Home Run



I ran home from work today =)
I enjoyed it and decided that I will do that more often.

The route through South Buona Vista was really nice. A gentle descend (compared to Mt Faber's which is so hard on my knees) coupled with a 'fresh' forest feel was great.

One day, I will run to work. That will be a gently ascend, i'm sure it will be fun too.

So why run home?
Somehow, I thought that it was a wonderful idea to run home from work. I exercise, and I reach home. That aside, its a great source of motivation to just run. I mean, if i start the run, I just have to finish it to get home. Its the sort of situation that may seem like desperation will see me through. If I am running somewhere near my house, I can stop any time i want and simply walk back. But the run from office to home is different. Stopping half way to walk back will take too long. Its, i suppose a challenge that I threw myself. The rules, rule was simple, no stopping except at traffic lights. Anyway, it wasn't as tough as I'd thought, as long as I ran at a leisurely pace.
