I did it. My very 1st Half Marathon run. Many people thinks it's an easy breeze for me to do a half marathon. Infact, it's the hardest thing that I will be doing and hopefully be a new achievement. They say I'm fit and will complete the race without a doubt, I do love their positive comment. But no one knows that I've been suffering from breathing problem for the past 3-4 years, I depend every morning When I wake up and night before I go to bed with my ventolin inhaler, during good times I don't need it during mid day and waking up in the middle of the night out of breath. I was born with Thalassemia trait. Thalassemia is caused by variant or missing genes that affect how the body makes hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. People with thalassemia make less hemoglobin and have fewer circulating red blood cells than normal, which results in mild or severe microcytic anemia and harder for my body to generate and produce the necessary oxygen needed for my body. With the crazy busy schedule with work and the haze condition we've been suffering, I had no time to train for this marathon. But that is not gonna stop me from getting my ass to the finish line. I'm doing this for my dearest friends and all those people who thinks that life is unfair and they have no goals and determination to go further, or those who feel lost and no where to turn to. I wanna prove to them that if u try your hardest and push hard enough, anything is possible and never give up. All it takes is a little effort, persevere and the will power to achieve your goals. I always believe that if u think and feel positive, positive results will happen. And just because something bad happens at this moment, it's not always a bad thing at the end of it. #motivation #inspiration #dontjudgeabookbyitscover #determination #willpower #lawofattraction #reachouttoyourgoals #ifyouthinkyoucanyoucan #positivevibes #standardcharteredmarathon2015 #singapore #scms2015 #thisisforyou #youcandoit #everythinghappensforareason #everthingwillbeok
