What happen when you carbo load too much the night before a long run and you did not actually cover enough distance to justified the food last night? Simply damn myself.
3 bowl of curry, rice, 10pm sleep and I end up waking up 1 and 1/2 hour late for a long run. Pack and rushed off to the start point and not forgetting to scold myself in the meantime. I reached MR and of cos, the gang was far gone into the trail.
The Carpark was full and many are waiting, I make 2 rounds in the carpark and decided to go home and face the wall, when I am unable to find a space in the 3rd round. lucky, I found one. Started off the run at 9am. It was HOT and I think the humidity was above 120. I was sweating so much.. but I kinda like this, especially from the last bike ride, I was unable to perspire. 25mins out of the first halt, I slowed jog towards the ranger station, looking for the toilet.
After a quick break, I ran off towards the Ammo Dump, in the mind calculating the time and distance, where I should be able to meet the gang half way mark. 2.5km into the trail, the up and down slope, I got near the Ammo dump, I saw them! it was not difficult to spot them.. then I heard, "hey ninja training huh?" reorg with the gang again, we jog-walk back to ranger station and then back to the start point. 2hours for me and distance around 15km.
The leg was ok, not too sore, but I think the mental is weak. Hot weather will be expecting during the race, I think we should accustomed once or twice and try running at 10am.
nice Buffet with the gang after that, of cos, the accompany was always better than the food.
