[ Worse Part ]

having e cramp all e way.. yup.. 4km distance.. feel kinda helpless... =( searching n looking forward to water point.. so can get deep heat rub for help... n WAD happen is... " sorry.. we run out off deep heat".. not onli 1 wate rpoint.. but e following water points.. DAmn feel like killing ppl.. ARGh.. reali drag my body to move on... every step i landed on was like.. knees in pain n muscles r aching... imaging tt walking should be e easiest think to do.. but.. i'm wrong.. e more i walk.. e worsen e condition... else if i start jogging.. i felt BETTER.. but my knees receive more pain.. omg.. dunno wad to do too... not onli tt.. i L.S. 3 times~!!! first @ east coast, follow by near e exit of east coast.. n lastly near kallang.. haiz.. terrible.. terrible.. 6 toilets.. 5 mobile.. 3 cannot make it.. either "dry up" / "overflow" / "Stink".. but.. lucky.. i got 2 clean toilet to go to.. lol... Q~ing up for toilet seems to be a common active long e marathon... LOL.

from 28km - 41km...

Been walking from 28km to 41km.. push myself to run for 5 - 10mins.. den have to stop n rest for e knees.. countless of stop n massage my legs.. haiz..

yup.. xiao melvin manage to catch up with me a overtake with with his "fast walking".. lol.. looks weird... but.. speedy.. nice 1... haha.. when i saw e 41km road mark.. i got back all e motivation to push all e way to finishing line... started thinking for e finishing post~! lol... my legs started jogging.. n slowly pick up e speed(like first 20km)... firstly.. i overtake xiao melvin's speedy move.. n all e way to finishing.. Yeah.. its around last 195meters... i saw e timing.. 6hrs 3mins n 50secs... so i faced downward n closed my eyes while keep pushing... e moment i lookup @ e timing.. its 6hrs 3mins n 55 sec... Wad the.. wondering.. if i could my it before 3mins 59 sec... tt's a nice numbers to be printed on e certificate.. lol.. so i increase n increase e speed.. @ e main time.. there tis guy(man).. manage to overtake me before i speed up.. as usual... i overtake him.. n guess wad.. he increases e speed too. so ended up we r like challenging each other.. well.. humble to say.. i'm infront of him. =P lolx...
