When is the last time you've been really proud of a family member?
What made you so proud?
For me, it was a few days ago, when my husband completed his first full marathon. that's running some 42.192 km! He trained really hard for it, and I had to be supportive in the sense of looking after our baby alone.
He tried to minimise disruption to our schedules by waking up really early to start running at around 5:30am so that by the time the baby is up, he's usually on his way back. it helps that there is a nice route from where we live to a large park where he can run for miles.
After so much training he participated in the Singapore Marathon and wasn't sure whether he could complete it. But by God's grace he did! In 6.5 hours. So happy for him.

U are really proud of him huh?? hehe ^_^
but what makes him wanna take part in it, in the first place?? INterest, or wanting to prove to himself, he can do it?? haha =D
NO matter what, it's not easy to complete the full distance, and he does really deserve the honour, together with u feeling proud of him!

That is wonderful to hear. Congratulations to him. I was very proud of my daughter in the last week. she is finally going to be able to graduate high school. she has not missed any years but it has been a struggle for her to make the grades to get there. She found out the other day, she will graduate.
