KLCC Run

This unofficial challenge has attracted lots of strong runners to come and compete.
It all started from a Facebook post by Ronnie See, Raja Bukit challenging Raja Tangga for 5 loops of KLCC Park. Within hours, more and more strong runners responded to that post.
An evening competition which was supposed to be a 2 men fight, turned out to be such a huge crowd. We even had Mr Tey and Mr Chan who came along to be our event photographer. =)

5 loops = 6.5km
Yip was the champion, followed by Richard, and I finished 3rd. 

23.59 - Yip Weng Tak
24.54 - De Runner (Richard Habeya)
25.34 - Chan Jun Shen
26.14 - Jothpal Singh
26.19 - Ronnie See - PB
26.51 - Daniel Tan - PB
29.54 - Loh Wing Keen
32.53 - Azrul
35.00 - Kelvin Yew
39.50 - Weng Woo - PB

During the holiday, seeing all the running event updates made me feel so jealous. I can only participate ONE event next month. For this one event, I have to thank Commander Khairil for giving me the chance to prove myself. I can't do early registration for any event coz my training schedule will be published last minute, so I can't plan for myself. Throughout my life, I've never ever gotten any early bird registration fees. Yes, NEVER. As for now, my registration for Desaru is still pending. I don't even know if I'm allowed to race for Desaru. 

My last day at home, going back to Lumut Naval Base tmrw. 
I'm bringing back 3 running shoes including my New Newton. I won the Lucky Draw after buying this Newton shoes, so I believe this shoes will bring me good luck for my future races =) The next lucky draw will be end of this month.I spent RM 359 on the Newton, and I won a Descente sports bag worth RM 249. If I win another Lucky Draw next month, this shoes is gonna be free of charge already.
