Weekend at the cottage. I have never been so tired and yet so relaxing at the same time. Julian and his wife, Jen, they are a part of my Fellowhip and owned a cottage in Peterborough. Last year, we helped him and his wife, Jen, built a shed. This weekend, we did a lot more. They were building a porch. It was a big project. The concrete and the foundation was already done by the contractor. It is...
Accept everything about yourself–I mean everything, You are you and that is the beginning and the end–no apologies, no regrets. – Clark Moustakas I remember back in Highschool, I would be nice to anyone. Often I would wonder why someone ain’t my friend. I can’t say it drove me crazy but it did nag me once in a while. As such, I didn’t have a good experience. I...
Culture, family, friends, expectation… Man is a child of his environment – Shinichi Suzuki In Po Bronson’s book, What Should I do with my life, there is a Cuban lady that became a very successful banker. She realized her destiny was to help the needy and became a social worker. In Cuban culture, a social worker is very low class. Her family disowned her. She would go to party...
What should I do with my life…. The brain has been thinking a lot in the past few days. Before I get to that, I just want to share about my weekend: – Sat, met up with Will to go riding. Bumped into Darren. I missed the Fork of the Credit, the wind, the hills. The most enjoyable moment was riding up Hockley (without getting off the saddle), huffing and puffing, looking back and...
Rest week is over…starting the aerobic engine Finally. That’s all I have to say. Going out and Church stuff have occupy me in the past two weeks. So there was very little time to train. With decrease in training, diet wet out the door. It ain’t bad. I was living like a normal person. However, I have been feeling more cranky than ever. Maybe this is my time of the month. I had it...
Toronto Waterfront Triathlon Pics and finish Zip me up please. Now I know how a girl feels on a prom night 🙂 Charge!!! Swim coach hollaring and me respond with a thumbs up Notice I am running on the grass/dirt. If you are running your bike shoes to the transition, don’t run too hard on the pavement. My heels ache these past few days from pounding the pavement with my bike shoes. Who’s...
Studying God’s Words… Beside leading the young career Fellowship (Emmanuel), I also attend a small group that studied the Bible once a month. Yesterday, we were studying Romans Chapter 2. I am glad I went b/c I haven’t had a good Bible Study in a long long time. I had a highschool reunion last night as well. The decision wasn’t too hard to make. It would be great to...
No risk = no anthem I took the title from Simon Whitfield’s blog. If you don’t know who he is, he won Gold in 2000 Olympic games. The title is taken from this post. He was in a race where he felt flat on the run and ended up in 12th place. It reminded me of my race on Sunday. The bike course consisted 5 loops. In the first loop, a male with 28 (his age) on his calve just passed me...
Quick bloggie. Yesterday I did the Toronto Waterfront Triathlon (750/30/7.5). I did this last year and thought how I could compare after a year. That was also my first tri. That’s how I got sucked into this tri craziness. I thought my time (1:57) was much better but I only beat my previous time by SIX seconds (WOW in the most sarcastic way). My bike pace was faster (33 kph) . Run pace stays...
