Imba. Seriously imba. Once is enough.
Ran the first 24 km with Jona(yes i actually ran), then we started stopping at more water points, then further away from water points, and subsequently ran to water points and walked the rest. Oh and we also ran when we saw cameras.
Actually it was quite fine, except that I dropped my kneecaps somewhere along the way, and one of the audi safety vehicles ran over them. I eventually located them in like 1000 different locations all over the island and pieced them back together. Unfortunately, there were some mistakes with regards to the puzzle caps cuz right my knees felt like my ankles and my ankles like my soles and my soles like my knees. Ok there's no difference cuz they all feel the same, or rather don't feel at all.
Well it wasn't really that fine..
I proudly wore the "Finisher of 42.195km" shirt home, glad that my timing was not reflected on the shirt.
Maybe next year they should have different shirts, like "Finisher of 42.195km >3hr", "Finisher...>4hr", "Finisher...>5hr", and finally "Finisher...senior citizen edition". Oh and maybe even "Finisher of 42.195km Stan Chart big walk".
I woke up today(thank God I woke up) after a 1000000 hour slumber feeling ok. In fact I can now walk.
Haha I'm not the only one, as can be seen from many others' facebook and msn nicks. Fellow peers who succumbed to the "oh lets go for a marathon, at most walk only lor" pressure, and subsequently berated themselves for their stupidity like 100m into the race.
A voice in my subconsiousness says I might do this again.
Noooooooooooo..
Lets go for Sing Bi. Lol..

Extremely under-prepared for tomorrow's run. The feeling of impending doom lurks, just like when going for an exam I know I'm going to screw up because I didn't study. Except I didn't pay $75 to sign up for exams, which just adds a tinge of stupidity.
Not that the Stan Chart fever and gastric flu really helps alleviate my situation in any way. Ah well, think of the mega big mac tomorrow afternoon.
If I don't end up at a hospital where there's no Macs.
Screwed Screwed Screwed Screwed Screwed.
On a brighter note, 64. Excluding block leave, cny, wisdom tooth, random appointments, random offs. Heh
Ah I need to sleep.
Good luck to everybody for tomorrow.
Good luck to me :s
