Ultra Marathon 30 Dec 2007

5 round of MR is about 53km, that has to complete in 12 hours. it is never easy running a marathon on flat road, thus this is inside trail with a longer distance to cover, more slopes and rougher uneven terrain.

mentally not prepare, just run with a openmind
physically not prepare, just walk if i have to
no timing in mind, hope to complete 5 round before 2pm

tomorrow will marks the longest run in a single events since the day i starter a slow jog since 2year ago. let see how it goes... from now on, i will gather enough positive thoughts for tomorrow jounery.

pray for
good cloudy weather
no cramps
easy breathing
zero blister
no abrasion
no injury

result;

9hr40mins

thought;

1 laps, was a breeze, the feeling is good and breathing is fine.
2 laps, felt that my right toe is hurting, take off my sock and found a big blister.
the rest is history...

glad that i had completed my first ultramarathon;

the distance, comes with lots of slopes, cramps, hip pains, tired legs, big blisters, headaches etc,
but it also rewards you with great mental strenght, phyically endurance, encouraging words from strangers and best friends

I am now a ULTRAMARATHONER

see you next 2008
