Balance Lifestyle
long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered. Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible. Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself." The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health , time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love. One day when we look back, we will realize that we don't really need that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed. Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition . Life is definitely not about work! Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life. Life is a balance of Work and Play, Family and Personal time. You have to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of human existence. So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile, Life is short. Do not take Life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy Life!

Sky Adventure Club(SAC) of Taylor's Business School(TBS), one of the most active clubs in TBS have often been associated with nature, outdoors and physical based events like our successful 400km cross country Cycling Pledge and the Adventurace series (an annual event taking the form of Fear Factor and Amazing Race). We also regularly participate in the Earth Day Awareness program as well as sending members annually to the Sea Turtle Research and Conservation Unit (SEATRU) program. Apart from that, we also regularly have hiking, camping, caving, rock climbing, scuba diving, and various other leisure trips.
SAC has decided to take a step further through combining our nature loving and physical challenging activities to organise a charity run through a forest based terrain. We have decided to approach the Malaysian AIDS Foundation(MAF) as we realize that AIDS is a matter of concern throughout Malaysia and we hope that every contribution we give to the MAF will help make a difference in the lives of HIV+ patients.
To raise awareness and funds to a charitable NGO body, Malaysian AIDS Foundation.
To expose the participants to the dangers of AIDS.
To challenge the participants to be physically and mentally strong.
To promote healthy living.
To learn to appreciate nature.

Comments: I think there is no 10 km in this run. It may only be 8 km the most. But the hilly slopes are very challenging. There may be only less than 50 people in our category (the B for women and D for men), and the entire event might just have only like less than 200 people. But these kids have tried their best in organising thie show. I would say they have done a great job to raise fund and put up a good show like this. My friend Mr Loh Wing Keen ran 51 min, I clocked 55 min.
