SCMS 2010

It had been an amazing race, really is... I may sound boastful for posting my timing everywhere but hey, to be honest, we all know the timing is not really that good. 01:15:08 for 10km? Even i could do better in Nike Human race last year. Ranked 4394? It means there are thousands of runners (both guys and girls) much faster than me!

Despite all these, i am happy with the results. Very happy indeed. I wasn't running non-stop or was i in the mood for running. A night before the run, my friend told me he is not going. When i woke up that day, i received another sms from another friend, telling me that he is not going. Thankfully, Stephanie contacted me on SAT to ask if i want to travel to the start point together. On the way there, last friend was uncontactable! (He is still sleeping!)

The run signified my health condition! My knee did not fail me, but my fitness did! I was almost out of breath during the run, having stitch and even black out (almost) when i finished the run! I was very well hydrated after the run, not before. I got to drink mineral water after the run, collect the finisher medal before getting a cereal bar & a can of 100-plus... Ermei even treat me to the free food offer by the title sponsor to their staff (Ermei's sis is working there). Hence, i got myself free lunch with 2 ice-cream! Now you know why i never slim down despite the run...

If my knee allows me... i aim to complete 3 races next year. Adidas Sundown, Nike Run & SCMS 2011! Of course, my standard can only go for 10k. In fact, I already had friends who are willing to run with me for Adidas Sundown! Hooray!
