Today, I participated in the 4km run in City to Surf, my first major running event in Perth. The distance is comfortanble for me and is perfect for both speed and endurance. I felt the adrenaline rush kick in as I surged ahead. There were thousands and thousands of other runners and walkers and it was frustrating to be slowed down by the volume of people moving at different speeds. I could have sworn I ran an additional 200m, weaving in and out of the crowd.

Despite that, I was quite happy to finish with a time of below 21 minutes. I don't usually time myself when I run, but today I decided to push myself just for the fun of it.

I feel satisfied and revitalized, off to bed now. Over and out.
