Coming from the dead, alive!!

That was the feeling I had as I completed my first session in the hooha! Asia Running Bootcamp, on January 8,2011, recently.This is my first experience of any running bootcamp from that matter. I know I was beyond crazy to even think about it. But I dare to dream to visualize myself as a visible winner for my first half marathon in April. So, I dared myself to take up this challenging course with hope to live up my 2011 theme of running on the edge.

Frankly speaking, the easy run was kinda breezy for me but it was the drilling that was a death sentence. We had a trainer who was an ex national runner of the (SEA) Games gold medal winner and now runs for PDRM, who introduced a crazy hard core police drilling fitness regime. It was non stop vigirous movemement in 30 torture minutes.

A typical strength training would have at least 1 minute pause for every sets. But this was absolutely sadistically crazy! For the first time in my life, I felt my chest was dislocated from my body, gasping for air. I saw black and white stars as if my world was falling apart and worse of all I felt like I was about to die puking, but didnt. I almost gave up and suddenly I heard voices saying that I shoul look at the luscious greens. The Orange Man gave me a bottle of mineral water and congratulated me as I have pushed myself to the limit and I will never forget this moment. Ever..

Suddenly..I felt like a different person. I felt I was a living dead come alive . I am alert, alive and kicking. And it felt gooood!!!!

Since the next week session venue is still a secret, I'm looking forward to start my next training
