Thank you :)
Didn't have any during my training runs, but something felt wrong around my hip and thigh during the 32nd kilometer of the race! Ignoring it was extremely difficult, which explains as to why I walked most of the 41st kilometer, but then I just realise that it's a no-go-back situation as I'm almost done with the distance!

Surprisingly fine! It's the shins that hurt though :(

My approach is to try and get zoned out, to the point where your legs are on autopilot. Hence I usually try and pick a point far ahead of me and just stare at that until I reach it, and repeat the same. Helps me!

Haha yes the 50k is one of the shorter ultra distances!

Wish I could. This was around my college campus. The campus is in a pretty unsafe area, so running outside would be risky, especially given that it was at 4am and I also usually don't carry my phone with me!

A bowl of cashews, almonds and figs is my personal favorite right after a race!

As a matter of fact, towards the end I did feel GI issues creeping in!
