It was indeed a physically, mentally challenging 100KM 3 day 2 night walk around the parks of Singapore. One that really pushes one limit to the maximum. I too was pushed to the maximum and sustains aches and muscle stress through the 3 day of walk.
Like a common saying, no pain, no gain. It is indeed no pain no gain. However, when I see those who have a condition, a medical condition i.e Diabetics; I reflected and relooked. That is more challenging than us. They have to not only overcome the pain and agony of the physically pain, they too have to managed their blood sugar level. My buddy, Bruce, whom seemingly like one fit person, went to hospital with chest pain. A reflection of how fortunate I am. A walk of just taking another step ahead despite all the ache and pain. A journey that starts and continues with every small step ahead. What more can 100KM teaches and challenges not only those who can but challenges those who think they cannot. It is too then not about completing but with the heart and decision to complete the race and fulfil all the objective and purpose that the 100KM walk has acheived. To raise awareness and also the build faith and confidence in all who walk through.
Everything that has a beginning has a ending and everything ending there is a beginning. This 100 KM is the beginning of a new journey for me. To walk the additional mile, to really decide to walk the race that I have chosen to walk through. To be able to move where I was and am called to now. A call is a calling, and it will be a calling when it is answered. Just like a King's call. It will not be a King's call if none of his army or knights respond to that call....the horn call....the majesty call. What so the call of the King of Kings of higher grace and majestic.
Walk on even the road is tough. For what is never done will ever be done once.
