The SCSM experienc
4th yr participation
and the 2nd full marathon for me
the night before
we were busy preparing ourselves mentally
as well as
doing trivial but impt stuff
putting bib on our 战衣
and not forgetting our 战鞋
just before we doze off to lala land
i told ivy
"Why not we just go eat Mac Breakfast tmr?"
....
The next morning in the wee hours
we were already up
carbo loading and stretching
i asked ivy again
"Why are we signing up to torture ourselves?"
ivy replied
"Next yr, you will stand at the same position, asking me the same qn!"
haha
We were slightly late
and even before we crossed the start line
the black gang aka the top runners are already U- turning back
!!!
