i dont think thats right .... in marathon there are no failures regardless of ur time ..... everyone is a winner if u just finish it
finishing a marathon is a great achievement, irregardless of time. there are times u do well and there are times you do not do so well. u can neverx2 PR in every race u run. FAILURE is not the word to descirbe it. As azwar said, everyone's a WINNER once u cross the finishing line.
why Jason look so spastic one ah? Anyway, Jason should be a failure since he trained like a madman (run up hill, run 6 hours around klcc park, ultramarathon, 30km every other week), he should be doing sub 4hrs 15 mins. His current timing is nothing to shout about.
I think having the courage to be at the starting point in any marathon run is already a success in itself. Crossing the finishing line is definitely an achievement regardless of the timing. Every marathoner is always challenging against his / her own limitations and not against anybody unless he / she is an elite marathoner.
I don't think any unkind words are needed in this blog. Should anyone feel the need for such words, kindly take them elsewhere.
Each individual has his or her own mode of training. We do not impose our expectations on others and consider them failures... after all we should all be running because we enjoy the sport and the friendship which comes with it.
As Azwar and P2 have aptly put it, getting to the starting point of a marathon and completing it is by itself an achievement. I say well done to everyone who ran in the KLIM, may it be in the 7k or 42k. Don't be too concerned with your timing and continue to enjoy the sport!
the only failure is the failure to participate
lets keep the blog positive and light-hearted which is why it is so popular. we do not want negativity and unkind words to ruin it. there are no losers, only runners.
there are no failure in Marathon.
congrates to everyone that complete the distance.:)
