18k LSD Egate to Seagate

Mission accomplished!

Approx 18km LSD from E-gate to Seagate Makan Place.
530 am startup.
630 am rendezvous with run buddy at 7-Eleven. Haa, run buddy showed up this time.
Run starts, Galloway 7:1 run:walk ratio.
Run buddy goes race pace, I follow.
Cloudy day today, good, not too hot.
Follow normal route. Stop at QB Nasi Kandar, aiyoo run out of 100-Plus, so go for 1 bottle mineral water. Continue on.

Reached second Queensbay roundabout near Intel, time = 52mins 38.51 secs.

Continue on to Seagate Makan2 place right to the fisherman's sheds. Time = 1hr 7mins 34 sec.

U-turn back. Stopped by QB Nasi Kandar for another bottle of mineral water. By now, I was kaputed with run buddy's fast pace and fell back on 6:2 run ratio. Finally at Caltex go all out, and run buddy pulled away & disappeared from view, smoking me, another one bites the dust, potong sayur, whatever you want to call it.

Runs ends at E-gate at 2 hr 13 mins 48 sec. Approx 18k. Another 3k would be a half-marathon.

Cooldown walk around E-gate. Only now sun shines thru the clouds.

Pre-run weight 152.2, post run 150.4 after hydration. OK lor.

Next week will extend another 4 km, roughly to Batu Maung Seafood for total 22km LSD.

Now I'm still high with endorphins. Gagaga...
