Woke up at 0520 hrs. Race start at 0800 hrs for 25km.
Did the normal preparation. Eat a floss bun with a cup of milo.
Brought along 1 GU gel and GU chomp for this race.
Left home at around 0610 hrs. Walked to take bus 156.
Reached Macritchie just before 0700 hrs and saw those running 50km ran passed.
Proceed to the starting pen and get the bag weigh, weight is around 3km.
Race started on time. Not much training for this year, only ran 1 16km last month and training run never exceeded 20km. Just hoped to finised before the 4.5 hours cutoff timing.
Managed to run the green corridor without stopping.
Finished the GU gel at the 2 hour mark, at the adventure centre.
Also managed to run non stop at the golf course.
At the later stage of the race after 20km, could hardly jog anymore. Simply too tired.
In the end, still managed to complete just under 4.5 hours. Collected the food and took bus 166 to AMK for lunch. Followed by bus 50 home. Reached home at around 1430 hrs.
