A journey of my life

The final edition Ironman Langkawi 2016. Fiza has been preparing for the race for the past one year. It is not easy to training for Ironman, twice a day, 6 days a week, for 5-6 months of no social life. She has been very dedicated and determined to finish the race no matter what. I tried my best to accompany her whenever I can during weekly training. With support from family and friends, she managed to finish her Ironman race in very good timing. Better than mine! And placing top 7 Malaysian women ranking. Traveling to Langkawi Race expo and race kit collection center Hall of Fame! Her name in participant list Test water She looked poised and calm Checking out the routes Interviewed by local medias Getting ready on race day Photo before start Cheerful and ready Race venue Swim... 3.8km Stunning! Bike... 180km Focus Run... 42.2km Last push to finish line Sun still up after heavy dow...

After 3 years of absent, this year I took part again in PDIT. No training and due to heart problem, I take it easy in the race. Race kit pick-up and carbo-loading Swim-Bike-Run Nicely captured by RaceXasia made me look like in a superhero costume Kena tapau lagi dgn Fiza, she really in her peak now

This is the first time Challenge organized an event in Malaysia. The race equivalent to half Ironman Distance. Carbo loading dinner  Swimming in Puteri Harbour was nice. Salt water but no current at all. Cycling route around Iskandar Puteri was almost flat But during running it was terribly hot. I could feel my brain was boiling. Flying near the finish line Yes, done my second half ironman distance this year After the race Surprisingly, without much training my timing much better than Desaru and I managed to clock sub 8 but got beaten by Fiza & Diana. Isk isk....

My first marathon this year, a 42km at 42 years old of me. No proper training prior to the race. It was long break since puasa. In average I ran 3km per week on the treadmill for about 2 months before the race. My target was sub 6 and managed to get it in the very nick of time after playing catch-up with 6 hours pacers during the last 12km...hehehe During the race After the race

Last time I raced in Desaru was 6 years ago. It was Uncle Chan's event but now a Singaporean event company took over it and because of that the race fee was exorbitant!! Unfortunately, I don't earn in SingDollar :( Race kit collection and welcome dinner Nervous?? Nope! Yeay!! 2km Swim. Bike 90km Run 21km Finished in 8 hours... bloody slow! After the race

I never been to Perlis in my entire life. It was my first visit to a little state up north of Peninsular Malaysia which famous with her mango Harum Manis that can fetch up to RM40 per kilogram. First time also took ETS Thanks to Izzaty & family for being great host Visit to Padang Besar border with Thailand Awesome seafood treat in Kuala Perlis Half Marathon race
