42.195km... haha crazy attempt many will say... especially for 1 who've only did a 10k run and have no prior training wadsoever. However we did it my friends. An estimated of erm 10.025k run and 32.170 road march. haha

The timing that we've completed is nothing to brag about. However its the achievement that we've persevere through the whole journey. lolz but I think... we shall just stick to 10k for now haha.

a few things that we've derived and saw on the encouragement posters through the journey...
"We've paid $65 for the yaoxiu-ness"
" You'll only know the pain when you went through it"
"The pride you gain is worth the pain" - haha somehow I just ignore the word worth when I read the the poster... so it becomes "The pride you gain is the pain" lol selective reading. And during the last part, the pain is so tt bad that I doubt the words, but now as the pain subsidise... maybe..
"Its the Stand Chart Walkathon" I'm amaze at the no. of pple who're walking actually. lolz
"Perhaps after this, studying and others will not seems to be so hard" - haha.
Before the run start we told pple "we're going for the finisher tee, unless they change the design of the tee, its most prob our first and only..." about 30K it becomes "Even if they change the design we'll most prob not be coming..." and by the last part... "Pay me $1000 and I'll still consider" Haha. Ok lar... I think if we really train and perhaps run for free can consider lar lolz.

haha actually thinking back the whole journey other than the horrible pain waist downwards, its quite enjoyable with Juvin-IH & OH. ya anyway we're AHIHOH -pronounce as AIYOH! lolz

Through the journey I've went through up and down. The 35+ to 39K is the worst part I guess... All the U-turn loops, low morale, hot sun, tiredness, more pain etc. Not sure if I'm grumpy or having the 'sha-qi' at that time haha. Sorry to my supporter and supportee if I did. =X lol

The after effect was... RAR! horrible. Especially after a sleep. As I stand, feet and knee doesn't seems to be able to hold me up. Everywhere seems to hurt. Curse and swear with every movement even when lying or sitting.

Well after resting one entire day at home after cancelling a job interview, dinner with sch friends, rejecting aunty tan to go out (sorry ar =X), the aching seems to get better... hopefully can walk at a faster speed tomorrow... limping at a horrible slow speed... takes more than a minute to get myself from my room to the kitchen =X Must applaud Candy to be able to go out straight after the run/walk and still can go out today, with 1 camp and another to come. haha. I told someone on msn... 3 of us go together... 1 come back still can go out, I shack, the other one almost dead liao haha. the last one is Aunty Toh. haha. Her joints and all are killing her... and she stay in bed till today late afternoon! sw lol

Last but not least... Thanks Aunty Tan and Toh for the 42.195km =)
Thanks Candy for the support of "you're doing great lol", for waiting for me during the run and walking with us when you can actually still run. (at a good pace and not at the pace of our 'pacer' =P )
Thanks XT for bearing with us the night before the race haha. Though I dun understand... why issit my fault when you can't sleep! Bleah! haha.

Thanks for being my friend... =)
