Girlie runs Warsaw

Warsaw if gorgeous! Though, I'm still having a VERY bad case of jet lag - Day 3 and I am still up throughout the night. I am drinking 4 expressos every 4-5 hours just to get through the day, and at 5 zl each, I am spending a fortune! UGH!

I am not sure if some of you have had a chance to look at my results. Well, I definitely had a 1.3 of a marathon in me, unfortunately I entered the Full.

Interestingly, the race started out very well, too well in fact, given I had a whopping total of 5 hours of 'sleep' over the 2 days before the race. The first few Ks felt really good I thought maybe I can actually have a pleasant experience - hahaha, very naive thinking! 10K - 55 mins, 21K - 1:55, 30K - 2:51 and then boom, without any warning everything crashed to a halt! Seriously, if I didn't see someone with the medal at the 38K mark, I would have hailed a cab to take me back to the hotel. Managed to stagger to the finish in 4:14:03! The medal is one of the nicest that I have, I think, though not the most significant.

Will let you know how Berlin goes.
