And in the end, the body was weak

I never thought there actually are THAT MANY people who can complete a 21km half-marathon so convincingly, males and females alike. Am totally humbled by my very embarrasing performance. Didn't help that the leg cramps keep acting up and I had to stop every few hundred metres to do stretching. Oddly though, I received the finisher's medal despite my unmatching timing. Think they decided to get rid of the excess.
