Welcome, Spring.
It's going to be cooler and it would have been a very impressive moment when you dives into a swimming pool, the chill will make you get faster and faster in the water because it is solely a affliction to stay still. I'm very appreciated to spot that the swimming centre will turn to warm water in the next week.
Running trainning is underway.
P.S Well done liverpool, and sorry Owen.

Set to marathon(?)
The Hong Kong Marathon will take place on 28th Feb 2010, i will take part in the 10km challenge with my friends. I guess i will hand in application tomorrow and fork out for a new pair of running-shoes. The problem i really concern is how much time i would set aside for training, it's really awkward for me. In one hand, i am a running novice so i ought to spare more time to run, but in other hand if i really put extra time on training, i have to cut short and even call off some of my daily affairs, that i am indeed reluctant. Okay, it's time to reshuffle my time table.
Murakami Haruki had said in his best-seller "What i talk about when i talk about running" that he ran 10km everyday for marathon practice. As a famous writer like him, it should be a pile of work waiting for him but he can surprisingly set such time aside for running. Confessedly it really puts me to shame - for both physically and mentally, i may need more training.
P.S i have heard that Mizuno Wave Aero is good for distance-run training, i should have one.

Oh! bama
I guess it would be the most astonished news this week - maybe this year. US President Obama won this year's Noble peace prize. For me, its impact far outshone Prof. Ko who won the Physics prize in spite of i was a graduate from EE department of CUHK.
The reason of giving the prize was that the Noble prize Commission hoped the prize can encourage Obama to achieve concrete progress on his multilateral diplomacy. Many people doubted that if it's premature to give the prize since Obama had yet to make any tangible result by the policies he handed down. Obama also said he was not deserved the prize, but he would receive it modestly and seen the prize as a incentive to push him teaming up with other countries to strive for a better future of the world (Something like that). Indeed i like Obama, he always impresses me by his principle oriented attitude. I really hope he can do what he have said.
This news have drawn many other speculations but i do not intend to quote. But i think it would be much more amusing for giving the prize to MJ.

Car Free day
Last Monday was Car-free day, the government openly upheld the activity and those high-rank officials had taken substantial action to brace for the environmental-friendly event. The Chief Executive went to office on foot and Micheal Suen rode bus on the Monday's morning. For our Chief Secretary for Administration Henry Tang, he had opted to take a taxi and leniently shared the cab with Secretary of Justice Wing Yan Lung.
Our Chief Secretary for Administration may think that there's a big different between a taxi and a private car, but i guess most of the citizen gets dissappointed with his choice. The citizen is appealed to dispense with private car and advocated to commute with public transports in Car-Free day. Maybe you will think taxi is also a public transport, but indeed the idea behind Car-Free day is to lessen the emission by reducing the use of private car, i believe that a taxi is identical with a private car in the view of emission of pollutant. So if you rides taxi, basically you have done nothing for the event. In fact, such one-day-event do not pose a very obvious improvement in scientific way, but the most crucial is the symbolical effect to make citizen more vigilant to the environmental affair. The prominent officials should act concretely as a model to appeal the people to diligently concern our living ambience, but not turn to cosmetic way.
The issue is likely to make people think some of the high-rank officials' snub of environmental affair and are politically insensitive. I doubt those rich folks' ability to oversee our city.
