Don't try to be a hero

Good news: I've finally resurrected a hobby, or interest..or whatever you want to call it. I can't believe that I didn't start this earlier..considering I enjoyed it so much last time. I guess the advent of the driving license sidelined this hobby for a while :) Anyway so there I was thinking what in the world to do about my expanding waistline because I don't want to go to JPMC gym its always full. And Fitness Zone to me is just overpriced and full of posers. So what to do leh?

*looks downstairs and discovers a vaguely bicycle shaped dust mound* oh yeah lets give that a try hehe..brought it to the shop and spent an ungodly amount of money fixing it up (although it was cheaper than buying a new bike) and was 'coerced' into joining a bicycle expedition. Now lets get this clear, I hadn't been on a bike for 4 years, well out of shape due to the project of tasting every half decent restaurant in this country and I signed up for a 25km expedition!!!

I wonder what made me do that. Now I'm got sore legs, tomorrow the hamstrings will probably follow and what-not. Oh and a certificate. But you know what? I really enjoyed it. Chasing the pack, trying to keep up with the veterans (surprisingly I wasn't eating THAT much dust), all about the mental focus on a point to chase. It's all good. I might pursue this hobby along and see how far I can take it. Hopefully can get fast enough to join one of the inter-country expeditions although thats many moons away...
