Anyway, I arrived way too early and decided to park myself next to a trash can at the 29km point and kept a lookout for my friend. Two hours is a long time for one to wait, so I started taking photos of people running by.
One runner handed me a sign which says "You can do it!" and I became part of the cheering squad. Maybe because I was dressed in the official colour, runners came up to me asking about bananas and ointment.
After a long wait, I saw two runners waving happily at me. Finally best friend and her hubby came into view. After giving them fresh towel to clean up, they went on to tackle the final 13km while I headed home.
I took lots of photos at the 29km mark (Fort Road carpark), so if you're a runner, you might want to look for your photo here.

Oh, you are such a good friend to go support your friends! ;) Sigh, but the recent new of a 22 yr young man's passing at the Standchart Marathon, made me try sad.
Wen-ai - Indeed. Very sad to see such things happen at races.
I ran! 5km.. and I ran and walked.. but it was inspiring and next year, I'd do a 10km.. :)
OKC - Well done! It can be addictive I tell ya.
