Along the way in the hotel van, we joked about running pass the hotel twice during the run and how much each of us just wished to turn into the hotel. Ha .. :)
Back at the hotel, we quickly washed and changed up. All of us were hungry. We need to eat to reload after the marathon. At this moment, calling for room service was the only choice we had. Same as our lunch time, the food took a long time to arrive. It came at around 0230Hr. I had the seafood fried rice again. Yum Yum .. !! .. :)
We turned in soon after finishing out meals. ZZZzzzz ..
Breakfast was at 0930Hr.
By the pool side.
We planned to check out after noon time and head towards KL since our flight back to Singapore was at 2050Hr. Was planning to go soak myself in the pool to let the cold water help my muscles contract to aid recovery. In the end landed up sleeping in the hotel room. Ha .. :)
We decided to take the train to KL. The hotel will send us to the train station.
Waiting for the hotel transport to arrive.
We ran past here last night. Note the little amount of shade the trees were providing.
The stretch of road where we could see Seri Saujana Bridge. Its in the background.
Ran through this junction too.
At Putrajaya Sentral train station.
Dont do this next time. Damn dangerous.
Upon reaching the destination, we had to press the button for the door to open. Saving electricity.
Once we reached our stop KL Sentral, we switched to the monorail and headed to Times Square at Imbi.
At KL Sentral monorail station.
We had our lunch at the food court at Times Square. Walked around Times Square. Was wishing to have a foot massage but could not due to time constraint.
In the evening, we returned back to KL Sentral to take the AirAsia bus service to KLIA.
Inside the bus.
It was a half hourly bus service. We took the 1700Hr bus. The journey took us around 1 hr.
Had some snacks at Old Town Cafe. This is the Omega Soft Boiled Egg on Toast.
We had another snack at another fast food outlet after this. Forgot what was the name of the outlet. Chatted on running, shoes and other matters also related to running.
Checked in and proceeded to the waiting gate.
We were lucky as right after we boarded the plane it started raining.
A blurred shot as the plane was descending towards Singapore.
This was a run where I was not prepared both physically and mentally. Need to take this as a lesson to always take on a full marathon seriously. But I did manage to pinpoint another weakness of mine. I could not maintain after 30km. Something which I began to notice since PNM.
I need to train up. I need to be able to maintain my pace. Not only maintain my pace, but also to maintain it long enough. Ed gave me some advise on how to improve. I need to look into revising my training runs.
Next full marathon: adidas Sundown Marathon 2010.
