A Tribute to Endurance Sports
Lance Armstrong is the champion of cycling. He battled cancer and won. His "Live Strong" campaign is so big. Almost everyone has a yellow band around their wrists. "Live Strong" campaign triumps over cancer.
Endurance sports is massively mental, one may have lots of training, the ultimate decisive factor to make or break an individual is their mental strength.
Marathon running has an important place in my heart. It has capture my heart and fill my void. Marathon running has made my friend and I interested enough to pursue it overseas, to set up ths blog to share with the world our little dream.

The Feel
Actually, it is very important to have The Feel during all your running sessions. We always end our run with a smile. No matter how hard is the training, we still find that it is good for us and we appreciate it. I have friends who hate running or other physical sports. They are always forced by some reasons or someone into doing it. No one likes anything if they are forced to do it. Therefore, it is not the sport but them, don’t blame the sport. Do it willingly and enjoy it.
Back to The Feel, run till a point when you can hear your own breathing, hear your own footstep and feel your running posture. Check them constantly. It will improve your running - both the timing and the FEEEEL~
Gradually, you will feel the change yourself. You will get more and more comfortable in doing so. Unlike other sports, running needs to be self-motivated and you can do it on your own. It is important that you have The Feel and enjoy in doing so.
Think about it the next time when you are going for a run.

We Run together with your Name
After the cut off date, we will select the Top 5 Sponsors based on the chart and print their names on the back of our running tee-shirt. The Top Sponsor will even get his/her message printed on the front of our running tee-shirt. This is what Running Tee is all about, we will run together with your name.
How do I get my name onto the RTTC?

How do I get to the Top of the RTTC?
1) It will be based on the amount you sponsor.

Not to worry, it is not about just the money.
It is about the passion in pusuing the Dream.

The Pure Motivation
Read a book call "Breakthrough Triathlon Training". This book does not promote the ways of training or any special methods in achieving better performance. It is about Pure Motivation - within yourself, your mind and the right attitude towards the sport.
The author mentions about Roger Bannister's concept:
We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we enjoy it and cannot help ourselves. It also does us good because it helps us to do other things better. It gives a man or woman a chance to bring out the power that might otherwise remain locked away inside. The urge to struggle lies latent in everyone. The more restricted our society and work become, the more necessary it will be to find some outlet for this craving for freedom. The human spirit is indomitable.
Pure Motivation - This is exactly how we feel when we run. It reminds us of the Feel which we had during our running / physical training. It is a special kind of feeling which makes you smile after a hard training. It does not involve other elements like how hard is the training/ how fast u outrun your running buddy/ what is your running position in the compeition. We just enjoy the process~
With this right attitude, all the hardships (joint pain, muscle aches, thirst) become secondary.
Deep down, everyone has a pure motivation in participating.
Think about it the next time when you are going for a run.
