Actually I went there to do de 84k ... but wasn't in the mood of running ..so just ran de 21k...
Took de night..senandung malam ..on the 28th... reached Tanjung Pagar at about 8.30..Hi Mr Tey......took a cab to Redhill Close.. met up with Javier, Dariana N Darien..( Dariana's bro)... 5.00 pm.. we left...took the MRT...got down at Tempines St...Collected the Book on Lee Kuan Yew from the Popular Bookstore and got some medicine from the Guardian as Dariana wasn't feelin good..Took a cab to Pasir Ris..which was a ST away to board the shuttle bus to Changi Aviation Park....But The queue was extremely long.......so just ask the cabbie to drive us straight to de Park.....The crowd was huge...as de 10k and de team event.. started earlier...met Joyce N Ijam..Hi... Warmed up....!!!
9.00 pm.. Honk...Blared..De 21k journey begins... ran along the airport ... filled with loud noise of the planes taking off and landing...About 6,000 runners joined me in de journey...didn't really enjoy de run as i had this sudden lost of excitement .... lost the mood of running... so just ran to finish..Up to km 15k.. my pacing was good...half way thru met Abang...manage to pose for a pic...10q...heel pain started.. stopped a while....n ran....stop n ran....till de end... finished in about 1: 59: 25... Javier was ahead of me .. finished in 1:56:00...it's 11.00 pm...Rushed back to the Shuttle bus pick up center...have to rush cos the last MRT is at 12.00 am ... de queue was long... can we make it....????...
After a while..manage to hop into a bus .... it was 11.25am... shoudn't be a prob to reach Pasir Ris by 12.am.... but.. due to the jam.. missed the last MRT by few seconds...took a bus...which can get us near to Redhill so that the cab fare would be cheaper... Bus NO 21...up to St Micheal...but too many stops.. One N Half hrs in the bus...Passed thru Tempines,Bedok,Geylang..(happenin),..Little India...N St Micheal. Took a cab to Redhill... Hungry like a wolf .. had A bowl of fishball Noodles...back home.. shower.. N bzzzzzzzzzzzzz.... !!!What a day....!!!
