| Dear all runners, Good to hear every one can finished the race without injure. Contractions Vincent made a NEW RECORD compare with previous year. Naoko also, finished the FULL Marathon in 4hr 48mins. Myself finished the 10-KM Marathon in 1hr 5mins. The 10-KM race started off at 7:05 a.m. I was among the middle, a bit of a tight squeeze for the first 3km.
The western tunnel is the longest I've ever run in - and also the most anticipated. Many friends have warned me about it. It was really windy and cold inside, where I constantly tried to get myself shielded from the runners before me. It felt like a long time before I saw the light at end of tunnel, literally! It was not as steep as I had expected, but the undulation and few slopes on subsequent highways were tough. I will run again, definitely run the Half Marathon before I conquer break my own personal best (finished in 50-55mins)!
Keep our normal practice! Cheers, AlexMok | | |
| Dear ALL, It's race day this Sunday!!! I am sure we had more than enough practices in the last few months to get through the race. Just a few tips for all the 10K first timers: - arrive at least half an hour before the race to drop off your belongings - visit the washroom - head to the starting line right away to avoid the crowd and start stretching and warm-up - expect to have a tough time half way thru the West Harbour Tunnel since it's an gentle incline afterwards - be prepared for all the uphill climbs after the tunnel from Sheung Wan to Admiralty - when you are close to the finish line, look for a camera man, wave your hands with a big smile Naoko, I'll see you when on my way back! I am starting at 6:10am, so I probably won't see you guys on that day. But have fun, take care during the race, and look forward to hearing a record time from all of you! | | |
