SHAPE RUN 2006 I survived! Barely actually. With the lack in preparing for the run, coupled with a few muscle strains, I managed to complete the 10km run. The experience was thrilling and amazing. The sense achievement was great, I would have never imagined to clear that 10km mark.
Unfortunate thing was that I walked a fair bit in the race, the heat was too much, plus I had blisters and a sore left calve. But I did tell myself, no matter what, at the 6km mark I have to run all the way back and I did. My timing was acceptable; wasn't expecting too much of it. But I definately would want to beat my timing at the upcoming Standard Chartered Run.
I must say there are alot of healthy and fit ladies out there. Such overwhelming response and there were a few who leisurely walked the entire stretch. Also, a big shout out to all the older ladies, you women are amazing!
Now, my entire body is aching but I think it's worth it. More 10 kms to come!!
