Today I affirmed that there are plenty of fishes in the river, and it's Sungei Serangoon rather than Sungei Punggol as I thought it was previously. Man.. they just keep splashing up on the water surface to feed or something. I told tham about it. maybe we'll go fishing there soon.

But of coz it was also where I encountered the python incident. So I make some good out of my not-very-constructive sober time at home and watched a few snake related documentaries on NatGeo and Animal Planet. No prob. I'll catch one home next time.

Today I made a mental note to remember the distance of the track's length. 2.2km. to simulate the marathon's 42km i'd simply have to run up and down the place 19 times.

Anyway, this year's will be a much more serious event than my past 2 marathons. I even told Zijing that I wanna run alone this time. No more exams to get in the way, no work commitments for now at least, so it's time to test my limits while there is still something testable. I mean if i'm 80 years old and i say i wanna test my limits, i'd prolly just walk around the park twice and try to give myself a pat on the back.
