Late update on Penang Bridge Marathon : -
I participated in the Fun Run (10km) together with some other crazy and wacky (esp Ruo Yun and Jia Ying) friends. =)
Here are a few pics!
Before the run. It was around 0700 hours, a bit chilly yet a nice weather for running.
As you can see, this year's shirt for Fun Run is white, which I think is kinda dull. D=
Group photo!
From left : Chiu Sien, Jia Ying, Ruo Yun, Jun Hong, Liang Kit and me.
Go! It was really crowded cause there're approx. 10,000 Fun Runners. @_@
The route of Fun Run starting in front of the newly built Eastin Hotel, a U-turn at the 8km mark on the bridge and back to Queensbay Mall
Hoho obviously, I made it within the 1 hour 30 minute time limit. I finished it in 1 hour 13 minutes I think. Jun Hong made it first then me, following by Liang Kit. Soooo happy I got the cert. *Ha Ha Ha Ha!* As for the girls, I din't really ask. xP
Lee Quan, Leong yew, Ee Jern and the other 6 ran for Half Marathon (21km), time limit of 3.5 hours, started at 0330 hours. They all received their Silver medals as a proof of completing the run in time! Sir Ryui Bynn and Sir Shang Shi (scouters whom I knew from Malaysia Scouts Jamboree 2006) ran for Half Marathon too and weren't excluded from getting the medals. People with good stamina.. *thumbs up* Ah.. too bad I forgot to take pics with them. *sigh*
I went back home after the *un*lucky draw, limping my way back. Hamstring, quad ceps and intercoastal muscles were aching. Don't ask me about the intercoastal mucles, I just feel the ache around my ribs. xP
One more update to come - Of lactic acid and 3 hours of 30 degrees angle of elevation!
