Yes! Beat the Sunrise! When walking back, it was still dark!

The Sun was abt to rise! Beautiful!!

Decent timing too! Achieved the timing i set for myself beginning of the year when I was at peak w running, amazing how the mind can work!

Since lack of training, I had a strategy to make sure I can complete, I was starting to doubt whether I can carry out as planned but after 20km, I told myself "I CAN DO IT! Yay!

Strategy as follows: w 2 packets of Power Gel tugged inside my shorts!

-20km (continuous running), consume half power gel at 20km, 

-22km, stretching + U-turn point

(a guy tapped my shoulder and ask: "Erm.... dun mind, can I borrow your pacing for the next 18km?") After warning him that my pacing is rather slow n I will be stopping every 4km to do stretching, we cont. tog.

-26km (consumer half power gel), stretching every 4km. (amazingly I could still run!!?! Was it the power of PowerGel?)

-30km (consumer half power gel), stretching.  (from this pt on, I was physically rather tired liao!)

-The it became brisk walk 2km, jog 2km till end... actually, I mus say that the guy (DaveChoo) helped me, else I would have given up n walk till 42km... but he commented I walk rather fast! wuahaahh! make up for the lost time mah! 

-39.8km. I made a call to Starry n BroXiong. Tell them I am at near 40km mark & will be coming back soon! ETA 5.30am to 5.45am!

-40km Started jogging back again, last cycle liao! Tahan all the way! & Mr.DaveChoo refused to go ahead w/o me 1st & insisted to cross the finish line tog!

-42km Saw the FINISH pt right in front! Dash/Last Burst ALL THE WAY!!! I heard BroXiong, Starry and Sui shouted for me when I dashed past them towards the end! YES! Carried out my plans & it worked!

I forgot to stop my watch but when I rembed, it showed me 5h32m.
Actually Net Chip timing came out to be 5h30mins3sec! Way too cool! Yes, I made it in 1 piece! 

Happy.... I am a very happy woman...

thank you Mr.DaveChoo for pacing me!
