26 August '07
What a finish for my 21km half marathon this morning! Last night though I finish blogging at 11.50pm, I did not went to bed immediately. Instead, I was lying on the bed watching late movie on channel 8. Finally felt sleepy at around 1am.Set the alarm, & woke up at 3.15am to prepare for the run in the morning. Waking so early partly because of my buddy JAMES LOO. He forgotten to take home his number chip for the run & I got to fetch him back to camp to take it. Damn it! Hahahaz!
4.30am arrange to meet up with SGT GUS from the police force. He is driving us down for the run. He is in the competitive wave whereas James, Qaiyum & I were in the non-competitive wave. Anyway we were late for the run. Reaching the start line around 5.50am. We drove on ECP but didnt expect it to block all entry to it. We tried entering through Nicoll Highway but all entry block out. So in the end we drove through geylang & hit back through Beach road... a big round...Gus was speeding cause he is really late... nevertheless we got to our destination...he parked his car at Suntec City & change out to his running shoes with us...we dashed up to the start point but on the same time, we took a 15secs peeing at the side of the bush! Hahaha 4 of us! What a joke...
We started running once we reached the start point...Gus & I were running together & James + Qaiyum... Gus who took part many marathon & iron man races...this was nothing to him...his speed was pretty fast for me until I lost his pace at the 11km mark. Anyway into the 5km run, there was accident, where a Black Sabaru & Taxi ...ramba! poor Sabaru! it was really crowded with runners....but of course there were many pretty babes that were running along side...
Took 1hr 38mins to complete my whole run...legs are wobby! Bean Sprout... feeling weak in knees & calf muscle... to Gus it was like normal...OMG! but anyway completed the race below 2hrs is gd... next year another time? shall see... Dear told me to get a medal for her so I did... hahaha!
Running was pretty cool....but this 21km doesn't seems to end....what a PAIN!
Reached home with a tightly tensed muscle...but had a warm bath & good rest... mum cooked laksa this evening for dinner...FABULOUS! DELICIOUS! it is always good to have her home...oh yah packed 2 bowls for WeiWei parents to eat...kind of SHOCKED them...hahaha!
Kk gtg to sleep early tonight...tomorrow lesson + tuesday got Guard Duty at night + wednesday is 28km graduation march for BSLC in the evening to Thursday morning 4am. Shall blog if I have time next week....really a busy week !
1 last thing condolences to the family of OCS officer CAPTAIN. He passed out when he finished his 21km run... what a sad moment after completing. Dear friends do take care of urself... gd night & rest well....
