Preparation for Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon

The Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon is coming to town on 27/2/2005 (Sunday)
I will attend the Half Marathon this year, and aiming my result to be 1 hr 45 mins.

I am going to take more carbo-hydrates in the following weeks. My food list will include more bananas, peanut butter, wheat/cereal and less meat.

I wish the weather will be better this year, cause the cold and rainy weather last year is really horrible. The confusion of the arrangement of the collection of the luggages making the case worse too.
