Malakoff 26k pre-race jitters

After last Wednesday's run, my system went into defensive mode.
Thursday: lost the war to the invading germ army
Friday: recovered...
Saturday (today): Together with run buddy, went to the Youth Park to get the race vest, et al.
Paid rm40 registration fee, another rm10 for timing chip deposit.
Bib no B1240.
White vest with yellow side stripes. Dunno if gonna wear this.
Free powergel for 26k.
Bought two power bars and one power gel.
Met Eileen from KL who's gonna run the 6k.
Met a veteran 61 yr old uncle who ran a "rehearsal" 26k on the actual route in 3 hr 5 min (wow!). I'm gonna bite his dust tomorrow.
In run buddy's car, went thru the race route. The first 5k is hilly, gonna be a challenge. Afterwards would be "manageable".

So here is my race strategy.
1. Since just recover, no time goal
2. Start back of the pack
3. 7:1 Galloway. In no shape to run non-stop
4. 10 mins into run, have to find somewhere for fajr prayers
5. Only one cuppa re-water at each station.
6. Run my own race. Let run buddy run his.
7. Cruise on the downhills
8. Run last 2k full blast.

Ok that's all. Now to get some sleep.
