Woke up on event morning a little sore because I’ve gone a little too hard on the push ups few days ago and clocked a game of casual tennis the day before, resulting in abrasion to the toe (ouch!). But you’ll never know, sometimes better times are clocked when you’re feeling tired at the start but it just melts away as the race goes on so I still have to try my best.

The 2009 event is the 1st time a full marathon distance has been included and thus an ever increasing number of participants this year at ~38,000+. Besides 42.195km, there is a choice of the half marathon(HM), 12km run, 12km walk, 11km wheelchair and 4km run/walk.
