“Looking at the ground in front of you is a requirement for this one.” I declared in my first review of this course. My second time there, around kilometre number two, I landed hard on the right side of my foot, when I was expecting to land on the cushioned sole of the shoe, as usual. It was an instant sprain but we remained calm, as the marshal shouted after me are you pokay and I gave a so-so with my hadn as I hobbled away from them. I walked it off, then realised I could jog and run at pace so I finished the race. My ankle is recovering nicely and I have been playing volleyball and being active.

Just wanted to record the irony and the way the future shows itself in the past. So next time, less cheerful confident running and more prudent, meek running, which is usually what I do, I was just feeling good on the day I guess.
