My first Stanchart 10km marathon

Today, we participated at the annual Standard Chartered Bank marathon. Of course, we ran the 10km, not the full marathon. Sylvia, my hubby, cousins - Jacelyn and Terence and I went. It was our first time participating. The guys ran first at 7.30am, while ladies ran at 8.15am. Collection of the goodie bag prior to the event was a nightmare. Sylvia and I took half day leave and went to Singapore expo and queued for an hour before we got it. Total participants who took part were 50,000!! WOW!

The guys completed the race about an hour or so. The girls took longer - almost 2 hours. I did not expect that I can run non-stop for 4 hours. At the ECP, I stopped as the sun was too glaring. I walked till suntec's first drinking stop and ran again after drinking 100 plus. I stopped again at the F1 area... then I started running again at the Surpreme Court and dashed to the finishing line. Now my knees are in pain. Tomorrow, my muscles will ache... My cousins will be taking part in the 21km next year. I shall stick to 10km. hahaa. I am so glad that it is a public holiday on monday. Poor hubby, he has to work.
