Official Time: 2:16:12
My time (got to the start 5 mins post start time): approx 2:10:30
Commentary: Slow and steady till the turn (little more than 11.4). 11. 4 time: 1:12:12. Just about 9 km/h. Left calf started cramping at the Haji Ali junction on the way back. Chocolates were a good idea.
Sudden burst of energy on Peddar Road. Think I upped the pace a bit. AV was struggling by here and needed a bit of coaxing to keep going. AV gave up and asked me to go on at km 17 (Charni Road station). Kept a steady pace till km 19 when rigor mortis set in. Kicked to try and get the 2:10 time. Last 2 km in 10 mins. Just missed the 2:10 time, but then I didn't train either.
Best attempt at a 'sprint' on the last stretch...was more like a desperate attempt at a quick jog!
Jost got up from a snooze. Shins and ankles and feet are killing me - probably from the pounding on the tar. No muscular pain (yet).
This was something to do. Next on the list - the Full in 2 years time, the Half in a sub 1:50 time next year...
