This was held over last Saturday night. Didn’t sign up for this race. It came kinda last minute. Alex signed up but couldn’t make it, as he’s travelling to Australia. So I stepped in to run under his bib.
Many of my runners friend are away in Singapore for another race. So I kinda went for this race alone. I wasn’t hoping to meet anyone whom I know. But I guess the running circle is small. Met Lik Sng, a runner from Stanchart, also Meng Wai just when the we 21km runners were about to flag off.
Honestly, I didn’t train up for this, therefore I didn’t have high expectation on my performance. Probably because I didn’t sign up for this in the first place.
The route was alright, except I misread the route and pace myself wrongly from the start. Didn’t expect to go through a long stretch of gradual up hill on the first quarter distance of the run. The weather was warm and humid. Probably cause by the late shower in the afternoon.
I would say the organiser done a decent job. The atmosphere was great. There were some percussion group and marching bad along the way to entertain and encourage the runners. Not forgetting those guys that dress in super heroes suit.
I still find it tough to run in a night race. Maybe due to bio clock issue. Body was ready to shut down anytime. But then again, I wouldn’t mind doing it again to see how far my body can push!
