Melbourne Marathon 2007

It was a strange feeling heading into the Big Day on Oct 7. I haven't trained for 2 weeks prior to the event due to the weather and having to rush assignments, and my sub-48min target appears to be just a dream. Moreover, with the upcoming exams at the back of my mind, I just wanted to get this run over and done with.

With almost 5000 people taking part in the 10km run, it wasn't easy to navigate through the 'traffic', especially when I started the run from the back of the crowd. But -f.l.y- I did. Net Time of 46:27.. New Personal Best and top 17%..

My 'Gun Time' of 49:10, which starts upon commencement of race, rather than the moment runner passes the gantry at the start.
