th - Taiping International Marathon (21K)
Sep 30th - Salomon X-Trail (10K)
I went crazy signing up for races. @.@
p.s. anyone got any idea what's the nicest hotel there is in Taiping?
