My entire weekend was filled with this marathon. Went to collect our racepacks at Expo with reen on Saturday. Surprisingly empty, we only had to wait like, a minute? Yayness.
Then at another hall, they had this Loreal/Maybelline/Garnier (almost every cosmetic brand you could think of) sale. It was filled with Phillipinos and all sorts of women you can find luh. They practically fought their way through the various counters to snatch stuff. Women are scary people. Reen got good bargains for her powder and stuff, and i only spent like 5 bucks for like '2' concealers *teehee*, which usually cost like tens of dollars. Yayness. Shall grab the photos from reen soon.
So just this morning, i had to wake up at 4.30am to get ready for the race. We managed to complete the 21km in approximately 3 hours plus, adding on to the fact that i had to make a detour to Suntec City's toilets (thanks to my horrible tummy ache), and we went to help a man, probably in his 50s to stretch as he was suffering from cramps. I was no better. My knees were like giving way, though i wasn't panting much. I can hardly walk properly now. Yikes! But on another note, congrats to me and reen! At least we did slightly better than last year! :D
I guess i would never dare to join the full 42km marathon. After meeting dear after he had finished the full 42km, i doubt that i would ever join. Everybody who had ran the full marathon were like limping around like zombies man. Abrasions everywhere. Really admire those runners. Congrats dear, on being the finisher of 42.195km!
