Sundown Marathon


Its da fourth year of Sundown and its da second time im taking part. I missed the first year because im still not into marathon and the third year was because of working. This year im taking up the 10km challenge because i know im unable to run all da way for 42km as i have given myself twice to proof that i can't and nobody accompany me for 21km. haha.. this year my partner is a gurl wor.. haha.. so if on da way no strength liau also cannot stop as cannot lose face.. haha.. 大男人!
Yesterday, started at 6pm sharp, there i go through the starting gantry. There were 9000 people so u can imagine how pack is it. actually is always the same in each marathon, the first 5km is very hard to maintain ur own speed as keep need to overtake, avoid and brake as too many people in the picture.
I nvr had a chance to c how good this gurl is in running but yesterday i only know she is GOOD in it. hahaha.. her pace was quite similar as mine so it is not hard to adapt. at around 8.5km, without giving signal, her ferrari auto gear suddenly pick-up make my manual mini lao pok car trailed behind her.. haha.. adding a turbo consist of "Nitrogen, carbon dioxide, oxygen, methane, and hydrogen sulfide" haha.. im able to c her back light again.. haha..
together we finally passed through the finishing gantry in 1hr 5mins and 06 seconds! yeah we made it..

* paid $40++ for this marathon but what i got is only a singlet and a few discount vouchers in da goodie bag.. its such a shame of NB in its first year of organizing this event as compared to Adidas. At least, during adidas session, we felt that we did not paid the money just for the marathon.. we still get sumthing back. A lot of frens also complaint about the same matter..
