first marathon (and maybe the last).

12 Jan

okayyyy, so i’ve been wanting to update this space about interesting things in my life. but turns out that my life just isn’t that interesting.

besides, i always feel tired after work (signs of ageing). if not, i go out after work sometimes, and when i reach home, i’m too tired to turn on the computer again. i clock crazy hours every time there is an event, which is like…almost every month FTS.

i edit, resize and upload pictures, then i lose the motivation to blog. sleep overtakes me.

point is, i’m lazy.

ok next point and most important point…..*insert drum rolls*

i completed my first ever standard chartered marathon!!!!

ok fine, so it’s only 10km. but it’s A LOT to me! considering that i hardly ever exercise, and the only time my feet moves faster than the brisk walking speed is when i run for my bus or when a cockroach chases after me in the HDB carpark at fatbear’s place wtf.

so well, 10km is an accomplishment! plus!!!!! i didn’t stop at all! i managed to run all the way from the starting point to the finishing line! *thumps chest proudly*

only had about 2 gym trainings prior to the race. errr. clocking about 5km in each session. never tried 10km at all. oh yea, i ate macdees just the day before the race. #likeaboss

awake so early, feeling like i can conquer the world. lol. probably my lack of sleep talking. slept only 4 hours that night. above picture was taken prior to the race, on the way to the starting point.

you can go buy toto with my race number already hahahahah. but fyi, the number didn’t even get any prize for 4D or toto lah. lousy.

just before the race line. don’t know why would people want to waste their energy and start jogging even when the race line is so far off?

Obviously i was half-dead throughout the entire race so i didn’t take any during-race pictures. the above picture was after the race, at the huge field where you find the sponsors’ tents and all that stuff.

This was taken by my colleague who also went for the race. i didn’t bring my camera for this race. he ran throughout with his cam lor! hahahha.

err mandatory photo with the photowall.

bo bian. don’t take now, don’t know when can take again…doubt i have the guts, fats and energy to participate in another marathon. this one really killed my immune system.

right after this race, i came down with flu, headache, sore throat and fever…all within that same day. don’t even get me started about the bad body and muscle aches =.=””

and hor, my after race pics all damn ugly, so had to use mei tu xiu xiu. HAHAHAHA. what! who runs 10km at one go and still can look hot! don’t tell me about movies or celebs…*threatening glare*

i can haz a BMW balloon although i don’t have a BMW. HAHA.

say hello to my pink nikes! <3

so…..my race results! not the best, not the worst too! i daresay it’s pretty darn good for a first-timer and someone who never trained prior to the race!

actually i’m just glad i did’t die (literally) halfway or towards the ending point. my heart was beating so hard and fast in my ribcage. T___T close to seeing stars. even the thought of food didn’t manage to motivate me to run faster; the only personal goal was to NOT stop my pace.

there! i’ve blogged. transferred pictures from camera into hard disk. things don’t look that good HAHAHAH. wahlau eh, my TW pics from years ago never even edit finish lor. can die pls.

goodbye.
