Today is the Nike Human Race held together with 25 other country that starts altogether at the same time. I can imagine those who run in the middle of the day, siao bo... oh well, In Singapore, we are starting at 430pm, not too bad considering that it rained a little just now.
waited for a while with Kenny for Stanley, he is no where to be seen. Kenny and myself walked towards the start point and get ready. notice that the crowd this evening is rather young. cool! lots of meis :) on the way, saw an "Grumpy old man" in a white sgrunners t shirt, oh hey, its LT... keke i am kidding.
starting of the route was already in a bottle neck. where there was not much of a running space to over take. ( i remember the thread i written about slow runners) in the mid of shenton turning left, the route finally opened up for more room. reached the first cp in 11mins. i guess the distance is about 2.5km. running back to shenton way and back to the start pt. we continue to esplande and to a round route into the boat key. after 40mins into the run, i felt a little dizzy and decided to stop and walk a little. took some drinks and saw cookie along the way, he is enjoying the run and snapping photo away. not sure of the distance at all, i only can estimate when i reached each CP for 2.5km.
looking at my watch, 52mins. i heard the Marshall shouting 1more km to finished, i decided to open up the stride and finished strong. along the way, saw roonz zoom past me, oh she is fast!
finish 10km in 56mins (est) giving that i walked a lot and not enough sleep last night, i am happy with the result.
