This is the day... the ultimate challenge - to complete the 30km training run. Sound impossible. The adidias slogan
"Impossible is Nothing"
could probably sums it up in 3 words.
Albeit, we still have to face it... rather suffer now during training and gain something, than to wait till actual day and suffer, and may not get pass that thought ever again.
And so it is, after a gruelling 3 1/2 hours, we ran and walked the whole 30km. By the time we completed, our bodies are aching all over, especially the legs, with all the 3+hrs of pounding... but we did it. :)
The reward

The reward
Besides the usual post training breakfast session at the usual hawker centre, the highlight of the day would be the BBQ session at MW's place in the evening. It is a get-together in the name of rewarding ourselves for coming this far in the prep for the marathon.
All those in the running teams are invited. There were BBQ beef, BBQ Japanese shishamo, soba and lots and lots of wine... slurp slurp...
Thanks to the hosts for organising this get-together! MW and family. Thanks to all who came and made this evening a great evening to remember by!
Cheers everyone!
