Sentosa Real Run 2006

This is my 1st time running 10k & I was feeling pretty nervous. I decided to sleep "very early" so that I can wake up to have a light breakfast. Sigh....given a choice, I would rather sleep longer than eat; & I've the habit of not eating in the morning. So I did some channel surfing, finally slept around 12am, woke up at 0430. Had a slice of bread, milo & a big banana. Gave Chris morning call at 0500 & called him again at 0600 to make sure he didn't oversleep...took the first train with Aram & we met WJ at Jurong E.....hopefully my banana will last me until the run is over....

When we reached Harbourfront MRT, there was a hugh swarm of people there. But none of them were the ones we're supposed to meet. Just when I'm finally early, everyone else is late....Chris came then Karen & finally Bambi. There was a long (long, long) queue for the shuttle bus, so we ended up walking to Sentosa.

Tekko was caught in a mega jam & he didnt take part at all. Poor guy. He was so looking forward in running the Real Run before his op. While we were waiting for Chris to come back from his toilet break, we did some stretching. We ran with the 2nd group while Karen joined the

first. We lost Chris after about 3-4k. After we finished the sand part at 6k, Chris caught up with us. Good thing we were not bitching about him :p

Completed my 1st 10k run in 79 minutes. The feeling of completing a race feels great! Cheers to that great run, & many many more to come!
