Relieving stitch!
This has been a common problem for me.. less so recently since I've stopped running. But useful tips to remember next time it comes back!

Here are a few other stitch relieving tricks to get you back to your best...
+ Reach both your arms into the air and stretch out your body to release the diaphragm. If you can, do this while you're still running and maintain the stretch for 30 seconds.
+ When you've started exercising, avoid taking huge gulps of water and stick to small regular sips instead.
+Release tension by checking your posture. Are you running with your fists clenched and your shoulders hunched? Shake out and relax your body as much as possible.
+ Press the painful area with your hand and massage the pain as you move. Applying force to the stitch should loosen up the tense area and relieve the worst of the stabbing pains.

2013
It's 2013. Wow.
10 years ago, 2013 does not even sound like a reality. In 2003, 2013 sounds like a year where cars will be flying in the air, everything is done by robots... the typical futuristic world (okay maybe that's 2030, but you get my point). But here we are, man are still walking on the ground, we still get stuck taking trains that break down every so often and maids, not robots, are helping with our household chores.
Yet, despite that, there has been much changes. Changes in technology seems to be one of the biggest, from 2G to 3G to 4G in a short span of time.. with kids as young as as a few months old using iPhones/ iPads and the likes. It's scary how fast and drastic the world is changing in that aspect.
2013, new year new beginning. When I visited my blog, I cringed at the negativity, sadness and anger I saw. Therefore, I decided to archive all of my previous posts and start afresh.
2012 was a year that called for courage. It was a year of many 'firsts'. 2013 is going to be a year of faith. It will be a year of major decisions.
Like every year, the beginning of the year prompts an urge to set new resolutions. Unlike every year, I will try to keep them this year (so I say). Limiting myself to just 10 measurable resolutions may make this a more achievable task.
Life
1) To make a new friend a month
2) Keep in touch with old friends (Meeting each of my close friends at least once in 2 months)
3) Making an effort to hang out with the family (Going out for dinner/ activities once every month)
4) Pick up a new skill/ join a class/ participate in a CIP
5) Cook more/ Improve photography skills
Health
5) Improving physical fitness - Work out at LEAST once a week, work towards 3 times a week
7) Drink water (at least 1.2l everyday!)
8) Use masks religiously
Finance
9) Financial planning (Buy insurance, track expenses and savings)
Love
10) Trust. Think then react.
