The cost of an adventurous (read: crazy) run in Bali this weekend.

Garmin Burn
The shape of my garmin foreruner branded onto my wrist.

Zebra stripes
My invisible running tee. :)

Medication
Aloe Vera and painkillers. Need I say more?

Yeouch! That hurts. I'm prone to burns too and Aloe Vera does soothe the pain some, but ooo...I feel for you!

yikes! this so reminds me of my 'singlet tan' post in April. Hehe! Well, aloe vera definitely helps. But wait til your skin starts peeling....

Thanks for all the sympathy guys..

Brenda, I think that is way way cool. :) I should give you my SIP number from Gizmo that lets you call me from your mobile in US for local/ long-distance charges. But I can't get Gizmo to co-operate at the mo, so that is out for now.

What were the shoes you were considering?

Asics is my favourite brand of running shoes too! :) But yes, they are quite expensive..

One way to save a bit of money is to see if you can fit into their JR shoes. They come in fairly large sizes and are only slightly more than half the price. You don't get the fancy heel-memory or the technology that ensures a good heel to toe movement, but the cushioning is exactly the same.

I may get one of these as an extra pair at some point..
