Ultra at the Spur of a Moment

"Why did I sign up for it?" Woke up at 5am and that was my first thought. Within the last 18 hours, i had signed myself up for an ultra at Bedok Reservoir. My recent highest mileage was 13km and last marathon in November. Perhaps I am inspired by a current read written by an ultra marathoner. Or maybe I just wanna drag myself of comfort zone and shock, surprise my body, mind..and see how far my mind can take my body. Whatever the reason was, I had to get out of bed..first :p 530am : Left home as per scheduled 540am : Argh. I forgot my breakfast at home! No time to turn back 605am : The bus finally came. 630am : I had planned to reach start point to make payment & collect my race bib but here I am, at McD Tampines, queuing for brekkie 640am : Thank God a taxi took me! Ate my wrap while changing into my shoes. Before I slighted, cabbie uncle wished me a good day and may I enjoy the race. When I was done, I realize this is what I miss. Everyone has their own forte and mine is hanging on when most have dropped out of the race.
