Notes
(Written > 1 year after the event)
Training for this first race was interupted by a bout of pneumonia - which led to 1 month of no running at all. Was in worse shape after that month than I was beforehand.
Parents had came over for a visit and watched me race. Didn't see the 2 or 3km signs, so was pretty disheartened up until I saw 4km as I felt I was never going to finish if I was in so tired and I hadn't yet passed 2km. Ah the days of pre-garmin.
Picked up the pace towards the end so that I could sprint at the end. Was pretty light-headed at the finish line. Beat my goal of 1 hour, yay!
