Its amazing how we have forgotten the pain that we went through. Barely a year ago I made a maiden journey to run the Northface 100 in Singapore for a 50km trail run. At that time, 50km seemed like a reasonable distance especially after you had done countless marathon and a few months earlier completed an 84km ultra marathon.
But it was not an easy journey. It was memorable though but needless to say, I suffered tremendously. The toughest race I've done by far. Even my 100km stunt did not come close.
I'm taking the learnings from last year and hopefully this time, I will have a better race. Now that Nik will not be running with me.
1. Full breakfast on race morning
2. Maintain energy throughout by refueling
3. Walk uphill and run the downhills
4. Hydrate often
5. Small steps, fast cadence
6. Focus on finishing even when I'm in doubt
All the best to all of us. See you on race day!
