The day started out with a morning run at our usual park with Mr Wan and crew. Kunun-kunun nak warm-up untuk race malam. Berlari-lari kami berlari, semangat giler ni, yelah dah lama tak turun training so panic ar masing-masing. Takut malam nanti langsung kaki tak boleh nak angkat. Niat di hati nak lari 4k (aishh cukuplah tu karang tak bertenaga pulak) sekali just before loop ke Taman Rusa, Mr Wan mencelah "girls, usually if the race is on the next morning, u can still have a short run today, but if the race is tonite, it's not necessarily to run, afraid that you will not get enough time to recover". beddebush, dan-dan tu jugak terus berhenti berlari dan berjalan menikmati keindahan taman hahaha.
Kejadian selepas Lake Garden was chaotic. Had our breakfast at Hartamas, went back home, out again to KL& PJ and by the time we reached home sudah capek bangat tapi dapatlah rehat sekejap pastu terus bersiap ke Putrajaya. It was raining heavily in KL so kenalah keluar awal sikit to avoid traffic madness. Aiyooyooo, bila hujan ni dah boleh bayangkan 'keazaban' nak lari malam ni. All the best je lah!
Amazingly, sampai Putrajaya tak hujan langsung cuma mendung sikit. Syukur, at least takdelah panas sangat. Memandangkan pagi tadi dah warm-up, kami memang malas nak warm-up lagi. hehehe. Biasalah, on every event kami mesti berdiri dekat depan-depan. yelah, confirm slow, kalau tunggu jauh nun di belakang confirm lagi lambat sampai hehehe. We were flagged off at 8pm sharp, all at the same time! Luckily i did browse the Shape web before the race because siapa yang tak tengok web, kat receipt depa habaq start 8.20pm. Fuhhh, 20mins tu babe, kalau pro dah nak dekat sampai dah. Oh lupa pulak, ini first time kami compete dalam 'Competetive Category', sebelum ni fun run je. Bagus-bagus ada improvement.
I'm doing well for the first 5k. I even survived the hills, some even refer it as "syaitoon hills" hehe but after 7k, my feet were really starting to tire. My calves and soles were aching, and I know I had to slow down to reduce the pain. There goes my dream to be the first 75 to arrive and grab the limited finisher medal sob sob. Miss E certainly ahead of me as i can't see a glimpse of her since we started. Eh ke dia tak larat nak lari, so naik van balik? haha melawak jer. Good for her, if not jadi bahan tak sudahlah gamaknya. Throughout the race, the weather was really nice and breezy, nothing like Putrajaya Night Race or ENR. There were adequate water stations at every 3km but hurmmm totally unprepared and we have to wait just to get the cup filled with H2O. Again, there goes a few minutes of my precious time.
Back to my run, thank God i was able to kept up my steady-slow pace till the end. Cuma lagi enak kalau takde detour at the very last 2km. Serius saiko tahap gaban bila dah letih giler, boleh nampak garisan penamat, boleh dengar orang bersorak sekali kena pusing untuk habiskan larian. Damn, jiwa kacau betul. But anyway, officially i finished the 12.3k race in 1:24:24 and ranked 119/679. Oh ye, congratulations to Miss E sebab berjaya menamatkan larian dalam 1:21:53. Overall, kecewalah jugak tak dapat medal tapi we had lot of fun especially dapat bag yang sweet itu. Till my next post, toodles!
