after 2 years, i can put my demons to rest

completed the spore marathon this morning.
as i crossed the finish line, i thought about the time 2 years ago when i injured myself training for the same event. I felt like shit then, and i promised myself that i'd come back and run it again someday.
crossing that finish line today was SWEEEEET AS!

didnt do too good timing wise tho.... 4hrs 6mins.
Its about 20 mins faster than my previous marathon, but i still wanted to do better. Thought that i could've gone below 4hrs. oh well...that for my next marathon. hahaha. dunno when that'll be. in so much pain now that i cant think about doing another one for a while.

the weather today was great tho. NO direct sun. overcast sky. perfect. i shudder to think what my timing wouldve been had the sun been out in full force. bottom line....spore weather was not meant for running marathons. for suntanning maybe, for drying clothes fast maybe.....but for marathons, NO!

satiish and i went to BK after the run and whacked two burgers (one with meal). felt like the ending scene in harold and kumar (after all, we WERE two chinese and indian dudes eating fast food in a shag state. haha). knees killing me now. hopefully no long term damage. we'll see.... will prob go for a recovery run on wed.

2 more days....NEED PASTA

getting excited...and worried... marathon's this sunday!
woke up early this morning and went for an easy 7km. i left the house at 7.30am, and it was already blaaaaaardy HOT. definitely need to wear shades on sunday.

started my pasta eating (or gorging) yesterday nite. gonna eat pasta for every meal (excluding breakfast) till sunday. Tmr satiish and i will be going to pastamania in the afternoon, then ordering in pizza at nite! woohoo! hopefully we can get it all out of our system on sunday morning (ie: a good morning shit.) haha.

going to NUS later to see suresh's shag pad...erm...hostel.

i seem to be sleeping a lot lately. had a 3 hr nap yest afternoon, and still slept by 12am. not good. must force myslef to sleep less.

results in 8 days.
erk....
