Salomon X-Trail Run 2011
20 Nov 2011 (my first trail running experience)

Despite my swollen toes,
I was able to complete the race without slipping into the mud-riddled trails of Tampines Mountain Bike Park and Trail. The entire race was tough but I’ve to say, it was very exciting. Trail route consisted of uphill, stiff and muddy downhill slopes, pebbles/sand at some point, rocks, more deep puddles of mud and much more mud. Fortunately, I made the right decision.I sticked to the idea that I shouldn’t wear my new running shoes coz the shoes I used that day would never go back to its original form and smell, ever again. Despite finishing all muddy, dirty, sweaty and smelly, I’ve to say I enjoyed the race. I shall go for more Trail runs coz I JUST LOVED IT!!!!
