The Race Is Over

May 20, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Well, it’s a HOT day. The race started about 0730hrs and ended about an hour later. Cat finished the race in 49mins, slightly slower than anticipated but still within the initial goal. Can’t make it to the top 10, ended in somewhere between 20 to 30 as there are no official number and ranking given by the marshal at the end of the race. Will try to post some photos later, till then.

The Marathon World Record was set in Berlin 2007 by Haile Gebrselassie. He finished the marathon race in 2hr 4min 26sec. This is something impossible to most but attainable to some.
