tadaaa... my seventh run for this year. ahahah i think i'm mad already, i actually joined 3 runs in September. every week go for one running events lol.
and this run was at Bedok Reservoir, finally a new running route instead of the very common a
usual Marina area. but to think of the dead bodies found there recently *pray*, don't go near the water =S haha.
and Moo overslept. i waited for him at my house bus stop for quite sometime for him to drive from Bukit Panjang to my place, and then all the way to Bedok Reservoir. we reached there 15 minutes before the flag off time, but then we could not find any parking lot nearby. in the end, he drove to a very far parking place at some HDB area, and we have to take bus over to the Bedok Reservoir.
and what's worse, when we finally boarded the bus, Moo then realised he left his race bib in the car. godamnit, so he alighted at the next bus stop and ran his way back to his car to take it, while i stay in the bus and go all the way to the starting point.
the run started off at 7.30am, while i only started mine at 7.45am. haha. and i'm not in my best running condition today, due to the over-exert dance yesterday which hurts my butt and legs badly, i spammed alot of counterpain, muscle rub, yokoyoko, etc which gave me the damn burning feel on my thigh.
so when i started running till 4km, the burning sensation acts up, burning my back thigh. i struggled myself to complete the remaining 6km with the burning feeling following me throughout ='( so freaking painful!

Finisher Tee Redemption Coupon
the queue for that was horribly long.
and half way queueing, i saw this very familiar face, and take a more closer look. it's one of my bunch of buddies i always hang out with, Seok Chin. to think i managed to bump into him in this kind of so-many-people-condition. haha. must be because of my super sharp eyes :D
immediately went to look for him after collecting my finisher tee and my bags. yea, to say hi talk cock sing song, since he's standing down there to wait for brother's girlfriend, Moo and me also stand down there to wait for Shu Hua.

a picture with him...

and Shu Hua is finally back =D
and we left after that, didn't even bother to wait for the lucky draw. we took a bus back to that HDB area for his car, retrieved back my stuffs inside his car and he dropped me back at Bedok Reservoir to meet Aston. too back Aston left early and i'm being left alone. arghh, if he told me earlier, i would have followed Moo's car back home. now i have to squeeze bus squeeze train with so many people lol.

finisher medal.

MIZUNO WAVE RUN 2011Labels: HSS friends, mad, running
whee. fifth run for the year, SAFRA Singapore Bay & ARMY Half Marathon 2011. yes, just exactly one week right after my KOTR. i think i must be mad, run and run non-stop.
anyway, i almost gonna missed this run. i took 124 there, never expected that the road was blocked, bus route changed due to the run. i wanted to alight at City Hall area, but it looped to the other direction. i thought it would stopped somewhere near Bugis area, so i can walk over. but then the bus bring me to Orchard area instead.
damn, alighted at Takashimaya there, wanted to take a cab there, but all taxi drivers doesn't bring me over there due to heavy road blockage. i have no choice but to walk from Orchard Central to Dhoby Ghaut, and take train over there.
there's so many people there, flooded with so many army boys. i had such a hard time looking for the baggage deposit area, only did i realise there's no booth for baggage. it's somewhere place on the ground, with barrier to block it. wth, search like. and then immediately went over to the starting point to look for Ginnette. we were actually late for 30 minutes, 10km runners has already flagged off. we ended up starting the run together with the 5km runners.
start point

STARTING SOON
well, we started together with the 5km runners, and was following them blindly. there's a point which the 10km runners have to u-turn extra distance inside. however, due to the fact that the rest of the runners around us were all 5km runners, we overlooked the sign saying "10km runners turned right"... and followed them.
it was only until we reached the first water point when we realised we missed out one u-turn. my handphone was like tracking at 2.8km, but the sign board for 10km runner was already at 4km. i was like what the hell!!!! make us totally no mood to run since the distance already all inaccurate ='(

mascot for AHM?

and finally.
