The First Step

As they say, a journey of  thousand miles starts with the first step. This blog is dedicated to my own personal journey of being a causal runner to completing an ultra marathon within 2 years. I know it is a long time away, but there is a famous saying which goes, "Look after the days and the years will look after itself". So this is just a daily log of how I am progressing and hopefully I will get there.

Why run 100km or more? I don't know. Perhaps it is the sheer audacity of the goal, or maybe I just want to achieve something beyond the commercialisation of running such as a marathon. Being a diabetic, I am conscious that exercise is crucial to my longevity, and am hoping to inspire others in the same predicament as me through my actions.

I intend to post daily on my progress based on the following:
1. Summary of how I feel and think
2. The exercise I performed.
3. My diet
4. Weight and body fat

That's it! Do leave comments and words of encouragement. It sort of inspires me.
