Very good timing despite Vomiting 3 x times !

Personally when I ran HM. I never feel the need of consuming any energy gel. Just make sure I eat enough 2 hours before my run.

Gels are dependent actually. Not really a must. But I do find gels give me a jolt of energy when I consume it. So when I run at certain pace then I will consume gels.

Jurong Safra female fast meh? Hahaha. I know they always train on Tuesday evening.

Most of the time .they are doing interval training.

Saw a few times where some ladies from their group doing own solo run. I was running at 5:25mins/km pace and I couldn't match her pace .. definitely it is fast for me .

Last time neo jieshi also part of the Safra running group there

I nearly fainted at the queue zone...really cluster and no ventilation.

I remember last year was really efficient

Seen some of the photos at the queue zone after the finishing line. Quite scary..someone might actually die from it

 

[sph777]

Yeah. At 11km,I was still hopeful but 12km onwards, the path was too narrow to cut already. Oh well.

Good luck later!

Yeah, this year route diff due to no Sheares. Thanks!

Why overtake? Run behind them more fun

probably view not nice

Ok guys,see you later from Pen F again. Got free bib to run lmao.

Let’s see if 3.30 is possible from Pen F. 5 mins/km pace should be doable despite my lack of training for FM

Haha, got many others also doing same combo also. The guy I took over from, he got injured from his 21km.

Experience my virgin marathon. 3.30 upper limit , 4 lower limit.

Yeah but I think Shaun Goh is not a marathon guy but he can easily do sub 3 or better if he want to la haha.

I set a very modest target already and it’s the dreaded Pen F again. Just hope today will be better

Flag off is at 4.30am So dumb question. What time reach to clear security? I live like 5mins away and wife has agreed to drop me off. shxx... totally lost now
suppose to do a long run 25-27k tomorrow anyway.. so will treat it as such... now what pace... or should I adopt a just finish in one piece mentality

Looking at your HM timing, it should be doable. But you are carrying some fatigue from today’s run

Quite fast to clear security. D won’t flag off at 4.30. If you want to start at the front of the Pen,then need camp early Loh. Think 4 am pen open.

Not the best person to advise since I don't do marathons. But for a sudden event, I'd just finish and enjoy the moment. Fast timing is a bonus.

All the best to you guys!

Virgin race. Take it as LSD but with drink stations. Remember around 34km aid station to jam as much gels as you can in your pocket as freebies for future use.
