20 km run at East Coast Park 24 March 2013

Start the run at 6.11 am, started very slowly, 1st km covered in 6min11sec. First 20km run since 3 Feb 2013, feeling rather apprehensive about how the run will progress. Reached 2 km in 12min25sec, time for the km in 6min7sec. Covered the 3rd km in about the same time, 6min8sec. It was a very casual 1st 10 km,  time was about 1 hr 1min 12sec. Start to speed up a little and covers the next lm in 5min40sec, followed by the next km in 5min39sec. At this 12 km mark, I was feeling just fine, but just did not run fast enough. The 12-13km was covered in 5min34sec, followed by the next km in 5min30sec, which will be my fastest km so far. Did try to push a little bit more but the lack of training start to be evidence, just could get any faster. Covered the 14-15 km in 5min43sec, just tried to not ow down by too much, covering the next km in 5min 48sec. By the 17km, body temperature was getting a little too high, so had to take water break to lower the body temperature. As a result of the water break, the 17-18km was covered in more than 6min. I know the end was need but just could not get much faster
and eventually finished the run in 1hr56min57sec.
