Living a Healthy Lifestyle

Walking in the garden ..

Garden is not only a beautiful place to be but also a healthy place walk.It would be great if we do gardening as well.The photo shown was taken at the recent Floria 2013 held for nine days in Presint 2,Putrajaya,Malaysia

Discounted price shoes

I have been eyeing this grreen sole shoes for months but the price remains at RM399.A few days ago when I dropped by at our local Nike Shop at Alamanda,Putrajay,I saw it is offered for 30% less.So I grabbed them because there is not much stock left..

Shoes are important to me when I walk.I simply cannot walk a few kilometres with sandals or slippers like some people.I noticed a few could not care less what they wear when go to jogging.I don't think it is good and safe..

IMHO,good shoes give me comfort,safety and motivate me to walk or run..

A walk with my mother..

Last weekend I took my mother for a short walk along the beach about 5km from our house in Beris,Bachok.I enjoyed the morning sun and the sound of the waves and my mother loves to walk in the shallow waters..

Below is a photo taken by my son Amir.Looking back in the last five months (Jan-May,2011),I managed to log 185km of walking on my Sports Tracker.Compared to the same period last year(2010),I did about 250km-a lag of 65km.My average pace was 11.11min/kmMy new goal is to walk 100km for every two months and to cycle 100km every month.My target walking pace is 10min/km by year end.

Solo canopy..

As I walk ,I snap some photos...

The above is one of them that caused some pains on my neck because I had to look up to see this special phenomena where each canopy of each tree sticks to itself and never encroach into other;s territory.Something that we human must learn from trees..

Running

Every Sunday(mostly), my wife and me will go to KLCC garden and do some jogging around the garden from 7 am to 8 am. In all honestly, we run only 20% of the time-the rest is walking... 

What is so "best" about running? Anyone can do it.What is so great about it? 

Well, not anyone can run-even for my late cousin who passed away two years ago at the age of 40! He died of heart problem:-( I only knew that he could not run despite his age( younger than me ) when I invited him to join me jogging at KLCC garden.Not only he could not run, he also could not do brisk walking.I told myself that I was lucky that I could still experience the joy of running last year. 

But not anymore.. 

However, lately my knees have undergone some bio-chemical degradation.I have minor athritis and my good doctor instructed me not to run anymore:-( Now, I can only walk and will miss the joy of running. 

To those of you who still can run,please do so before you get similar orders from your doctors.Run for your life and enjoy it while you can... 

Running can have two meanings . Make sure you are running to something and not running away from something.If you are running to something, then you have a destination, but if you are running away from something, then you keep running and running.... 

Have a nice weekend to all.

Taman Tasik Ampang Hilir

This is a nice place to do our morning walks.My friend Nazley is the regular guy here..

Repeat:Walk to run

After walking for about 515km in the last 7 months,I realised that I could not move up to a 10km Nike+ program but I need to repeat my previous 5km -12 weeks that I have completed before Ramadhan.I think it may be due to my age.Anyway,I thank Allah swt for His Mercy on me that I am quite healthy for my age and still can walk 10km without any problems.Alhamdulilah!

My new program shall start tomorrow and I hope  to walk with intermittent short runs of  5km  with my wife.Below is a photo of two young men who run and run...
