Safra Half Army Marathon

15 Sep 2010 Leave a Comment

Went for Safra Half Army Marathon last Sunday. I had enough water and sleep the night before and I also brought an armband to hold my iPhone, so I can run without carrying it with my sweaty sticky hands. It’s really a hassle to hold your phone in your hands when you are running 10km in a fucking hot weather. You sweat like a pig and fearing if your phone will slip through your hands and dropped on the floor. Anyway, it’s a hassle.

I’ve got everything ready except training. Duhz… I didn’t had much training for this run. Well, whenever I told myself that I’m so going to go for a jog, it rains or something cropped up and I had to forgo my training. I’m not trying to give lame excuses but it just happened. What can I do?

My run starts at 8am. I’m meeting Stephanie at 7.15am at Funan IT Mall. Darling woke me up at 4.30am!!! Reason being, he feared that there’s no carpark lot for us. Okay, darling is super typical KS Singaporean can! But he’s already considered very nice to drive me there.

By the way, did I mentioned that I didn’t wear the sponsored running tee given by Safra? It’s damn ugly can!!! And I still thought it might only be Stephanie and me the only ones who are not wearing it, but I realized it’s almost 90% of the participants are NOT wearing that fugly tee!!!

Another thing I would like to announce… I AM NOT GOING TO JOIN SAFRA RUN EVER AGAIN!!! coz those army guys are stink!!! I almost suffocated and died on the spot, lucky for I have strong determination plus a little blocked nose that morning.

We participated in 10km women open category, but we ended up running 15km (as according to my iPhone apps – runmeter). The whole journey took us 1hour 31minutes… okay lah, not too bad. I’ve injured my right leg, and I’m pasting Salmopas everyday. Still a bit pain.
