Reality Check

As shocking and as jarring as it was, I had to get up early this morning since the oh-one-so-glorious-day-off was over. I’m sure you can relate to that. Time sure flies when you’re having fun!

Before we get into the details, a huge shout out to The Boy who came in 10th in the Jungle Marathon over the weekend. That’s right…the race billed as the “toughest race” by CNN covering 254km in Brazil. Now tell me you don’t love this?!?!?!

And over in this part of the world, I was nursing sore abs while covering 9km around Sungei Besi yesterday morning after the earlier downpour – don’t ya just love running after a rain/shower?
