Supergirl's (Cheng Yu) FMV @ The inaugural Malaysia Women Marathon 2013

Without thinking much, I've registered a full marathon for MWM, inspired by Jason Tan (boyfriend's running mate). I was just started running 10km last year, 21km this year and then followed by 42km. Without LSD training, and i did a costume run for my vfm.
Me and my boyfriend, Jason Kow
at one of the water station, still close by my side

My knee started to pain after 2-3km run, and i have another 40km to go, first thought in my mind was i cannot finish it but my boyfriend telling me, pain is just for temporary, keep running don't regret it. And so i continued. I'm very lucky to have very good supportive boyfriend back up me, nothing is impossible when i have faith and he's there to give me support and courage. I tell myself, even if i cannot finish this fm, I'll be happy too because at least I'm brave enough to take the challenge, and there are so many friendly & helpful runners cheering me up. Lastly, what i want to tell is: If you think you can, you can! Enjoy the pain, get the pride, no regret and run with style!!
