First race for the year. Took part in 12km as the 21km slot was full.

I'm taking part in the race after lapse of 3 years.

I was suppose to reach the location around 5.55 or 6am, but only manage to reach there at 6.20, as I missed the turning. reached the place and did so e light stretching.

Luckily I manage to be in the 2nd row at the starting lane.

The race started on time, and I made a steady start. The groups got stretched, as the km2 had steep hill. Thereafter, the route was mostly flat, with 3 or 4 light slopes.

Manage to get 14th place with timing of 59.15. Happy with the timing as I manage to do below 5 minutes pace.

Many good runners. Thus, it was a fast paced race with minor slopes.

I didn't allow anyone t overtake me after km 2. The pack in-front of me gone missing after the 21km joined us.

The water stations were adequate, I could see of them at least. The signboards were adequate although there were no distance markers. This is the 1st time I had roticanai (crispy ones) after the race.

I was also trying out my new running suit Xstep.
