Started at Sentosa Island, run around the Island for first 9km before return to Singapore Island. A bit hilly compare with previous year's route.
Completed my first 10km with 48 min++, I am worried that sub 1:45 might not abe to achieve, compare with last year's 47 min for 10km.
I try to ahead the 1:45 Pacer group from starting, when reached the u-turn at about 11km on Telok Blangah Road, they were about 200 meter behind of me. Keep my pace and run along Ayer Rajah Expressway, East Coast Expressway, only few runners within my vision and most of us run with smillar pace, hard to overtook each other.
Start to overtook few runners when reached the flyover at 17.8km, across Marina Bay, and run downhill to Republic Blvd towards Singapore Flyer side and turn right to Raffles Ave, 2 km to go, Saw a lot of 10km runners in reverse direction, they all just stsrted 20 min ago. Pass by Esplanade and turn left into Esplanade Drive, many photographer there but can't see Tey yet.
Turn in to Fullerton Road, High Street and St. Andrews Road, a timing mat is place about 100 m away from the finishing arc, saw Tey on the right.
