I did a fantastic job! This route could be consider my "home ground", I trained here every week including weekdays. I know and very familiar of every stretch and every corner. I had kept a good pace for the first 20K, just gotta do more longer LSDs so that I can also keep the pace for the 3rd 10K in the future. When going down the mini wall, thought of want to turbo to buy some time, but got side stitch... I still need to work more for my breathing. When coming down the mini wall, saw the water station about few ten meters away. So I slowed down to walking in order to consume the powerbar gel, plus hoping to subside the side stitch. This is the only place I walked, only few ten meters... I ran the whole course! Looking at the time after 24km, there was enough time to meet my target, so I just slow jogged after that to make sure I completed the course. Now I had more confidence to do longer LSD! (I actually could not believe I could achieve average pace below 7min/km for 30km!)
