run a 10K
It wasn't that far away

I ran a very slow 10K, my time is around 1:15. That means I take 7,5 minutes per KM (compare to the winners who can do 10K under 30 minutes, whose pace is 3 minutes per KM!)

At first my goal was just to be able to finish. Now my goal is to better my time.



grow my own vegetables
I started

with mini roma tomato plants. There are 4 tomato plants in 50-cm pot together with a medium-sized palm tree. The oldest one is now about 15-20 cm high. I didn’t take note when exactly the seed sprouted, I think about one month ago. It amazes me by growing so fast! I notice progress on height & leaf size everyday. Can’t wait till the plant matures and flowers and starts producing tomatoes! Then I can list this as done :)
If this tomato experiment is successful I will try out other plants like chili, aubergine, zucchini, and something leafy.
