get REAL !
The 1st time was novelty, the 2nd round this time is familiarity... and I guess there wont be a 3rd time!
It's insane to wake up at 5+ to head to Changi Aviation Road for the crazy NB Real Run this year again!
6 of us signed up for it this year though eventually a dramatic twist brought only the 5 of us to the finishing line. Yes it's 15KM once again! Im surprised at myself for pressing on throughout and coming way below 2 hrs as compared to last year, though the adverse effects of that is the wear and tear of my knee cap till now =(
There are 3 parts to the REAL run. 1st 5KM is running on sandy trails, next 6KM on the hard concrete road, including a 400m run along the beach, which is the killer portion!
Still, its so satisfying to complete the REAL run that we treated ourselves to Crystal Jade at T2 after that, with the remaining afternoon concussed on my bed =)
Tired faces at 7am~
Medals this year =)
After 15km~
Fungus & SkinZ were there for REAL too~
I do feel fitter though =)
