Ramadhan

Fasting started again all over the world, in Brunei we started on the 2nd of September, but softball here especially for the Zombies was rested soon after the BNST Chmapionship trophy was won. So most players having their rest till the next tournament which shud be held in October that'll be organize by the Black Arrows.

For some, rest was something luxurious, since some join the try-outs for the National team which if I'm not mistaken for the Malaysia Open in either late October or early November this year. Me too join the try-out, well it started before the fasting month actually, but since the fasting month last monday was the first training/conditioning night, held in the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium.

It was very tiring that night. What else more can I say about that night. The first night in the fasting month. After a very big meal during the sungkai, then 2 hrs plus after that, ran few laps, do some stretching, then few minutes of softball-ing, ending it with few sets of 100m sprinting, you tell me how I felt that night.

As I arrived home, went out of my car, my right knees was cramped, so I have to stand beside my car for a few minutes to relax the muscle, the I rest few minutes in the kitchen, drank few glasses of water, then went to the bathroom. As I looked in the mirror, I looked whiter than usual, well honestly, I looked pale.

Well it makes me to think twice to join the try-out again. But then again I think I have to, just to stay fit and challange myself, I guess..... :) Am I that confident to challenge myself? hehehehhehe

Enjoying fasting to those who do, may this holy Ramadhan brings blessings to us. To those who are resting..... I envy you......... I really do :)
