Tired but REWARDING ♥

Title : Putrajaya Night Marathon 2010
Date : 6th Feb 2010
Venue : Putrajaya Presint 3 is the starting point :)


Our voices were an octave high with excitement. We were just truly deeply madly excited over the marathon. 13 of us departed to the destination after Yit Serng fetched me at 7 sharp. Guess what we were nervous to the point of nausea and kept eating the energy bar to boost our energy level to the max.

Eemay and I were the only two girls among the bunch of big boys. Both of us took part in 7.7km while the rest professional runners i named them took part in 21km. Our race started at 9 sharp and imagined what, I almost suffocated when all of us queue at the starting point to get the best kick start after the gun shot. Yea not the first time I wish to be taller because the air up there was much fresher :p

So we managed to queue at the very first 4th row after doing some warm up!! The crowd was so huge that it made my heartbeat picking up. Sweat dewed on the back of my neck and my hands turned to ice. and we just ran consistently following our breathing non stop for continuous 2km and I started to feel stomachache. Perhaps too much excitement and lack of warm up or too much dinner I wondered?

But still managed to get back to the ending point at 65 minutes for 7.7km while the great eemay completes the run for only 55 minutes :D

Exhaustion took the best of me after completion of the run. Milo and energy drinks were provided. Our shirts were totally wet. The wind whipping my hair in my face and blinding my eyes. WE DID IT !

So next both of us came back to the 21km and 42 km ending point and waited for yit serng them to reach the ending point. There were a lot of elderly ppl who ran much faster than we the youngster! I drummed my fingers, they snapped against the floor, staccato, and anxious. and we helps them to cheer whenever there were ppl reached the ending point, yelling and clapping hands :D

pardon us we were way too untidy and smelly after the run :)
