Time to wake up!!!

It have been awhile since I wrote anything here. Eversince coming back from overseas assignment, I have taken part in several events, Tribob, Sundown Marathon, Bintan Triathlon and Port Dickson (PD) Triathlon. PD was memorable. Not only I got PB, but also my whole family was there. We drove up and had a jolly good time there together. But then, something happened that pulled down my morale. I skidded from my bike on a wet road, and fractured my neck of femur (thigh bone near the ball joining to the hip). After 2hrs of emergency surgery to place 3 screws to stabilise the fracture, 3 days stay in hospital, and now, have been resting at home for 1 1/2mths.

Not being able to do anything, restricted by moving around with crutches, really bring down a man. Someone who had been active since school, really bore me to stay at home. Nevertheless, the ever supportive wife, and kids helped me to pull through till now. It even got sweeter with the addition of a new girl in the house, MY FIRST GRANDAUGHTER!!!

Unable to do the Standard Chartered Marathon 2010, which I had registered for, really makes me just want to get up and start walking without the crutches. But I think patience is the essence to speedy recovery.

I do hope that I will be able to quickly get up and start swimming, biking and running soonest. Need to get back the strength on the left leg. Had not been utilizing it for a while now, and it seems much smaller that my right. Wahhhhhh..... really need to get back my fitness once can return back to exercising.

Wish me luck!!!
