Boon sucks @ Marathon

Yeah. The Verdict is out, and I sucks @ marathon. =(

My Timing is 5hr 24mins.

My training-mates' timing are 40-70mins better than mine.

.

.

.

This is my timing:

First 21km: Less than 2hrs

Next 15km: 2hr ++

Last 6km: 1hr ++

.

.

.

Jon was saying that we only trained up to 30km, and the rest is in the mind.

During the run, I know that my condition was not as good as 2 or 3 weeks back while i was training. While I believe that my flu & sore throat do plays a part, but the gap between my training mates and myself is abit too big.

.

.

.

However, there are some experiences that I would remember for a some time:

- the embrassment of jogging and realising that the walkers were walking at the same pace as you

(As though I was literally jogging on the spot.)

.

- even while i was walking, other walkers just walked pass me

(My long legs were useless)

.

- the pain of not able to control your urinary track

(No Kidding. I had to walk SLOWLY as I could not control it. I had to go to toilet whenever there was an opportunity. At least, I now i could relate those old folks with urine problems. BTW, I am fine now. thankfully!)

.

anyway, my flu & phlegm is back again.

Hopefully, i could recover in time for my backpacking trip to Burma in 5 days time!!!

woohoo.... =)
