One day.Ten kilometres.
One million runners.
Finally, the long awaited 31.08.08 has came.
Sadly, I happened to fall sick on the day itself. So much so for preparing for the race all these while.
We tied our shoes with championchip (for the official timing) at Esplanade while eating banana/energy bar for instant energy boost before depositing our bags.
Before the race.
The wrist tags that we have to wear, green for the race itself, brown for the after-run concert.
Many people in red. And many are eye candies, including the race marshals - hunks & cute girls alike, haha.
After the race.
There's a part of the route where we have to run between pubs at Boat Quay, and the service staffs were cheering us on. There's even a chef whom distributed sliced watermelon to us & another fanning the runners, lol.
There were some concerts along the route but I guess everyone just wanted to run, didn't really listen to them. The sceneries were great too, wasn't feeling too well to run, so I did run-walk-run-walk & managed to enjoy the sceneries. Can't run at certain areas anyway due to serious human congestion.
With our Finisher Bracelet.
Didn't stay back for the after-run concert. Parted ways with BB & Wanlu after that & had dinner with Mz at Marina Square, MOF.
We very ke lian lah, still have to look at the menu carefully & calculate the total cost of food that we will be ordering using the handphone calculator cos we brought little cash to the race. Heng still can afford a dessert to share, lol.
