C-Mart Half Marathon 2019

Find out that need to run 3 loops around this Sungai Petani C-Mart Mall area...
This is a poor planning from the event management...
Can see that they still lack experience on organising the race...
Run through muddy route behind mall area and confusing junction in the shop lot areas...
i didnt think more on that as i knew those front Kenyan are too far to catch up...
Lucky enough to finish within podium placing offered...


Penang Electric & Electronic Run 2019

For the first time trying out the Asics racer shoe..
Outcome turn out to be a poor performance in this 11.2km race...
Not only run a poor time & lost to a guy which i normally can get better...
surely disappointed with this performance...
but this doesnt augur well on my confidence with this shoe...
again my mizuno is getting exhausted yet still cant find a replacement... :-(



Taiping Get Fit Run 2019

Wasn't really match to the top 2 guys who are just too far ahead...
Run alongside with Vadivellu, a top veteran in Msia running community...
Trying to close up with Muniandi in this 15km race...
Glad to be able to finish within top 3...
Nice route & scenery along Taiping town and Lake garden though abit dark when passing through...

Taiwan Trip & YunLin Half Marathon 2019

Travel cum racing as usual...Most of the items for instance, accommodation, transport are all decided in last minute. Hence kinda messy not able to plan the time properly. But we have a fruitful trip which went through some of the famous areas and travel by our own planning is much more convenient.
We used public express buss toward Taichng, Fengchia night market. Thereafter travel down to Yunlin for our half marathon race.This area abit rural which dont really have city bus. Therefore we find a shop to rent bicycle for our race day early morning transport. Day after race we went down to Chiayi which is famous of bypass town to Ali San Mountain. Here is much more developed but sadly not able to enjoy more days here. And our last 4days are actually in Taipei.

Which we went toward Shifen, Qing Tong, Jiufen (a must to go over mountain vacation & market).Most of the Taipei towns night market we went through as well. Ximen ding as usual for tourist. Over in Taipei you may use their city bus, MRT which is convenient as if you want to reach other areas beyond Taipei, we actually consider their TRA, Taiwan Train which is much cheaper compare to bus. Overall this is an unforgettable trip which i hope to visit in near future.

Using U-bike for Taipei town, which is much cheper than MRT & Bus

Penang Chinese Cross Country 2019

This year join without 10, feel something is missing...
Just run as usual and the youngster from Forward club is quite fast...
he keeps on distance himself from me throughout the early stage...
Only manage to catch up with him in last 3km...
Managed to overtake him in last 1.5km...
yet my poor finishing has caused me finished in 3rd ultimately...

2019 Juru 10Km Run: replace kl race with this as we are lack of that specific training. Run as usual on this industrial road that normally pack with traffic. Lil bit of lost direction inside taman road,lucky able to find out exact route. EeLing Ong though still in her low condition by managing to maintain current pace to finish 2nd placing. Nice medal & trophy dont know comparable to Thai race, ha! Shopping time & looking for next week crucial race. #o2running
