This was drafted on 26 May 2008 but only got published today!

i was right on track with my training until i recieved this memo from the top management that we will be organizing a trip to langkawi for 4 days and i have been nominated to join a trade and investment mission to the U.S.
What worries me is that my 38km training run is right smack in the middle of my langkawi trip and my tapering routine starts when i'm in the U.S., and not to mention the jetlag and all.
anyhow, i'm just a government servant who has to take orders...
