It was really great competition. Two days before stict diet - eating everything I want without any restriction. And x-day began... Wake up with funny mood, took my lovely new sport clothes and old(last years ASICS, cause new ones wasn`t arrived at the time).

 So I came to registration...not so much people, but very sportif. Lots of boys...like it! Before x-hous, made some excersises: running, stretching etc. Ans the x-hour came! We run fast and furious :)) shure, a a star tline i didn`t hear the rule sand race laps count, so I imagine that it need to be 4 laps. 1ST one was easy..2nd was ok...3rd was quite good, strart to accumulate power for last lap - FIRE! 4TH the best...but at finish line (wher efinish needs to be) organisators sais the it`s 8 laps - caous eone laps is only 2,5 km. o.O WTF? I became sad, as you can imagine for me 4 more laps - isn`t good news!!!

Ok, at 5th I met some man from my team, one more girl and two more boys. 6th I lost them..suhe, I run faster 8) I started to look for "time keeper" (it`s a person or two that run at one speed. for 1/2 marathon it`s 1h30m/1h45m/ 2h00m/ 2h15m).. I wanna find 2h00m "time keeper" caus ei know my speed and my enrgy savings isnt good, but bay from my team said, that this "time keeper" is so far from me...~15m behind me :)) so my 7th and 8th lap was brilliant. And i finished with 1h49m. And achive 3rd place! Won the medal and prize. See results here ;)
