came back within projected timing. not a fantastic one but e reasonable one.
haha it's a timing none ard me would believe.
didn't even intent to wake up and run.. but no choice friend waiting downstairs already =\
so as usual 3 of us aloy, yankai and me met up for e run. e prolonged drizzle yesterday really did some heavy damage to the fields of padang. it had become a giant mud pool, shoes were muddy even before the run. i never like singapore runs..
99.999% is over-crowded unless you're standing in front or run darn fast, the chances of you getting stuck in mid pack is confirm guaranteed.
there's a change of route this year, we turn off earlier before the lao pa sa junction, up Benjamin shears, a loop ard ECP, then a present from our very own combat engineers.(combat engineer trail) which i shall not comment on it..after that comes the marina barrage which is quite a sweet spot =). loop around marine south(which all the steamboat is no longer there) and final stretch back to padang.
as usual saw lots of people along the way had fun catching up with their lifes cuz normally we dun meet up.

all done after e run we decide to go collect our nike race pack which was a totally wrong choice. e que start central.. snaked all e way back to liang court. this had to be the longest goodie bag collection any of us ever had.
so we decided to go back and collect tml instead in view of we're late for lunch gathering.

Had lunch at shokudo(raffles) with e ajax gang.celebrated aloy and my bday at ben's and jerry.
me and aloy with our pint of B&J

here's a few shots of yesterday fireworks.
had to sit there since 7 in e drizzle. after e drizzle lifted for a few mins during the show.. then it came back somewhere in the middle of e show! argH!!
