wtrfall chamang..

Lama sggh aku x pg hiking, ada lah dlm 7 thn.. so this time aku join mieo pg lata naning since dia pun ada keja/survey kena buat kat sana.. aku,ekin,mieo & lenny bkumpul kat area rmh lenny dlm kul 5am utk bsahur.. lps sahur trs je btolak ke bentong..

start hiking..

dlm kul 8am br start hiking dr wtrfall chamang ke lata naning.. as mieo said journey ambik masa 4 hrs.. so d 1st 1 hr ikut jalan balak, track x mencabar sgt lah coz just uphill je.. lps jln sejam br sampai 1st check point jln blk sblm start msk hutan.. mieo lead d way, aku jd sweeper je.. route ni byk gak pacat yg attack kitaorg.. lps sejam jln dr route balak br sampai 2nd check point, dr sini dah blh nmpk view gng rajah.. take 5 utk clear kan pacat2 kat kaki lps 2 terus sambung jalan.. kat sini aku lead d pack, br jalan 5-10 min dah terserempak dgn sekor ular atas track yg x bgerak.. skali pandang cam tunggul kayu je.. so pelahan2 je lah kitaorg jalan lalu semak2 sblh kiri utk pass through ular 2.. bila last person ekin lalu je br ular 2 bgerak msk kat semak2..

lps 2 all d way mieo lead d group sampai ke lata naning dlm kul 12pm(aftr 4 hrs walk).. tp b4 sampai, masa lalu tepi2 tebing 2 lenny tergelicir jatuh dr route tp nsb baik dia smpt bpaut kat akar2 pokok.. cemas gak lah kitaorg coz bwh 2 mmg gaung dlm, aku just grasp tarik dia naik ke atas..

sampai je camp site mieo & ekin pasang ground sheet, apa lg semua trs zZzzzz... just 1 hr short nap, kitaorg pg swimming kat wtrfall.. fuhh.. best beb.. fresh sggh air dia.. tp aku swimming ala kadar je, maklum lah bln puasa.. klu swimming cam ironman makruh lak karang.. :)

lbh kurang 2 hrs kat lata naning, kitaorg pack barang utk trn.. but b4 trn, kutip semua sampah2 yg ada kat skitar(well this is part of mieo project) .. d good things memang kat camp site ni x byk sampah-sarap pun.. so dlm kul 2.10pm br gerak trn & all d way masa trn kitaorg just kutip sampah2 yg ada atas track.. masa trn everyhing smooth je & as plan kul 6pm br sampai bwh..

hr 2 kitaorg bbuka kat pekan bentong b4 gerak blk kl..

Destination Alor Staq..

3.30am adai,zaki & aku dah gerak ambk helmi & trs ke ur destination ke utara.. sampai dlm kul 10am.. kat sana kitaorg tggl kat kampung azhar.. ptg pg ambik bib @ club house lps 2 sempat lah kitaorg ronda2 usha route utk ASJC + Larian Bendang + merayau town alor star, sggh gak pekan rabu (manis2 kat sini.. :))

Jumaat
31/7/09
Alor Star Jogging Club Half Marathon
21km

5.30am dah sampai, so masa warm up organiser announced dlm 200 org yg msk utk half.. 10k ramai gak tp utk women open & bdk sekolah je..

since peserta x ramai so masa starting aku start kat dpn.. start je aku bdesup lah lari laju mcm runners elit yg lain sambil2 cari pace.. masa ni pelik gak coz runners chap ayam yg lain still kat blakang x potong2 aku bila dah lps 1k br lah sekor2 laju kedepan.. so lari lah kitaorg 5 ekor ayam dlm sebarisan utk 1k adalah.. lps 2 mcm biasa lah sekor2 hilang, tggl aku sorang2 je kat blkg.. bila peserta x ramai mmg lari sorang2 jelah spanjang route ni.. since x sempat pg toilet b4 race so aku sggh je kat petronas utk "window shoping" roughly after 5k.. route dia dlm 80% jalan lurus & 1st water station yg aku jumpa adalah dlm 7-8k..

dlm 9k br msk kwsn kampung & lps 2 kena daki jambatan utk cross sg.. masa ni aku rasa nak jalan je tp x jadi bile selisih dgn helmi yg dah u turn & inform aku u-turn point dlm 100mtr kat dpn je & bila trn jmbt jumpa zaki & adai lak.. so lps u-turn, kena daki blk jmbtn ni.. masa ni mmg x larat dah nak daki tp ada old timer ni yg lari kat blkg aku srh aku pasang gear 2 tp aku ckp aku gear auto je coz dah x larat.. bila klr kwsn kampung trs je lari jalan yg lurus td sampai ke finishing line.. biasanya klu lari jln lurus mmg tension sikit tp since race start early + cuaca pun redup kira lari pun ok je.. on d way patah blk ke finishing aku follow je this oldtimer b4 dia tggl kan aku lps last wtr station.. so aku sampai dgn timing 2:06:17.. consider good timing coz aku plan nak lari fun run je + target pun dlm 2:30.. mgkn x de pressure + nice cuaca..

bagi aku ASJC is a good race event.. race dia sempoi je + organised by a small club(committe semua old timer) tp race best + relax x payah nak pening2.. dtg lari je.. BEST..!!

Larian Bendang..
6km

6.am aku dah bgn, pg ni alor staq hujan lebat.. ahhh patut lah sejuk giler.. lemah je nak bgn mandi dah 2 kena pg lari lak.. mMmm.. bdn still lemah2 lg coz lari smlm blm recover.. well bgn gak lah..

dlm 7.00 kitaorg sampai stdm darul aman, hjn msh trn renyai2 je.. start race kat dlm stadium so warming up lbh kurang kat atas track + senam robik.. pg 2 DYMM Sultan kedah mencemar duli dgn officiate larian ni dlm kul 8.am..

race men open ni ada medal tp limited 30 je.. x de kategory men veteran so most top 10 runners utk men open + men vet dlm race semalam (ASJC half) pun join gak.. so memang competetive gak lah race ni klu nak medal.. top runner muniandy pun ada gak lah..

bila start race, semua dah bdesup.. runners semua kena buat 1 lap b4 klr stdm.. br dlm 200mtr dah ada top runner yg tgolek masa selekoh.. fuhh.. hebat sggh race ni coz 6km ni consider mcm sprint run je.. klr dr stdm dlm 500mtr dah kena daki jambatan.. ahh.. jambatan lagi.. so bila dah reach 3k pusing kat kwsn perumahan time ni lah ramai bdk2 sklh yg dah potong aku.. laju2 diaorg ni baik laki or perempuan, tgk gaya semua ni athelete sklh.. sepanjang race, aku struggle eventhough lari slow je.. mgkn bdn x recover lg dr race smlm tp aku guna race ni utk preparation 4 KOTR race besok.. bila dah sampai area stdm marshall tnjk aku ke arah kiri stdm than msk dlm perkarangan luar stdm.. so aku lari je lah sampai kat area parking kereta tp pelik gak x kan route dia mcm ni.. tiba2 ada brother ni pggl aku ckp aku dah slh route, aku dah tpinga2 coz aku btl2 dah stranded dlm area parking ni.. klu patah blk adalah kena lari blk dlm 400-500mtr.. aku dah mls nak lari time ni so aku trs je lah jalan ke dpn and end up fininsh kat blkg fininshing line yg kat dpn entrance stdm.. mMmm stupid btl lah diaorg ni.. bila aku sampai br lah top2 runners yg lain sampai & diaorg tkejut coz aku sampai dulu dr diaorg plus diaorg x dpt placing dlm top 30.. rupa2nya diaorg pun dah sesat jalan coz x jumpa finishing line.. diaorg pakat protes kat organizer, aku pun x faham btl dgn orgniser coz lps tangan + marshall yg diaorg ltk pun bdk2 pengangkap yg x tahu apa2.. nmpak sgt diaorg x brief kat bdk2 tu.. kitaorg angkat kaki balik.. STUPIDD..!!

b4 blk sggh rmh azhar ziarah new born baby.. Ashraff Haiqal.. so dlm kul 3pm blk KL tp sggh SP.. kul 10pm br sampai KL..

ADIDAS KING OF THE ROAD
21km

sampai stdm shah alam dlm kul 6am.. kat parking dah jumpa meio yg br sampai, sempat gak lah bgmbr..

so race start kul 6.30am.. mcm biasa start dr blkg je dgn slow pace, sempat gak lah lari dgn kelvin(pacemaker) masa naik bkt klr stdm.. even slow pace tp aku notice ramai gak lah yg aku potong, makna nya diaorg ni lari lg slow lah dr aku.. so 1st wtr station @ 2.5km.. awal nya.. d 1st 10k memang aku lari slow je tp aftr 10k br lah aku gear up sikit pace dia..

pelik btl coz pg ni aku lari maintain je x struggle langsung eventhough aku br je lari ASJC + larian bendang.. menarik bila fininshing kat dlm stdm tp masa trn terowong mmg berdesup gak runners catagory A utk ke finishing line coz semua keja medal yg limited 2.. so aku sampai dgn timing 2:12:47 + dpt medal(itu pun nsb je)..

lps ni long rest utk xtvt lari aku sempena bln ramadhan.. so insyallah kita race lg lps puasa nanti..

KUANTAN TC RUN

2009-07-20T10:18:00.000-07:00

Date: 19/7/09
Distance: 10k
Time:7.30am

we've been looking forward 4 this event since last yr x ade.. so kali ni trip 2 cars w jasni & irina join us.. sampai kuantan dlm kul 5pm so trs proceed ke vistana hotel utk ambik bibs.. kat sana jumpa shikin & friend utk bg bib dia.. terus ke teluk cempedak utk cari hotel.. we managed dpt budget hotel @ anjung selesa, walking distance je to starting point..

bib collection @ vistana hotel.. (usha apa kat tingkap 2)

lps 2 terus pg usha starting point kat pantai teluk cempedak.. mMmm.. nice environment.. than jumpa lamchanak kat situ yg baru sampai dgn kenny.. bila tanya kat mana dia stay, dia ckp blm ada tmpt lg so aku ajak dia stay dgn kitaorg sekali coz bilik aku blh accomodate 10 people tp kitaorg blima je..

mlm 2 lps isyak pg dinner kat foodcourt pantai tc je.. jalan kaki je ke sana.. kitaorg mkn simple2 je tp bila dpt bill semua terperanjat coz harga memang GILER MAHAL dr harga kat kl.. aku mkn nsk ayam goreng kunyit + teh o = rm8.50!!.. mMmm mengarut lah.. klu tahu mahal kat situ baik kitaorg mkn kat fastfood je.. aku tido mlm 2 kul 12pm tp kul 1am aku,zaki+irina pg jemput ann @ station bus.. bus dia sampai dlm kul 3am..

pg 2 kul 7.10am gerak ke pantai.. pg simpan beg + borak2 dgn runners lain + senam robik jap br lah race start.. kali ni aku start kat dpn sikit adalah dlm barisan ke 5.. start je race kena daki bkt.. hahaha.. klu biasa bukit2 mcm ni aku jalan je tp since br start lari je lah slow & steady, ramai gak yg laju masa daki ni.. bila trn bukit br lah aku laju skt..

bkt yg kena daki..

bila reach 3k, aku rase perut dah senak.. hahaha.. lari slow pun blh senak gak perut ke.. mMmm.. aku stop utk bend down jap lps 2 trs lari.. masa2 ni aku jumpa tai & uncle tan yg potong aku.. nak follow diaorg x larat lak, so plahan je lah aku lari sampai aku jumpa wtr station @ 4k.. lps 2 smbg pace plahan gak coz x larat btl pg ni blari.. bila reach 8k aku nmpk sorang old timer potong aku, not bad pace dia so follow je dia, time ni lah br pace aku mningkat.. hihi.. mnumpang je pace org aku ni.. so dlm 1k ke penamat aku nmpk zaki, cuba kejar dia tp x larat dah coz masa nak finishing 2 kena daki blk bkt yg awal td.. bila trn bkt dah nmpk dah kwsn starting point dia tp bila sampai situ kitaorg semua kena proceed ke arah pantai coz finishing dia kat tp pantai.. walaupun lari atas pasir pantai ni berat sikt tp menarik gak coz race ni ada kelainan sikit.. so aku sampai finishing line dgn time 55:00..

Finishing point @ tepi pantai..

all d gang.. standing(l-r): zaki,azhar,zainy,irina,jasni,
on knee(l-r): shikin,ann & shikin

lepas race, uncle tan wah seng tgr aku & tanya ada apa2 komen or complain tak dgn race ni.. aku ckp aku x tahu apa nak complain coz x ada apa yg nak d complain.. route ni bg aku mmg menarik eventhough race start @ 7.30am tp redup je coz byk pokok tp jalan.. event organisation pun menarik, very simple x kelam kabut mcm kat ipoh hr 2.. so as recreational runner mcm aku ni yg pg blari coz nak bseronok je memang enjoy lah.. really2 have fun.. insyallah thn dpn blh repeat..

IPOH INTERNATIONAL RUN ~ Chaos

2009-07-12T09:05:00.000-07:00

Date: 5/7/09
Time: 6.55am
Distance: 10km

Bgerak from kl lewat skit coz kamarul & hamdi sampai labat (mtr rosak).. so roughly 4.30pm br klr dr kl.. stop by kat tapah & kat sana jumpa midon,naresh,murali + jasni so gerak ke ipoh sekali.. sampai ipoh roughly 7pm ++ tp x jumpa stdm.. lama gak lah pusing town ipoh ni dkt kul 9 br sampai stdm indramulia utk abik bib no.. tp bib aku sarjit (member off branch ipoh) dah tolong ambik kan so bila sampai hotel br dia bg bib, thanx bro.. mlm 2 aku stay @ hotel lotte dgn zaki,azhar,adai,midon,naresh,jasni,murali dlm family suite.. thanx 2 ann + irina coz tolong book kan hotel 4 us..

Tgh bincang strategy

Subuh yg lebat..

Pg 2 kul 5am dah bgn tp kat luar hujan selebat2 nya.. tension je semua org masa ni, midon time ni pun dah rasa x nak lari dah.. anyway dlm kul 6.15am kitaorg gerak gak ke stdm dlm hujan lebat.. sampai je sana redah je hujan utk ke starting point, eventhough hjn x reda lg tp ramai yg dah sampai.. we been inform earlier yg race utk semua category akan start serentak.. tfikir gak lah bila semua start @ d same time blh klm kabut masa starting nanti.. pkl 7am semua runners dah bkumpul kat starting point dlm keadaan hujan msh trn lg coz pikir yg event dah nak start.. adalah dlm 15min aku bdiri dlm hjn tp race msh x start lg so bila dah x tahan sejuk aku pg bteduh kat dpn stadium.. gila diaorg ni, x kan nak tggu hjn bhenti br nak start race padahal runners semua dah get ready kat starting point.. so kul 7.30am br d lps kan.. maknanya semua runners kena bhujan dlm 30min br start lari.. gila!! stupid!!

start je race, semua bdesup.. aku tgk ada yg btolak2 coz jalan nak klr stdm 2 sempit skit + redah je lopak2 air.. aku start dgn slow pace je coz mmg x larat sgt tp lari gak lah.. since semua category lari serentak mmg ramai time la jalan coz x perasan signage yg kat tepi jalan 2 bila ramai sgt runners.. aku lari ni pun ikut je runners dpn yg pakai bib sama category..

time ni aku maintain je larian aku & gang2 runners yg lain awal2 lg dah sayur aku.. memang terasa lah sakit dr SCKL yg x recover lg.. sampai ke finishing line ari ni.. klu x slp dlm 3k br hujan bhenti + time ni lah br route 10k & 21k split.. ada gak lah yg tsilapku lari slow pace & bila dah dkt dgn stadium br gear up skit pace aku.. akhirnya aku cross fininshing line dgn timing 50min tp medal dah x ada.. but its ok coz memang aku x target pun dlm event 10k ni..

masa sampai kat fininshing line 2, official dia x bg pun sijil tp aku been inform yg sijil blh collect kat booth yg disediakan.. bila sampai booth 2 aku tgk ramai sgt yg tgh beratur so aku malas lah nak collect setakat sijil je, biar lah gang2 lain lain q coz diaorg nak collect medal diaorg.. tp aku tgk org btambah ramai + q x gerak2.. time ni lah keadaan btambah kelam kabut, tmpt ambik medal + cert at d same place.. ramai gak lah aku tgk yg dah mengamuk kena q lama just nak ambik cert je.. yg nak ambk medal pun bengang gak coz lari 10k je dah 50min tp q nak ambik medal+cert 1hr5min.. mengarut sggh..!! aku tgk zaki pun dah x nak ambik medal dia.. nama je INTERNATIONAL event tp organizer teruk betul..!!

Kena berebut nak ambik cert & medal..

ada sorang mamat ni siap boleh curi 1 beg plastik medal masa keadaan tgh kelam kabut 2... padan lah muka diaorg.. even 1 of d official blh ckp kat aku "u can't compare this w kl", bila aku mention kat diaorg yg event kat kl x mcm ni.. mMmm.. whatever lah..!!

Bila sampai kat area pavillion dlm 27k, peha aku dah rasa skt.. pelik gak coz normally lutut yg skt tp lutut aku still ok lg.. anyway its not affected larian aku, so carry on lari cam biasa je cuma kat area bkt bintang ni up hill skt.. sampai petaling street kat 30k aku sggh toilet 4 2nd time, timing dlm 3hr20min.. still with in target sama cam last yr gak, hopefully dpt sampai dlm 5hr.. time ni aku dah start jalan kaki je coz jln kat stdm negara ni uphill, x larat sgt nak lari.. tp msk jln hang tuah aku lari blk sampai ke flyover dwn bahasa lps 2 continue bjalan daki flyover 2.. bila trn flyover pickup truck dbkl pass by aku dgn 3-4 runners yg injured dlm 2.. so mgkn ni lah sweeper bus yg biasa organiser sediakan utk runners yg injured + x larat utk habis kan marathon diaorg.. harap2 jgn lah aku sekali2 naik bus ni masa buat full.. x rela aku unless klu btl2 injured lah..

Sampai wisma tani dlm 38k jumpa IM zulhassan tgh blenggang.. halfway lg dia dah injured.. dpn wisma tani ada wtr station tp air dah habis.. memang x patut btl benda cam ni happen masa lari full marathon.. so far d 3 full yg aku lari x pernah happen mcm ni.. btl2 cam low class je organiser ni coz x leh nak foresee benda mcm ni boleh happen bila wtr station is being share w 10k,21, & 42k.. aku slowly lari coz nak reach finhising line dlm 5hr tp bila sampai jln kat JKR perut aku dah senak.. sama cam last yr gak bila sampai area sini mgkn jln kat jkr ni down hill so tpaksa lah aku bend down utk 3-4 kali.. time ni aku rasa mmg x de harapan je nak reach 5hr.. sampai bgn dbkl dah 4hr40, tiggal lg 3k 2 go tp memang sakit gak lah nak maintain pace, mcm ni lah bila x ckp training.. turn jauh gak lah kat bgn cycle & carriage d chow kit, bila sampai bgn MJ jumpa linda tgh bjalan.. laju gak cik kak ni tp dah cramp tpaksa bjalan je.. so spanjang jalan TAR memang ramai org kiri kanan yg tgk + bg semangat, jumpa gak kak jenap yg on d way blk hotel.. so bila sampai kat dtrn dah ramai org kiri kanan bg tepukan semangat kat fininsher runner yg baru sampai.. nampak lah member2 yg dah lama tggu aku sampai dlm panas 2.. thanx guys.. bila aku tgk ramai supporter kat finishing line 2 aku rasa bsemangat cam lari kat singapore je.. atmosphere dia kat finishing line memang meriah cuma bserabut skit bila ramai sgt org yg dah habis lari blegar kat dpn jln fininshing.. anyway akhirnya sampai gak aku d finishing line dgn timing 5:07:34.. well x dpt nak timing sub 5 this time but still within initial target + bttr than sundown hr 2..

Masa last lap, gaps antara runners mmg dah jauh dah.. so bila naik bkt selepas tasik kat blkg 2 aku jalan je.. x larat nak lari dah.. masa ni aku sorang2 je, mmg x de runners dpn & blkg aku.. tp x lah sepi sgt coz sblh 2 highway je, mmg dgr bunyi kereta cuma x nmpak je coz track kat atas bkt + tselindung dgn pokok2.. lps daki bkt aku lari pelan2 approaching toilet yg kat blkg 2.. suddenly bila aku lps je toilet 2, aku ternampak kelibat sekor binatang dlm 10 meter dpn aku.. keadaan track 2 kelam sikit, binatang 2 btl2 kat tgh track tgh nak cross dr kanan ke kiri.. aku stop coz aku cuak sikit + confused..! binatang apa 2..!!!

Bila aku toleh belakang, aku nmpk sorang runner ni dlm 10mtr blkg aku.. so aku tggu dia sampai kat aku.. bila aku toleh blk kat dpn binatang 2 dah hilang.. aku tanya runner 2.. "erkh.. u nampak ke apa tu..?" dia ckp.. "anjing ke..!" aku senyap je.. aku smbg lari blk dgn dia.. bila dah lps dr tmpt aku nmpk binatang 2 cross.. aku ckp dlm hati.. "itu bkn anjing..! tp 2 binatang pembawa "INFLUENZA H1N1"..!! ehh apa dia buat kat dlm tmn bkt jalil ni..!! ahh.. confused aku.. btl ke apa yg aku nampak 2.. tp dgn physical yg bsr + kepala menunduk mengadap tanah masa bjln.. aku confident dgn apa yg aku nampak.. well nsb baik aku nmpk masa last lap so x lah kena lalu lg tmpt 2.. so at last aku managed habis kan larian dgn timing 2jam20minit.. not bad coz timing aku 10mnt lbh awal dr target aku.. masa lpk mkn + minum aku tanya regular runner yg biasa dgn track 2, diaorg admit apa yg aku nmpk 2 memang betul....!

mcm biasa, santapan after race..

1st trophy..

Timing Chip guna chronotrack system (chip dia ada kat blkg tag)

10.15pm - Gerak dr hotel ke changi, boarding kat station mrt paya lebar dlm 8 station sampai kat pasir ris station.. so dr situ naik shuttle bus dia pg ke starting point.. on d way naik bus 2 mmg jam sgt lah so sampai pun kira2 20 min b4 race start.. so sampai je trs tkr baju + warming up lebih krg je.. x smpt aku nak buat routine ritual aku b4 race (apa lg.. pg toilet lah) mMmm jawap nya tkedu2 lah masa lari nanti..

Route ke Starting point..

Kitaorg start race at d behind pack.. org ramai sgt nak sampai ke starting point pun bjalan dlm 3-4min.. sesak dia aku rasa ada lah mcm sesak bila klr dr masjid jamek lps smbyg jumaat.. lps 2 br lah blh blari tp x blh buat apa2 pun, lari ikut blkg org rapat2 coz org ramai + jalan dia pun sempit dlm 2 lane je.. dlm 10min lbh gak lah kitaorg mcm ni, selit2 kiri kanan je.. panas lari tgh mlm ni.. mak aii.. bahang betul.. kena lak lari sblh runaway airport changi mgkn tar jln dia yg buat rasa bahang.... fuhh kuyup aku.. padahal aku rasa br lari dlm 2-3 k, pace pun x de lg.. 10k aku just nice dlm 62min.. well dlm pace aku je, masa dlm 11k aku jumpa zaki and lari dgn dia je sampai dlm 15k lps 2 aku dah x larat.. memang slow, tgk timing pun mmg pelahan dr biasa, this time mmg rasa penat & mcm nak stop bjln je tp aku dpt maintain lari lg pelan2.. masa ni lari kat east cost park and baru lah x rasa bahang sgt, kat sini ramai yg camping.

After 22k br klr dr east cost park, timing mmg teruk.. masa 20k pun dah cecah 2:30.. entah lah yg aku tahu lps 14k td mmg aku x larat.. dr east cost park kena cross highway 2 d other side guna overhead bridge(jejatas).. o/h bridge jenis ram dia yg motor + bicycle pun blh cross.. lain mcm sggh m'thon ni, kena lari cross jejantas lak.. aku jln je masa menaik( x lrt babe).. Msk kwsn resident lari tepi2 aprtment + blkg rmh + tepi station mrt + sblh longkang bsr mcm sg. + cross longkang dgn jmbtn bgoyang bila ramai runners lari at d same time (ingatkan suspension bridge..) nsb baik x roboh.. bila sampai 26k jumpa lg naik jejantas yg ke 3, kena cross highway lg.. brp byk highway nak cross ni.. tp jejantas ni guna tangga lak.. adohh.. kaki dah lah x leh nak bend, kena lah naik ni.. rasa cam nak merangkak je.. slow & steady je lah aku naik..

D final sprint @ finishing line.. Fuhh lega babe..

Bila sampai bedok reservoir, track bpasir + bdebu.. aku cuba lari ikut rumput kat tepi tp kejap je coz glp + x even.. so blasah je lah lari ats pasir.. msk 30k dah start lari kat tepi jln guna pave way.. yg x best track concrete (bad 4 my knee..) time ni dah x larat so strategy just tackle 1k at a time tp 1k rasa jauh je.. fuhh.. bila lah nak sampai ni.. 30k pun dah dlm 3:45.. penat + letih + mengatuk.. last 2k rasa jauh je dah 2 bila msk kwsn changi bbukit lak.. waduhh.. mana entrace ke finishing line ni.. yup there u r tp instead cross jmbtn kecik yg straight ke fininshing, runners kena lari guna jln jauh yg sblh kanan br pusing blk pg finishing line (teringat kat finishing LG).. wahh.. at last aftr 5hrs54m51s, sampai pun aku kat fininshing... fuhh jauh sggh off target dlm 24minit, PB pun off 1hr.. lps je finishing line 2 aku pg timbang kat scale.. b4 race 57.2kg, after race 55.8kg.. sekilo lbh brt aku trn.. Masa ni aku cuma ingat blk hotel + shower + aircond 16 degree + bantal + blanket + zzZZzzz....

Race day..

Well pg kul 730am kitaorg dah gerak ke Starting point @ Berjaya.. Tp b4 sampai Berjaya kena lah mendaki bkt dia yg mencanak 2 so roughly dlm 15 min + bpeluh2 kitaorg pun sampai.. join star2 lain warming up b4 race start..

(L-R) azhar,shikin,miow,adai,zaki,shah + yap & d gang..

Mcm biasa international flag off 1st lps 2 br local.. route awal dlm 2k sblh golf couse bbukit tp x seteruk bera.. layan je b4 msk hutan.. once msk hutan terus je start mdaki gng.kajang.. waduhh.. well mula2 aku ok lg, pace pun maintain memang kedpn gak lah compared dgn bdk2 kaki gunung coz masa road awal aku dah tgglkan diaorg.. lps 1/2 jam mendaki, aku dah x blh maintain pace so aku slow lah skt tp track mmg mendaki je + licin + berduri2 + batu2 bsr(bwh lubang dlm) + panjat guna tali + lari lereng gaung.. mak aii.. bbeza sggh dgn track trailblazer coz yg ni macam kat t.bera gak mmg track blm teroka.. btl2 challenging..!

At 1 point masa tgh blari 2 aku panjat lah batu bsr kat dpn aku utk ke dpn & suddenly bila aku dah kat atas batu 2 br aku perasan yg bdk blkg lari ikut track ke kiri.. hampehh btl.. rupanya aku slh track, confident je panjat..!! br nak trn dr batu 2, mieow pun dtg & tgr "buat track sendiri ke.." mMmm.. aku senyum je lah.. lps 2 ramai lah sayur aku..

Masa mdaki ke puncak aku jumpa yap and aku sampai puncak dlm 1jam30min.. Fuhh.. masa ni dah rasa lega coz lps ni menurun je.. tp ada gak lah mdaki skit.. most of d time aku dlm hutan ni jalan sorang je psl even ada runners few meters dpn or blakang pun mmg kita x nmpk.. so masa aku tgh bjalan on d way trn 2 aku nampak sekor scorpion hitam dpn aku, ada lah bsr tapak tangan.. mak aii bsr nya, btl2 tgh laluan track dan mengadap kat aku.. aku cuba sergah tp x grk2 pun ingat kan dia nak lari ke tapi tp stay je kat situ standby mcm nak fight dgn aku je terpaksalah aku cari kayu tuk tolak ke tepi dan kebetulan ada s'porean lady ni dtg & tolong alih kan dgn kayu.. Tapi bkn aku sorang je yg experience mcm ni coz yg lain2 pun experience gak.. si shah masa jatuh kat lereng bkt btl2 sebelah sarang ular sawa, adai nyaris2 nak pijak ular yg tgh melintas jalan, miow nmpk ular lintas dpn dia, si shikin ular melintas blakang dia masa dia tgh duduk rest.. Fuuhh..! lain mcm btl dlm hutan kat tioman ni..

So aku bjaya klr hutan dlm masa 2jam15min and lps 2 track road lak.. masa ni aku dah lega dah coz blh lah aku buat new pace.. for d info, road kat tioman mostly by concrete not tar and that d reason vehicle r not bound by d JPJ R&R.. so kat sini x yah nak guna helmet or byr road tax pun.. tp aku x suka lari atas concrete coz it'll exaggerate aku nya knee injury.. :( mMmm.. apa blh buat lari je lah and suddenly masa on d way ke kg.juara aku selisih dgn 1 mamat ni, aku pun wonder kenapa mamat ni patah blk.. injured ke dia coz dia bjalan je tp lps 2 aku jumpa lg 2-3 runner, br aku tahu kena u turn kat kg. juara.. ahh sudah.. coz msh aku selisih dgn diaorg semua, aku tgh blari trn & diaorg tgh 'bjalan' naik so bila aku tanya ada lah roughly dlm 2k utk sampai check point kg.juara.. mMmmm perit2 tp kat sini mmg ramai bdk2 kaki gunung aku sayur blk coz diaorg bjalan je.. sampai check point @ kg juara tgh panas terik tp dpt air mineral x sjk, tekak pun x lah nak terima tp minum je.. so mula lah pendakian aku bpatah blk naik atas.. fuhh.. perit2.. jalan naik mmg mencanak, even jln concreate pun aku smpt gak bhenti take 5.. route dia adalah mcm route kita drive naik genting highland cuma jln dia lrs je.. fuhh.. perit2.. tgh aku lyn bjln naik sorang2 tiba2 ada sorang runner (jojo) panggil aku.. "bro, stop lah dulu, sggh mandi-manda kat sini.." blh aku toleh kat kiri aku nmk ada 3 runners tgh mandi kat 1 rmh yg undr construction.. rmh ni ada 2 kolah kat sblh tepi dia.. mMmm.. aku pun decide join lah, sdp gak lah klu dpt 1 das gayung ni.. oppss slp bkn gayung tp baldi, 2 yg jd 3-4 kali aku siram 2... fuhh dia nya air mmg sjk giler.. mmg best btl, rasa btl2 freshh mcm mandi air sg. je.. Well thats d beauty or being a slow runner, blh btl2 nikmati alam sekitar.. :) lps 2 sambg lari dlm kelompok 4 org, aku+jojo+bro azhar(navy)+sorang mamat askar ni..

Lps je route jln ni, rupa2 nya ada masuk hutan lg.. ahh sudah.. tension2.. tp masa msk htn ni aku yg lead.. half way br tkr lead, htn ni x mencabar coz dah ada track + trn tangga.. so masa trn tangga ni lah lutut start sakit.. mMmm.. tahan jelah.. aku rasa ada lah dlm 45min dlm htn br klr, so bila klr ada lah dlm 4k utk sampai blk ke berjaya.. time ni kena lari lalu kg.tekek so ramai lah yg bg tepukan & semangat.. atlast after 5.05min aku bjaya sampai fininshing line.. fuhh.. alhamdulillah.. akhirnya sampai gak..

Meow as usuall did us proud by claiming 4th position in women local.. Congrates..!!

At d end, lutut btambah sakit + kaki luka tpijak duri.. fuhh.. memang perit2..!! Will i particapte in another eco-challenge.. mMmm.. lets c whats comes around..

SAS ECO-CHALLENGE - T.BERA

Well this time around aku join race Sultan Ahmad Shah(SAS) Eco-Challenge 1st leg @ bera on 2/5, this going 2 b my 2nd eco-challenge race.. Aku konvoy bertujuh dgn gang2 eco-challenge dr kl meow,dila,john,munzir,wawan & iwan.. Gerak dr kl dlm kul 4pm and sampai bera roughly dlm kul 630pm.. Sampai sana registration counter dah tutup tp official dr Army ramai lg kat situ so smpt bbual dgn diaorg & diaorg pun bg lah a few tips about d track dlm htn + sungai2 yg kena tempuh.. Aduhh.. Ada sg. lah plak..!!

Pagi 2 lps bfast kitaorg gerak ke t.bera.. sampai dlm kul 730.. masa reg. notice yg 80% of participant dr bdn beruniform.. Mak aii.. masak lah aku, harap2 jgn lah last..

(L-R) Dila,Miow,John,Iwan,Munzir,Wawan + gang from Klang..

Race start dlm kul 9am.. International flag off 1st, dlm 5 min after baru local pun start.. Start lari on d road dlm 3km b4 msk htn.. Baru lari x sampai 100meter dah kena daki bukit mcm bkt tunku, 1st bkt selamba je.. lps tu 2nd bukit lak ok je lps tu 3rd bukit lak.. mak aii mencanak beb, aku daki pelan2 je tp aku tgk ramai yg dah bjalan kat belakang.. lps 2 still byk bkt but mendatar je, aku lari maintain pace je..

Race Map

Bila msk hutan aku still ok lagi cuma bila dah jam kat dlm 2 pace pun dah x de.. Nak overtake pun susah so aku ikut je crowd.. lpas 2 br nampak dila & munzir overtake aku, licik btul diaorg through pass d crowd, nak follow pun susah.. roughly after 10min br meow & wawan overtake aku so aku pun decide 2 follow je diaorg.. dlm htn ni byk kali aku tlangar akar pokok, byk kali aku tersungkur & terlentang sekali but after awhile kitaorg pun klr htn & jumpa 1st check point roughly about 1hr20min.. but masa nak klr hutan 2 kitaorg dah jumpa 4-5 runners kenya yg dah bpatah blk.. fuhh.. laju sggh diaorg ni..!

Klr hutan msk ladang kelapa sawit tp kena daki lak guna tali utk msk ladang.. ada lah tinggi dlm 1 tingkat bgn.. Well this is all where d story started.. time ni aku msh dgn wawan & meow, so bila aku tgk wawan pace meow so aku pun decided 2 follow them istead of terus je lari dgn pace aku.. masa ni meow dlm post 8 catogary perempuan so bttr aku tolong wawan utk get her placing.. we managed 2 get her pass through 2 VAT ladies 2 put her in 6th post. and hopefully dpt beat another runners yg kat dpn.. but a while after that she started to cramp.. ahh.. sudah..! aku tahu klu dah start cramp masa lari ni cramp ni aku bterusan coz aku ada experienced dgn teamate aku masa traiblazer thn lps.. so aku & wawan managed 2 recovered her left leg yg cramp 2 tp tiba2 dia jerit yg kaki kanan dia lak kena cramp.. waduh..!! aku & wawan push lak kaki kanan dia well after a few minit dia ok & kitaorg trs lari but by this time d 2 VATS ladies dah manage potong kitaorg.. so she back in 8th post. & onward after that meow bterusan cramp alhamdulillah we managed 2 get her back on foot.. But i know she is very strong girl coz rite after recovered je dia terus lari balik eventhough dlm ladang ni je dah bpuluh kali dia cramp.. masa time ni sorang lg runner perempuan dr MPK managed 2 pass her through so rite now she is in post. 9.. so our target now is to maintain her placing.. harap2 x de lg yg dpt potong..

Klr je ladang kelapa sawit kena msk blk hutan b4 d cut off period of 4hrs.. msk je hutan aku tgk meow laju je lari n wawan follow blkang.. tp aku x larat dah so aku decided slow n steady bjalan je dlm hutan, bila sampai kat tmpt medic aku lpk kjp.. bila abg din sampai aku trs start blk jalan dgn dia sampai klr hutan.. dlm hutan ni mental gak coz rasa lama sgt.. so lps 5jam5min aku pun sampai kat finishing.. Fuhh.. lega sungguh.. alhamdullah bjaya akhir nya atleast bkn lah last coz ramai lg runners yg kat blkg yg tido dlm hutan pun ada..

Roughly 4 ptg br lah kitaorg lunch kat pekan bera.. dr t.bera ke pekan ada lah dlm 55km.. Ptg 2 dila & meow blanja kitaorg lunch.. hihi.. dila managed post. 5 and meow manage post.9.. so murah rezeki lah diaorg 2 & rezeki kitaorg pun murah gak.. :) thanx dila, thanx meow.. bangga sggh coz d both girls in ur group dpt placing.. well lps mkn kita grk blk & sampai kl dlm kul 730pm..

For me its really new experienced & enjoy d trip & race very much.. learned a lot of new tips & getting know new friends.. SEMPOI.. :)

Bidor Half Marathon

2009-04-27T08:24:00.000-07:00

Btolak dr kl hr sab2 kul 4.30pm dgn zaki(team manager) & adai and sampai bidor kul 5.30pm utk bidor half marathon, x susah sgt sampai sini coz pekan dia kecik je terus pg lawat dewan muhibbah & we met 2 runners from kl ann & irina.. Well mlm 2 dinner ramai2 dgn azhar, shah, lee + ann & irina sambil lyn FA cup final.. lps makan jumpa all d cap ayam geng kat kedai mkn lain utk ambik bib and end up sambung minum lg sampai habis tgk selangor menang..!!

X jd overnite kat dwn instead overnite kat rmh kwn azhar, dkt dgn balai bomba bidor.. thanx 2 bro din 4 d hospility utk kitaorg.. pg kul 6.35 dah sampai dwn n runners pun dah ramai bangat.. sggh jap kat toilet tp x jd coz crowded so trs lpk kat blkg sekali dgn midon & bro mahadi & lain2.. b4 that sempat jumpa kak jenap(s'pore) & smbg2 dgn dia..

So mcm biasa bila race start, lari dr blkg je.. maklum lah hebat sgt.. sampai dpn 7E(dlm 200m) nmpak midon dah bdesup, td kata x lrt coz x ckp tido tp sekejap je dah buka lgkah seribu.. bila sampai main road(500m) ada lah 2 org runners ni main sergah2 lah kat member2 dia yg kat sbelah2.. kuat2 lak 2 lps 2 pakat gelak kuat2.. ahh.. tension + irritating btl lah, childish btl diaorg ni.. btl2 ganggu konsentrasi org nak cari pace + lari dgn aman je.. siutt!!

d 1st 5 kilo lari best je coz x struggle nak cari pace.. layan je bila lari kat ladang getah dgn aroma getah sekerap.. bila reached 10k tgk timin 56min.. fuhh hebat, biasa race 10k pun aku buat 60min je tp pg ni laju skt lak.. tp bila sampai 12k br rasa struggle skt bila naik bkt, lps 2 jumpa ramai top runners yg dah buat u turn + jumpa midon tgh bsiar2 mkn aingin :).. water station pun byk gak ada lah jumpa dlm 5 mgkn plus dgn 10k punya kot..

well d last 2k mcm biasa dah x larat & btl2 metal nak habis kan race.. mgkn lps ni kena trainin lbh kot eventhough mileage utk race ni +-24k and much better than just 5k mileage utk larian jmbtn KT hr 2.. so sampai finishing line dgn timin 2:07:30(139th) dah kira ok lah eventhough just shed off 2min je compare last race kat KT.. blh lah 2, memang level aku je 2 as d slowest chap ayam runners.. :) so mayb next race dpt trn lg lah dlm 2, 3 minit.. hopefully..

A ll Aboard..

lps race apa lg just miggle arounds dgn geng2 runners & offcoz photoshoot session mesti ada.. this time x bwk camera coz MIA kat rumah tp ramai lak runners yg bwk.. so tumpang2 je lah.. :) smpt gak lah sign up utk a few races kat both2 yg ada kat situ.. dlm penat2 pun main belasah je sign borang2 2.. so dlm 12.30pm lps hatar fadzly @ bus station, kitaorg sign off from bidor..
