The race was my test

The race was my test!!!  I passed the test with flying colors.
You may wonder what type of test I am talking about.

All images taken with Olympus OMD-ME5 and kit lens 12-50mm f/3.5-6.3.



The Run

In May 1999, I broke my achilles tendon and I stop running my yearly PJ Half Marathon. A few years, I did joined the Malay Mail Walk to test my healing tendon without any training. My tendon healed beside I have a Helper. I thanked Him for walking with me.

At the age of 49 years old, I twisted my back muscles which in turn affected by right leg nerve. Now I am really kaput! I have difficulty in walking as I need a rest after a few steps. I went to see a few doctors and they gave me pain killers and nerve pills. But nothing works!! The pain is still there!!!

Once I was a runner and now I have difficulty in walking.


The Walk

 In August 2011, we bought a camera and my passion for photography grows like grass after the rain as I want to be the best in whatever I do.

Committed Runner

I am so committed to be the best that I feel that nothing can stop me. I will grab every opportunity to shoot whichever come my way. Or else I will create the opportunty for the benefit of my photography growth.



Blackout!

As I have no training for this race but I still want to run with my OMD-ME5 for my personal test which resulted being blackout after the race. My time for the race was 39-40 minutes as I also need to capture images along the way.

The Meal

The meal was great and Bayu Timor deserved 4 stars for taste and quality.



Caught in Action

I thought nobody knows that I captured their images as I am using OMD-EM5's LED but my friend who owned an Olympus knows better.

Note: Please do a proper training before you go for a race and do a proper warm-up before you start to run. Actually I am not fully running but enjoying the run with wonderful people.
