Before this race i knew it was going to be tough race  for all the runners ,i dont know the course but what i have in my mine is to run 21k .
Got there on time with the  help of my friend , warm up,  there  where so many runners  here and there  . Yeah it was going to be a big race . report about 5min to the start   try to move up in front so that i wont be hold up in traffic and lose time.
Start the race at 7am  and i knew that i have to finish before 8.30am  to avoid the sun , as i guess i was in the crowd for the first kilometer ,  there where so many runners a head  of me and it was gonna be a hard work  to catch  them or even pass .  I lose  my position so many time  and i guess i was losing time too  , my body was ok and i feel good running cos i did a lots of training for 21k during the week .
At 10k i did 39 min  and at  11k i did 44.04min as i had little time to check on my watch   from here i knew that i got 10k more to go   so i say 40 min which will putme around 1hr 24 or 1hr 25min , got charge up and i couldnt count how many people i pass .I nearly got choke  by a power bar while trying  to take some luckly  there was a water station near by  so i had to drink some water  for relief . Climbing  the hill here and there was good  i didnt have much difficulty climbing them and running down with speed .
At 15k i made it 1 hr  for the first time  in a competion  i lose a little time in the remaining  6k to finish . at the end i had  to do one last sprint to pass this guy i was chasing for about 2km  it was nice as the crowd was cheering on  i  like it .
As this race is over now i have learn a lot and need to improve  on my time in the coming race in PJ half marathon .. hopefully i can run in  1hr 20 min ...
