Army Half Marathon


Army Half Marathon

Wooohoo!!! Today completed my first half marathon... 2 hours and 25 minutes of gruelling run of 21 km...

fri life! got this section on running in singapore and apparently running is the number one sport in singapore. and today was a great proof. not only were there so so so many pple, there were ppl from all ages and both sex.

some of them are quite fast. my fren complained that he was cut by two aunties. i saw many elderly men, women and girls still going strong even at 18 - 20 km mark. they kinda motivated me to continue running and overtake them. bwahahaha.

while the run was tough, it wasnt really that impossible lah. q surprisingly, the 'climb' up sheares bridge wasnt the toughest part. there were many other up-slopes like the one from outram mrt to neil road. but as long as u see other pple going, you'll just follow along.

ahhh... my legs are aching now... and there are abrasion all over my body... didnt realise until i bathed and switched on the shower head. owww...
