Event: City to Surf
 

Running race (CITY TO SURF) 1:18:20 [5] 14.0 km (5:36 / km)

I am pretty sure i had the worst before race incident. I payed 50cents to go to the toilet so i could go to the start quicker and then the first time i went in and the toilet disappeared into the wall, the second time it did it again and the lights started flashing, then the third time i went in and water sprayed out of the wall/floor and saturated me which meant i had to do the race with wet shoes.
However i got over that when we started. I was all good and then at the 5km mark my legs started hurting and then up heartbreak hill they hurt even more and then somehow i forgot about the pain but then in the very last km they started hurting again. My left foot was numb until like 4km's to go so that felt fairly odd too. Was happy happy with my overall time because i took like 15minutes off my time from last year :] so yea. My legs were quite stiff when we were walking around after the course and i have a feeling they will be sore tomorrow too.
My aim for next year is to get down near 70-75minutes. Can i do it? :P
