Below is my timing..about 5 hrs 53 mins. 3 mins better than last year. 2nd marathon. This year is really a tougher run than previous. As the humidity is killing us. When reaching 20km, a small voice telling me to sneak into a taxi and go home sleep instead as i began feeling heavy legs. But thinking spending so much time training, i just continue running. Compare to last year, i did improve timing at the stretch of 20km to 30km. I was quite surprise still can run at this stretch.
But came to the last 10km, i was already having severe pain at my calf and whole leg muscle, so i just jog, walk and crawl to complete the toughest run of my life. It was a relief when i finished, but sitting down for half hour still not enough to forget about the pain. The atmosphere was great though, having so many crazy folks running together at wee hours. All panting, but still showing fantastic strong will and mental power to continue pushing and running. i admired those runners who run passed me. For those who completed the marathon, we deserve the satisfaction of completion. So runners, lets come join us next year.
