Week 6? Trailwalker...EXTREME!!!

Back in October I signed up with 3 colleagues to walk the 1st annual 'Macau Trailwalker' 10k fun-walk/run (we walked...more like, 'leisurely strolled'). It took us on a 10k trail around some nice vistas on the island of Coloane here in Macao.

     It was relatively uneventful except for 3 things:

1) MACAO IS A MAGICAL ISLAND: At the starting point, I and a friend of mine saw this German guy who totally looks like the character "Jacob" from the TV show "Lost". She quickly came up with some thin premise to take a picture with him so we can say we met the guy from "Lost" (incidentally we started ruminating on the similarities between our lives and that show; we live on an island, we are all living strange and different lives since landing, we got here in an airplane--although ours did actually land--and I once saw this lady here who looked like a Chinese Michelle Rodriguez). Anyway, I'll let you be the judge:

"Jacob" from "Lost"

Boom! Caught you Jacob! Now give me three wishes!

2)  THE SPIRIT OF COMPETITION: We ended up stopping for egg tarts and some sight-seeing. I'm not a professional athlete or trainer but this may have negatively impacted our finish time for the 10k 'walk'...which was 4 hours 13 minutes...

3) POWERWALKING!!!!! I got to powerwalk this thing...hardcore! As demonstrated by this video:

 

Macau-wabunga...EXTREME!
