today was the first time i fell out of a run =S siann. this morning on the way to NUS for RUNNUS i had a stomachache. it was qt bad cos it was like ongoing. i knew it wasnt just a case that could be solved by clearing my bowels and that the pain would be staying for some time. however, i still decided to start the run and hope for the best.as i started the run, i started to feel the movement in my intestines as expected and the urge to visit the toilet. i tahan-ed for a while until i was at PGPR and i thought to myself that if i dun go to the toilet now, there might no longer be a chance to do so once i leave the "sch compound"!
and luckily for me, it was the right decision. cos with my character, i would have most likely tried to go all the way but today i wasnt feeling so determined. so i went to the toilet in PGP and oh man, i had abt half an hour of a struggle and was sweating like a dog while sitting on the toilet bowl. =X haha but after that i felt better and decided i could no longer carry on, cos running will just cause further peristalsis that would hurt me more. a marshal helped me to call the organiser to check out the falling out procedure and apparently i could just leave. lol thus i took bus A1 back to the starting pt!
as u can see above, there is a finisher certificate, and i cannot have my name on this cos i didnt finish :(
its qt sian to sleep at 130am the day b4 and wake up b4 6am, travel all the way to sch and have a tummyache and suffer during a short 2km run then falling out!! mans... it was a unique experience though. dun think i have ever fallen out from a run b4.
hope i dun have to go through such trouble again! heard from my friends who completed the run that it was challenging, sad that i didnt have the chance to challenge and complete the run today. may i have another chance in the remaining two years to go for it again ba!
