Hit or Miss pretty much sums of my runs lately. Each time I head out, I have no idea what to expect. A good run? A bad run? An "is this even running" run? And it's seriously messing with my head.

So alas I managed to go for this finale on the 2nd September when the Global Team and Canada demonstrated their fireworks. It was magnificent and since I did not see the rest, I could not compare with the other teams. I heard that the Malaysian team put up a good show too.
