Before the Race:
Since last farewell run with michael_wilson did a very good half marathon, then I rarely take part in half marathon race. Mainly because I often have the bad habit of walking, not dare to take part in long distance race, to avoid disappointment.
Before the race, I set my target time between 01:40:00-01:45:00. Hopefully don’t run too fast in the first 10km, want to keep in 50min or so. The most important thing is to save energy for the second half, don’t walk is good enough.
During the Race:
I start slow when the race begin. No distance marker along the route, I can’t control my pace.
First u-turn nearby the LDP bridge, I began to speeds up impatiently. Once I see familiar face, I will try to cross him/her.
I saw Stanley Cheong and nayiq in front of me at the second u-turn nearby the Subang airport, I know I ran too fast, but I want to cross them badly.
Finally I reach the last water station nearby 16km, I start to slow down. The sun is very hot, I run slow hardly.
I save energy until I enter the stadium, do a little bit sprint at the last 300m till the finishing line, the watch shows 01:38:05.
After the Race:
After the race, I try to confirm the distance, most people said was under distance 300m-400m. I think if no under distance, my time will be 01:40:04, consider satisfied.
