Easy-peasy 12km run in 1:09:59. My nephew Helmi also joining the race. My camera kaput after the last photo with medal. So, it is time to get a new one. Before the race During the race No negative thoughts cross my mind on race day

Before race During the race, pix courtesy of Tey & Vivien. After race Another one for collection No photo during the run. I didn't feel want to bring the camera. The race started at Padang Merbuk with 15km hilly loop around double hills in Bukit Tunku, Jalan Duta, Segambut Dalam. I ran extra 500m because I went back to start line after first loop when I forgot my helmet left on the bike. I was worried someone might steal it. After leaving it at baggage counter, I continued the run. Distance-Timing 15km - 1:39:39 30.5km - 3:41:06

The most recent race last Saturday night was Putrajaya Night Marathon. Last year, I ran half-marathon and I  decided to run full this year. My brother-in-law and nephew also took part in half marathon category. We had early dinner in Galleria Putrajaya together with Ultramarathoner friends Ray, Arman, Zinov & Zul. After Maghrib prayer, at start line I met many OPs participating in the race. OP Iran & OP Upak are running their first marathon. OP Stupe runs half marathon. OP Jehan, OP Doc Raja & OP Saufi take part in 10km run. Other runners were Doc Puisan, Cikgu Syed, Mohan, Coma, Andri, Nik Raiha, Aini, Robi, Azhar, Irina, Azim, Tey, Hadi, Elhan and many others to mention here.  Before start   After Ultramarathon a month ago, I only ran 32km, not enough mileage for marathon training actually. At least, I have to run 40km-50km mileage a week and I knew I'm going to suffer the last few kilometers during the race. The pain was bearable and I completed my 2...

A week after Krabi, I had to join Group Advanced Data's Pangkor Retreat. Yup, sandy beaches again. It was company retreat with all the boring team-building activities but we also had other fun activities. Trip to Pangkor Island Dinner at Teluk Nipah Boring indoor activities Fun activities! Super fun activities!! and few of the good looking chics in our team

The trip was planned about a year ago during our trip to Taman Negara. Initially, there were about 30 of us wanted to join the trip, but "all-boy trip to Thailand" doesn't sound right to our wives. Most were denied their right to travel to Krabi and leave passes have been revoked. Eventually, only 9 of us OP Bandit, OP Ala, OP Jubes, OP Bean, OP Mandela, OP Mahin, OP Abenyu, OP Kebu & me lucky enough to be on the trip. OP Mantat sent us away at LCCT From the airport we took a van straight to Ao Nang where the resort located. We were staying at Vipa Resort, a hut style resort with individual single rooms and chalet with rooms. Actually the resort nowhere near the beach but the place has nice view with 300 meter limestone cliff in the background. The owner of the resort Mr. Yat is a good friend to Mahin. Mahin has visited Krabi almost every year and sometimes he stayed for months to enjoy rock climbing and other activities. Vipa Resort After checked-in we...

Two days after my Ultramarathon, I have to run 4.7km representing Celcom in Rat Race 2012. I used this event as my recovery run because both legs still limping. Completed the race in 27 minutes and I was the first Celcom runner to cross the finishing line. Well, imagine if I'm in my tip top condition ;)  Rat Race 2012
