Rainy Marathon Day  31 October 2022

The 11k marathon mission has been completed in the rain joined together with 14,000 runners.

Before the running day, no good news from the forecast, an awful wet day for Auckland Marathon.

Cancel? postpone? or go ahead?

Sunday morning I put shoes on, in a water-resistant vest hopped onto a fully packed chartered bus to the Smales Farm. A few minutes after jogging, I took off the vest because of the mugginess.

The rain continued. I could feel my shirt, cap, leggings, socks and shoes gradually became damp.

Walking in the rain is not new to me, had a few times tramping in the bush stricken by the unpredicted weather.

The moving procession on the Bridge showed large patches of dark colour coming from raincoats, jackets, ponchos even umbrellas.

The rain did not take any break. I was absolutely soaked, but I would like to jog in the rain rather than on a burning hot sunny day, the previous Auckland Marathon in February was not enjoyable, blazing hot.

I am pleased with my second attempt at Auckland Marathon. Its unity, caringness and team spirit enlighten me a lot.

And I did it my way.

Thanks to all the people to make the Marathon happen, and all the people who support me and the team in donations or going for me and St John.
