It doesn’t mean anything to you but it means something to me.

Yes, I’m still wearing the black ribbon to honor Boston marathon bombing victims and also to honor our runner friend, Gede.

Yesterday was a sad sad sad day…



I made 102 black ribbon for IndoRunners in order to respect those who affected by Boston bombing. But turned out that we also wore it for the loss of our dear friend, Gede.



I read news at whatsapp group that Gede has passed away. I was totally in shock. Last SMR I asked him to take my pic with Ibu Mia and vice versa. Yes, I knew Gede by his reputation. In IndoRunners, besides runner… he was also known as the photographer. His photography artwork is so beautiful.

After his first HM in HK, I started to get to know him a little bit. We talked after TNR. My radar telling me that he’s a nice person. He has a good heart. And he’s funny. Last TNR, when we were crossing the street to fX, I smiled when he told me that he wanted to watch Disney on Ice with his gebetan.

But, I shall be happy that even within such a period of time… I had the opportunity to get to know him.

Gone to soon, indeed. I’m sure you are in a happier place, Gede. You will be missed.
