PBIM: First attempt of commiting suicide this year

Yah,
This will be the third year I will be asking myself on the Penang Bridge at about 3.45am, the same question for the third consecutive years...
"Why the hell did I register for this race?"

and a year later I still click 'Pay Now' on their registration website

:)

So, when do I start practising?
Hermmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Lets check my schedule

MACAM TAKDE MASA JE DAH....

Lets Go KL - Nike City Run 10.10.10

Event : KL vs SG Nike City 10k Run
Date : 10.10.10 (Sunday)
Venue : KLCC Parking (Starting),
Route : All over KL including AKLEH
Pacer : Tottie and Yoes



Okay, so some of you must have heard earlier bout this challenge - meng-challenge between KL and SG on who run better. So today's the day. 10.10.10 to be exact. Cool date but not so cool run la I must say



You see, I have not been running since SCKLM2010. Ever since the race, I hangged my running shoe (well ekceli I put it for a quite good 4 month's rest) as well as my running attire. Reason being? Well, simple. Vitamin 'M' adalah memenuhi badan ini. Before this, I had cancelled at least 3 race namely MPSJ 10k Run, Newton Challenge and another one what race ntah lupa. So this time I really cant say no nemore.



*sigh*



booTak did not run today due to bad health condition. Well ekceli he was injured so he better not run at all la kan. So, he was the photographer for today, so called la until what incident. Haih...nantilah saya ceritakan.



Neways, parking KLCC nearby Binjai was the starting grid for the race. I would safely say around 6k people were there today. or maybe more. I wonder how many participants SG had for today. Hmmmmm



The race started at 7.15am. Exact! The only thing that I can conclude was theres too many kiddo around. or at least teenagers. So, u all know teenagers when they got little bit excited, they all run and sprint as if they only have 400m to go. Hehehe. Sampai yang terjatuh pun ada nyah. Mak tak reti nak komen eksited beno kome ni



Ran passed by Eden Village, Pavillion area, Bukit Bintang (apparently theres another race too. hooHa Fun Run), Jalan Sultan Ismail, KLCC, Renaissance kemudian moh ke AKLEH kaedahnya. Few KMs in AKLEH and then we were out back at Tabung Haji area and ran for 500km more to the finishing line. I think its better to sum up the race with points and LIKEY and ME NO LIKEY



Huh! (emo seketika)





LIKEY

• DJs that were stationed at almost every 3km. They managed to get the event hip hip and hooray


• Good traffic control. Pakcik polis menjalankan tugas dengan jayanya


• Event crew was helpful. And theres also enuff medic on the road. Or at least to my thinking la

ME NO LIKEY

• The concept of "100 Plus, drink and go". Apakahhhhh. People shared bottles as they were running out of paper cup at water station @KM6 and KM8


• The Malaysian attitude of "marilah melemparkan paper cup di merata tempat". Malaysian will always be Malaysian


• The over hyper exicted kids. Tolak menolak kengkonon mereka adalah laju and unstoppable. tak suka okie!


• The finisher award. alahaiiii..hooHa fun run pun ada medal okie

So, itulah sahaja cerita saya mengenai Nike City 10k Run. To be honest, I think SG kick out butt real hard. Theres not much participation thou. Perhaps due to the other race that seems more fun iaitu Fun Run.

Ouh ya, I clocked 1:18.46

Enjoy the picture.

* marilah stretching






* senyum melebar sebelum bermulanya larian tanpa mengetahui azab aftermath dek kerana tidak berlatih langsung sebelum race.






*berstretching lagi bersama tottie and yoes








* marilah melompat gembira



Ouh ya, lupa. Edan drop by to say hello. Hehehe. Highlights for the race. Akan tetapi terlupa untuk berfoto dek kerana terlalu terkesima. Beliau adalah pelari yang jaya!







* muka yang amarah kerana tiada photographer di finishing line

Ouh ya lagi sekali. Terlupa menceritakan kejadian booTak as photographer. Ada ke beliau tidak berada di finishing line kerana beliau agak kami akan tiba selepas 1jam setengah. Eish Eish eish....sungguh meng-underestimate saya dan jua tottie. Maka saya adalah emo seketika tadi



Wonder how the other run was? Awesome kah?

p/s: Pain ALL OVER ME BODY. *sigh*

Malakoff Run 12km

Kindly note that due to overwhelming response, only participants who have SIGNED UP and PAID for the event by 6 December 2009 are considered CONFIRMED and eligible to take part. The organisers will not accept payment at Race Kit Collection or on the day of the race.

Haih...
I forgot that I did not make payment for the race, hence my participation is not confirmed.
Double haihhhhhhhhhhh....

for anyone out there who knows anyone who cant make it for Malakoff Run 12km (Women) and have SIGNED UP and PAID, and willing to let me run using their bib (of course I'll pay the cost la), let me know.
Cause this kaki is so the itchy itchy to run another race. (ayat macam bagus.hahaha)
Hehehehhee...

adidas Sun Down Marathon

me: "The race will start at 3.45am la" (when I was telling my SIL about the Penang Bridge Marathon)
SIL: "Haaa, 3 pagi? Giler ke apa korang ni?"
me: *smile*

So when we talk about people who will be crazy enough to start running at 7pm and finish 15hrs later, the fact that I started my PBIM at 3.45am seems nothing here.
Hehehehhe...

So,
Lets talk about the adidas Sundown Marathon
*sigh*

Whats with the sigh?
I'll tell you why...

1. The crazy distance

Why is it crazy you may ask? It is going to be 100km marathon. I repeat 100km marathon. **sigh** or let me just give **sigh**....double sigh there. This is only for DAMN SERIOUS marathon runner and to those who have big hearts, strong determination and extremely powerful will power. *TABIK MEREKA*

2. The expensive fee

Hahhaha...I know this is actually considered normal for Singapore race but me being cheapskate, i think SGD70 adalah amat mahal bagiku untuk 42km race

3. No other reason

So, only 2 excuse for not participating. I am contemplating to try the full race. 42KM for that matters (for the knowledge of my non runner readers). Or maybe I should try the Pacesetter 30km race first. At least to complete the full marathon, it will only take me another 12km to push myself.

From what I heard, this is one of the best Singapore race organised previously. Hurm....

So, to those who wanna try the distance
Go to:

adidas Sundown Marathon




* website nyer

Checkout the theme color for the race. Guess my new mi adizero Ace2 would match it
Hehehehehehe
