Event of the year - Finale

Tah Dah ~~~~~~~~~~~~







FINALLY...........It's over! Being the 1st timer, it's already a great sense of achievement though my timing was....kinda lousy :P (1hr 20mins). Indeed, when u are in a race, as much body strength as you need, mental strength is equally important. An inner strength that motivates and keeps you going. Anyway, am glad it's over and the medal................ as long as you finished the race, be it in 1hr or 3 hrs, you'll still get it. So...not really a big deal lah. They should limit it to only those who finished within certain period of time hor......then people can work harder to get it mah. But then, people like me.... may not stand a chance to have it :)

I was sms-ing Damon, my colleague to see how is he doing. (He's doing the full 42Km for the 1st time). The first thing he told me was.. "The pain is TERRIBLE, but still completed the race". I then asked what's his timing. The reply was.........."7+ hours"!!!!!! Oh my goodness, it must be really a torturing experience both physically and mentally. Imangine running for 7+ hours, tat is from 6am to 1+pm. Consider luckly of not suffering from heat stroke man. I'll think I'll be landed in hospital if I'm in his position. JC another fren of mine, who has been training real hard and participated quite a number of marathons completed in 4+ hours. These people are a "superman" to me. Nevertheless, being in such event for the first time and seeing how these professionals run, I think it's really a great sense of achievement to those who finishes the 42km no matter what your timing is.

WELL DONE PEOPLE!!!!!!!
