15 km -- 12km road, 1km trail, 1km beach, 1km runway
completed in 01:34:50
i would say it's not worth the effort waking up so early in the morning for this run, seriously..
all the way to changi exhibition centre
with the road closure, the starting point was extremely inacessible for late-comers. joa and i had to walk more than 2km before reaching the start line even before the race started. in the end, poor gal had to start her 10km race late.
the trail was far too narrow, about 1 metre in width which has to accomodate thousand of runners
personally, the sand trail was simply detestable. it was way too narrow to allow so many people to run! besides with the tree roots, uneven ground, slower runners in front, it can turn out real exasperating.
conclusion? only take part in races based in the city next time.

Following 2 days of overtly sick, thursday and friday didn't help much in my recovery.
Thurs was packed with consultations from 8am to 3.30pm with an hr break in between. That was what I requested after I felt giddy after the non-stop explaination and analysis. first hand experience of consultation fatigue. the day didn't end there. straight away at 3.30pm was pw training, which didn't end till 630pm. due to my mc on wed, i had to make up for the night duty slot, so my day ended officially at 10PM! *sobz*
Fri was consultations 9am to 1.30pm with no break. dept meeting followed immediately after that. left school only at 4pm which gave me only 3hrs time before heading down to trader's for staff dinner. only slept at 1am that day..
With all these nonesense, i was worried that i would take longer than usual to fully recover. Thankfully, sat was more of a stay-in day for me to recuperate.
Went to IKEA in the late morning to get a set of bedsheet and quilt cover which I've always wanted to. this season's range seem so much nicer.. Then it was home slacking all the way till bee brought me to satay power again in the evening. ended the day with ice cream at serene centre with his classmates.
