First time in Miri town...
Love the area where hotel & race venue is so close to each other...
Airport also not far away from town...
Bib collection kinda long queue in Pullman hotel...
But the speed is manageable by the organiser...
Quite some booths surround the bib collection area...
We went to the waterfront for same seaview photo session...
Taking some vegeterian food with William...
My hm start at 2am...
Can see 2 familiar elite faces from KL...
Quite hard to beat them...
My target this time around is to beat my previous PB time in PBIM...
From the starting,i just speed up as usual with my almost 10k pace...
Not really able to see those few fast guys at front...
Trying to catch the 4th guy from 3km on ward...
Quite fast his pace & keep maintaining...
Close up with him @12km...
Thereafter i just overtake him & never turn back...
Keep maintaining my target 3:45 pace...
But due to uncertain last few km...
My pace was dropping...
Till last km,saw that signboard turn right which is going back town...
From there i speed up further to the finishing line...
Managed with my 1:21 time this round...
4th placing in men open...
A bit dissapoint not able to go up podium stage...
But its a consolation for me in this PB time...
Will try my best for next race...
Nothing is impossible...
