Tips on running a very long distance in an organised race
1. Run your own race
2. Pace somebody
Look for somebody you like to look at, e.g. chio bu. But be careful not to stay too close or you might be accused as a stalker.
3. Look at the scenery
I think Singapore has got lots of intertwining terss which can make a nice art piece if you take a good look at it. But just be careful of what you step on.
4. Run your own race
5. Go through a tune in your head
If you don't carry an MP3 for runs you can just randomly come up with a tune that's interesting and keeps you going.
For example
Chorus:
This is the song that never ends,
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was,
And they just kept on singing it forever just because
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was,
And they just kept on singing it forever just because
Chorus X 9.99999999999E99
You SHOULD get to the end of the race before the 9.99999999999E99th time.
6. Hydrate at every water stop
Very very very important to keep hydrated. A sip of water (especially if it's sweet) can keep you sane for some time.
7. Run your own race
8. Stay positive
Always keep your head up and look far ahead. Think positive. I think pessimistic thoughts are very very dangerous because they multiply very quickly especially in a long run. A 'pain' can lead to another and to another and it goes on... Don't let negative thoughts get your head.
9. Talk to yourself
I think this is quite fun and it can be very motivating, especially if you feel damn lonely even when there are hundreds of people around you. It can make you look a bit crazy though.
10. Run your own race
Finally, if you can't get yourself to complete the distance, perhaps you can help others by motivating them. Wear a shirt with a sign on the back that says, "I'm faster than you" or "I'm 2 fast 2 furious for you." The bib which the standard chartered run gives you is perfect for writing such things! (You are supposed to write your reason to run on the bib and paste it on the back of your shirt)
