I ran my own race..42.195k...it was a BITCH..
Omg..haha
well here i am still alive and kicking so as you can see, i SURVIVED hahaha..
The marathon was last sun but yeah..i was so tired and aching the whole week that i just could not be bothered to write, and plus the fact that i tried to go rugby training on thurs. Lets just say it wasn't a great idea of mine. =(
Was suppose to sleep early on Sat night, before the race but i wanted to go to Muse @ National museum for a friend's event so ended up sleeping ard like one plus and woke up at ard 4 something?..man..never again will i stay out the night b4 a big race. Hahaha..
Well john and i left ard 4 plus and headed to Mac's to load up on carbs!..noting does it quite well like a Mac's Breakkie. We had double sausage Macmuffin withe egg..MAn..that does Hit the spot.haha..and we were like eating while driving to suntec. It's like i received so many msg from my friends all wishing me good luck and then they added .." eh..ure missing out on the partyin @ zouk.its Dave seaman" hahhaha thanks guys!! hahaha..with friends like these..who need enemies ay? *grinzs*
Well it was a really guresome race..lets just say im so glad it's over ..and happy that i managed to acheive something like this...the scenery is really something to see when you're running along the route...yes it might have been far and long but it was worth every gut winching pain that i had to endure with each step i took...
i remember as i hit the 30k mark..man..it was just mind games all the way..
at first i thought i could get by ..with just focusing my sight on the road ..blocking out everything else..that sought of worked for a while then the pain kicked in..WHoa...man...worst than anything i've ever experienced. -_-''''''
but seriously..its best to run this with a mate or a group cause i dont think i can do this alone..seriously. John broke away from the pack ard the 25k but i managed to pick up the pace and caught up with him and it was just us two pushing each other all the way to the finish line..man..we were just talking to each other and pushing each other all the way..
CraZy stuff man...*sigh*
but at the end of it all, when u see that finish line coming in sight, and with hundreds of people cheering u on towards the finishing line, it's so worth it..some of the supporters or runspirators as they are called..came and ran beside me for the last 1k..haha..appreciate their support..
End of the day..its about self-commitment and get through it in the end..
I may have gotten the medal..but the most impt thing is ...i pushed myself to the max..to a place where i never knew i could reach..and thats really priceless..
knowing that the human mind can be pushed to such great depths..
Stand Chart Marathon 2008!...here i come...
