Chawat

I learned a new word "CHAWAT". What I am wearing is not a sarong but a chawat that is worn by some tribal group. In fact most tribal people seem to wear little, either leaves or modest bits of cloth like this unless you come from some Nordic or Antarctic tribe.

This photo was taken on our GH5 Merdeka Freedom run on 30 August 2011. After the run we had to wear a sarong and those that do not have a sarong was given this to wear :-).

I had not been running for 9 weeks as I did my ankle mid-June and it is still not 100%. The fact that my belly is protruding shows that I have not been exercising much :-). I just walked that day.

On December 10 we have an annual dinner and the theme is "cartoon". I was thinking of painting my body green and turn up as the Incredible Hulk which is my hash name. If I don't lose my belly I may have to turn up as Fat Albert or Fred Flintstone :-(.
