King of The Road

Tried to sleep around 1030pm but stayed awake until midnight before dozing off. It was not a deep sleep hence I woke up groggy and tired. Contemplated to sleep in and chicken out but the excitement kept me awake. Took a shower and drank a bottle of Tiger beer before I left home, carbs for energy, so they said :p

*taken after the race. stadium is in dire need of a facelift*

Damn! Left my new running shoes in the office. No choice but to use my old Puma which I predicted wouldn’t survive the race, prediction came true… sigh…

*why now!!!*

Reached the stadium around 545am, registration was painless and saw many people running around to warm up. Did a little stretching in the stadium. Menteri Besar Selangor came to flag off the race… yawn…

First 15km, did great but the right sole was giving in… damn… Impressed by the abundance of refreshment stations and the efficiency of traffic police. The reason why it’s called ‘King of the road’, cars had to stop for the runner no matter when/where :p

*lesen untuk jadi road buli heh heh heh*

Hate the course… too many up hills... siao ah! Breathing was OK, but legs’ muscle kaputed… damn… Result: 2 hours 20 minutes for 22.7km… not too bad I guess.

*nyawa nyawa ikan runners*

Status: Limping around on my right foot. Ouch!
