Yellow Ribbon run

1 Sep yellow ribbon run would be my last marathon.

Things were off from the start, J and I were late. J even stayed at my place the night before. The taxi dropped us off 2km away from the venue. By the time we near the starting point, the 10km race already started. We had no choice as we were going in opposite direction. So we just joined in and ran.

The run was quite challenging as it was uphill and downhill most of the time. I only ran 6km before I had to walk. Prior to this, I didn't train because was down with a bad cough. Nevertheless I tried my best. The day was hot, and I was so tired, thirsty at the end. Couldn't wait to get home and bathe.

I told J that this would be the last. I would continue to jog but not participate in marathon. Knees not good, body was aching. Didn't sleep at all so the whole sunday was spent napping. Had a simple lunch comprising of 2 stalks of soba. Dinner was 1 bar of chocolate.

Luckily the body ache went away, only left the pain in my thighs.

Next Sunday would be my getting trip. Looking forward to it, zero expectation.
