woohoo. my fourth run for this year - Adidas King Of The Road. this would be my first time running 16.8km. so far, i have never tried running for more than 10km before, and all of a sudden i am running 16.8km. hopefully, i can survive.
had to share cab with Ginnette, Dickson and hos friend in the morning. yea, by way of taxi-hopping. Dickson will take cab from Clementi and all the way down to our house area to pick us up.
we alighted at somewhere near Esplanade area, and and and yeah i saw Rui Feng patrolling down there. haha. he was busy lah, so didn't went up to him. anyway, quickly walked over to the starting point at The Padang. it was super duper early, the sky was still so dark. deposited our bags and then walked over to the starting point.

number bib on

look at the distance.
i see already also started to worry, it's so long =/
lane closure yo

getting ready.

nearing to the starting point

START
here we go, off we run
it's gonna be a long run. started off with slow jog in order to maintain the stamina. and it's true that running slowly can maintain the stamina. i still felt full of energy when i reached 10km.
i was running together with Dickson and Ginnette until 13km, it was until there that i decided to run off for the last 3.8km myself to the finishing point. i see my handphone battery showing me the deadly red bar, and i was tracking my distanc half way only. so i have to chiong off to the finishing line lol.
yes, it was when my energy was drained out, i used up everything for the last 3.8km. i need to rest badly...

at 8km, half way through....

and yay. it's 10km
if it's my normal run, i would have completed it..
BUT now... i still have 6.8km more to go ><
and and.. .COMPLETED FINALLY after 2.5 hours...
after collecting my finisher medal, immediately dropped down to the grass field and rest. i am so tired after the run. waited for sometimes before i finally found them walking to the other end of the field.
we went to collect our bags first, before setting down and take a rest.

look at all the tired people.
so colourful!~
