My first FootSoul or Futsal

Running had always been my passion ever since i was so drawn and addicted to it, haha, Since i was down with injuries, it has been quite hard for me to run long distance again, when you hurt pretty badly like me it is hard...

Tetiba,my colleague at work insisted that i joined the futsal team, aiyo me playing football ka? well i did play for my school last time, yup back when i was in primary school....yikes...panic button about to be switch on...i am really out of shape to be playing a football game now, my body had not been contoured enough to carry that level of skills, ...they insisted that i 'll be in the team, even with the present condition, i am, isk...tempang...they said i just need to be the Goli, stay put and let the team do the defense,....mm sounds like a very comforting situation kan....well knowing me, always redah ajer....so be it my first futsal on last Wednesday at Sportsplanet Ampang..

Obviation is not apparent at the moment, nak cari kasut ler, what are the rules are? Are they same as the FIFA rules on the field ..will the opponents going to thrash me like a tin can..cam cam...rasenyer the anxiety is like the first time , i enter a running competition, what would happen if i did not finish the run, which I'm proud to say that i never had any DNF even though seriously injured...get back to the futsal thing again...

I did arrived at he futsal field in time, while thinking , what had i put myself into now, Are serious in playing this game after an abstinence for over 15 years, well here i am no turning back, wearing my joging shoes instead of futsal shoe, hahaha,,,malu pun ade...well u are surrounded by people whom well equipped from top to toe,,,hahah i'm really in the wrong field ler ni...haha ape rusa masuk kampung katanyer....

The whistle blew off , let the show begin, i was so clueless about the rules, i was very lucky to have a very supportive team mates whom guide me all the way through out the game, better not gone too far with the adrenaline , loves your knee ( capital investment tu) hehehe...so tahan pakai badan and tangan ajer...goli tempang katanyer,,,hahaha i did not let my team down well there are couple of good saves..kudos to me...hahah could this be?????

hahah...my team did great , i awed by the level of commitment they shown...and level of skills ...mm i was so out this league ler ....well play for fun....that what i wanted when i started competing against myself....

So let the soul seep through the foot and flows back to veins....

Recovery Training

The doc said i could run  again but slowly ler ..and my knee is getting stronger, it had moved back to the original position, Katanyer ler, I was fortunate to be had done it ACL recondition, now my knee much more stabilize whenever i run or walk,  My muscle on my left leg is still weak, thus far i can only go up to 9 km, it going take a quite sometime before this leg could be up again running the first  marathon...

It is always been my life , go for it, take the risk and be joyful in the process....,,,,

Keep the spirit high..RUN for A CAUSE...

There had been few runners that i knew whom running for a cause such as follows:-

Diket for MAKNA
Irwan Annuar for Majlis AIDS Malaysia
Kak Kash for Autisme NASM

Hopefully there will be more runners out there to follow their generous do of sacrificing part of their energy to spread a message of hope, some may not aware that one of us may had endured the painful memories in the past of losing someone or may just be suffering now on any misfortunes of life......i may not be the best person in real life..broken down but my hope is still burning inside of me..watching them my fellow running buddies...

Please reach for them, donate generously as u can...or moral support to continue on their journey...

I pray that their faith will conquers their fears

This sudden feeling..of disabled..

Macam macam feeling..this is what i'm feeling right now...reading a few bloggers wrote about their incredible tribulation preparation for their upcoming races..wow..how i missed that day so much..out of the blue..this feeling of disability arises...may be this is what they are feeling..whenever u being left out or feeling incomplete..not being able to do what the others do...it is sad kind of feeling..feeling ever so grateful that i can still walk to the mamak stall ..will be able to run soon...if Godwill..i'll do...

People will stare at the way you walk...ahh so funny ler that guy..felt so left out..kekadang..malu pun ade..haha. they would not know i'm a runner, yup caused i'm a bit gumuk sudah, haha, i was lucky to have a good support group here..thus being this state i would not be left out....

I guess, i had to forgo my Singapore dream, i'm just not fit, it will take me months to be up running, i take this as sign for me...to be more careful and cautious of my body.....

Please take good care of your knee or else the retribution will be fatal to your running passion..

Mataharibawah Singa Pura Pura Dua Puluh Sepuluh Mahu lari Ka?

well it has been five month since my last run, from then on it has been a struggle to cross the 5 km mark, limping at every step you push, then come the surgery, the fortunate me, well i'm loving the effect of the surgery though i can't run yet but i'm feeling optimistic that i could without any pain, huhu, being positive right, hopelessly positive dude...i had lost count on how many runs i had missed or not known, wow i can really got disconnected from the running world, oisk...i guess the holic of runnings is leaking away...sudah tidak jadi pelari tegar lagi ler....hehehe

I had this crazy idea about mataharibawah run down south...mmm well..i could not run as fast or run at all, well i may be left at the road side kot, i can't really tell what will happen by then, mmm may be i should just run or walk all the way...i had bought the bib, is it...ok ke? mesti i akan dikutuk oleh mamat -mamat pelari tegar ni...look at that guy nak masuk jugak, kalau jalan baik duduk kat  rumah jer...huahuahuhau....mmm spare the embarrassment or redah jer lah...

Tomorrow will be another appointment with my Orthopedic, my leg is still weak, the pain seem to gradually decrease, kerna kedegilan otak ni, i did 4 loops around Lake Titiwangsa last Saturday, i did felt pain around the muscle at the upper and lower thigh, limping the whole day, it did not stop me from going to watch Iron Man 2, haha, the next day i took a day off and found that the pain is almost non existent, mmm could this be...

The surgery is quite costly RM 12k in total, ouch investment tu..luckily i took it...mmm nak jalan ke tidak ni..mmm hopefully i could finish in time so that i could get the Finisher's T, lantak ler...6 hours pun ok jugak..ceh..confident,,,entah entah 8 hours...hahhaha ...could this leg last that long....mmmmm....

My Runner's Oblivion

It has been quite  a while since my last post was only made for my Bib sale, no taker so far, i guess i'm suck at marketing...kot, product x dak bagus, anyway..it has been almost 5 month i had been hibernating myself from running, ever since the painful yet to be fruitful knee surgery, i was left with very sedentary lifestyle, living it loud ..yeeeho...yup till realities kicks in...big bump on the belly ...hahah dah gumuk ler....well i did lost a lot of muscle mass from my thigh...though....yikes...fit the pants again...

my life had become somewhat like a cricket creaking in the night while gazing the stars....dreaming of the day when will i be free again and regain back the utter feeling of champion...well that is life, never what u wanted it is always what is given...appreciate the moment as it pass by,

My knee is slowly coping with fast pace of life, catching up with the normal routine of life, well it has not been that fantastic as before , at least its a start, some says i should just give up running and just live life as it is, don't  put yourself in the situation u was, mmm felt kind of hard to accept, when u put a lot of effort towards it ,would'nt u want to see the final result is? right..half way done is not going to yield any....feeling kind of low right now...shall i give up this dream...?

 Lately , i went to Bandung with my friends, we had so much fun, looking at the life and living there, makes u realize the unfortunate and selfishly i am thinking that i had nothing compared to the others, nothing beat the dose of reality to bring back the senses into your life. Life will be fair to those whom works for it, kudos to them,

Maybe some of u guys may had thought , what happen ler to this guy kan, well i'm clueless too, it has always been my dream to be free and fly away to every part of the world, hopefully i would have the chance...hahah deep inside lies the same person u knew all along....laarr

as for running, i wish i could run as fast as the wind and strong as a horse, when will it be? Only time will tell, they said runner's is no quiter, well... it really hit me hard in the face now...be strong Shaqi, held your head high and never give up that is my mantra now, hoping that God will be on myside.....till then........;
