Bib: 1226
Distance: 24.49 km (by Garmin FR405)
Timing: 2'11:47 (Gun Time) /2'11:32 (Chip Time)
Average Pace: 5:23 per km
Rank: 55th
Not well prepared and knee pain, aim to do 2:20 initially, with slightly over distance like 2010, but end up with under distance this year.
Glad this year flag off at 5:30am, an hour earlier compare with previous year.
Started the multiple rolling hills after 4km until 20km, really suffer especially during down hill, knee pain after 14km onwards, sometimes have to run with one and half legs, not both legs.
Drink stations every 3.5km, mostly served water, only few isotonics drink after 13km, better than nothing.
Felt happy that I can crossed finishing line with sub 2:15, better than my expectation, but slightly under distance.
