A very good race - second competitive run after a bout of dengue/malaria? (God knows).

Had a complete rest (or rather forced to rest as work load and weather do not permit to train for a week!) after CICM Care run a fortnight ago. Did swimming almost every morning from Tuesday to Thursday. I did not have the confidence to have a good race, only hoping to complete the race in between an hour and an hour 5 minutes.

Started from the back as the road was quite 'narrow'. The slow start was a good warm up as there are two 'hills' to conquer.

It was a huge relief after the check point and began to run the usual race. Bad habit started to creep in with 2km to go. Took a walk for a few seconds before started to run again, at a slightly slower pace.

Luckily, that was the only stop other than water station.
