Our 3rd Wedding Anniversary plus Happy Mid Autumn Festival

Yay! Hong Kong people is all celebrating to us! Its public holiday today for the Big Moon and our 3rd Marriage! I'm so happy with my Charles for the all years we have had together:) He is my love, my life my everything!

 We kick start our celebration in a different way, we don't have a romantic restaurant to celebrate and it is our first time we celebrate in Hong Kong. How lucky we are. We ran to the dragon back trail to enjoy our sip of camel bag water and banana (HOT) for around an hours and down to the Shek O road to our favorite beach!

 A short rest overlooking the other side of the island south. Beautiful weather:) Just loving the rocky trail so much. Charlie is super strong today, he take the lead...I'm happy to follow:)

Arrived our favourite beach - Shek O with super clear water. We both jump in to take a short breakin the wave......lovely! 

Then, here we come to our HOME SWEET HOME to spent the lazy afternoon, just lying on Sofa, watching TV, talks....while i made my first time Cup Cake for celebration and preparing our home dinner. Happy is just simplest is that....

Love you forever, Charles! My sweetheart always........

Running date with hubby

Running Activity 7.21 km | RunKeeper

My date with hubby, HOT and Rigorous!!! means a sweaty run :)

Well, my long run tonight. Trying to wash away my excess which gain from the Bangkok and the dessert lunch with Janice at W52......Too much tempting of good food :) We start at a very easy, talkative pace towards the end of Siu Sai Wan and return. Charlie stop around 48mins and i have to continues...The pain from the track session yesterday haven't gone and i can feel my pain onmy left feet which we have bend in every corner aggressively at the 400m track. My feet at the hurtbox now :( Any way can wash the sore of my tired leg?? Massage? more food? stretching?

During the run at the ChaiWan Pier, we saw 2 Dragon Boat training. People is motivated with their slogan on and the drummer is spining their pace hard. I told Charles, we are lucky! As we stay closed to this place, people coming to training here may live far away. We thought about Cat (Now in UK, one of our member before)

Good night, i think i need a good sleep!

My 32 Birthday!

Thanks hubby for the surprises. I'm so happy that i married you, my lovely wonderfull hubby!!!
So great to take some leave for Bangkok to get rid of the cold in HK. Lovely sunshine there with a bit dry season....Food, slow down, adventure in the market and of course rest :)

Running with Hubby tonight

Running with Hubby tonight, the pacing is totally wrong. The hill lead by Charles wasn't killing me, but Charles was no fuel when we nearly submmit.....Sorry!
Have increase my pace to 5 mins/km at the last 2 km run.....Charles managed to follow in a hard pace....Nice run tonight follow with stretch by the sea.

When we run down to the hill, i can feel that Ah Tim inside a Taxi is yelling to us "Run Faster" Not sure is him or not! Anyway, its good you running around the city with people cheering you up!

HK Training Camp Day 2

HK Training Camp Day 2: 30km ride with 1.5 hours long run. Sweet:)

Intended to do 60km, but my "down there" is really calling me OFF! Cannot seat comfortably today no matter how much cream i put in like a cream cake....girls will understand when you are in PMS, and you need to ride and all messed up "down there" how would it feel.

See my doctor this afternoon, as my PMS will hit directly to my Kenting 70.3 race. Have to make it come earlier...but it hit the ITU in HK, not sure how it will go. And i have to re-calculating once again my next PMS come....

See Charles doctor too, Doctor said he is just fine with normal blood pressure. It just too tired from work and overuse of computer??@*#*&^*@#* He started to feel dizzy after work and he gets really powerless especially on long bike ride...I'm really worried about him more than myself. I could not loss him. I decided to see another doctor for him tomorrow. Or i would ask him to do a whole body check....it keeps worrying me.....

Happy to have HOME MADE LUNCH and DINNER today...I'm happy to see Charles is HAPPY:) i have made Greek salad again with pita and nan bread for lunch. And a Home made soy sauce chicken wings and mixed vegetable Won-ton and fish ball soup. So comfortable to be at home with him. I love you ♥ baby!

2nd Year Anniversary

Our Second Year Marriage Anniversary....reminding me what we did in Bali back to two years ago! I love you, Charles................

2010 Aquathon Series - Race 4, Hong Kong Plover Cove

Nice weather, a bit cool with bit shine...wake up at 4:45 this morning and drove to far away Plover Cove. I haven't been racing there for a long time, the returing is great!

Race consist of 5km Run + 1.5km swim + 5km run:
I was a bit late when i arrived there and was aware i even fon't know where is the transition area and the start. I tried to be clam and get everythings i need for the swim and rush to the T1 to settle my stuff.

Head to the start line which was away from the T1 300meter and time is relaly close to start. I manage to find Susana and Chris and we still got time to jog a bit.

Race start at 6:45A.M., i was positioned at the upper side, manage to run a bit faster pace which i aim to do so to test myself if i'm able to run abit faster for the first leg. (Usually ppls will tried to runa bit relax on teh first leg and save energy for the rest) I intented to run faster to gain more time as i know i won't swim fast. The first run is hard, i tried to follow few groups to run, but eventually fail. I was running alone and up to around the last 500m, i manage to follow a woman towards T1. Tuck in my swim cap and goggle and slowly walk down to the water, heartate is uncontrolable. Manage to swim my stroke until i reached first 200m, i feel my oxygen intake is not normal when i do my swim training. I tried to inhale more, but i realised my upper trachea is contracted abit and lead to reduce the air intake. I tried to told myself to clam down and exhale slowly under the water until all air is out so that i can inhale more. Finished my first lap and towards the second lap, i feel much comfortable and i know its time to speed up abit. Second lap is prefect, i manage to swim with my rhythm with hard kick and i always remembering Kenneth told me to hold my fingers together to push the water and ofcourse the turn. Thanks Kenneth, i always remember you during the swim. The most awakening time:)

Shake off all my caps and goggle, tuck in my shoes and race belt, grap my cap and oakley with 1 gel on hand. I feel a bit dizzy when running the first uphill...Saw many cheer person and i feel that i must run great. Hold my gel on hand (learnt from Belinda, thanks!) and slowly getting my pace. After the last turn towards the end, i started to built up a little and get a really strong finish. Just love the energy i can give out....
My personal split time:
5km run> 0:20:04
T1> 0:02:25
1.5 Swim> 0:38:21
T2> 0:02:45
5km run> 0:21:46
Total: 1: 25:19

Follow with Janice's invited BBQ at NT with heavy rain and thuderstorm. It gives me a feel when i was going a Brownie and Girlguides (for 10 years more) on how to make a fire with charcoat! Love her family with the support and the preparation of all the great food. Her dog Chocco is lovely. and ofcourse the Sonic Clan (We have our head coach back from Niseko camp, Ah Lok, Janice and family, Eric, Fanny and Ah Chung, Brian, Ah On, Susana, Evan, Mama Rita, Pearl, Stephanie & Ivan, Billy and family, Berard and her little girls, Andy, Michal and friendis) always great to share fun, jokes and teasing the guys and our big family photo time :)

Great to be home with Charles just lazy lying on sofa and watching the big rain outside. Good fmaily dinner with Charles' mom great preparation to end the day! Love our life :)

My bloods, sweats and tears......

I'm giving out my bloods, sweats and tears all over in my training!!!!!Counting down 12 days to kill myself in Phuket! Feeling really bad tonight, really want to give up in the 3rd set....I hate cycling, it made me feeling really painful on my bike which i cannot enjoy! I cannot archive the target HR, legs sore, muscle tired, having really bad mood...........Becoz of the promise of myself and to my coach and my husband, my life is training almost everyday, no shopping, no gathering, sleep and eat healthy. When i off to work, i have to back home ASAP either pack my training gear or get on my trainer........! I have no choice, becoz i would not quit. To quit is easy, i want people to remember me my glory!
