Excited and scared, that was the feeling that I felt before the run. UP run was my first 12K with an up hill and down hill route. Very exciting huh?! I was excited thinking that I'm moving up to the next category but at the same time scared because I'm not yet sure if my body and hamstrings can take it. My mind said go but my body said I don't know.hahaha I did carbo loading 3 days before the run. On the day of the run, I was so excited seeing my friends and coaches from FITFIL getting ready, doing the warm up and chatting with each other. Run started 5:30AM, from UP to Convergy's banawa, turning point, then on our way to Marco Polo, that was the part were I really needed to walk since it's up hill. When I approached the turning point going back to UP, I grabbed the opportunity to do a sprint since it was a down hill and I needed to cope up with my PR. I was so tired, exhausted and hungry but I did it! Finished it in 1:29min. It was indeed a great experience.
