Armed with Phiten insole.. Started t day not ad early as SCKLIM.. after subuh at home..then shottt to Dataran Merdeka.. Parked at Padang Merbok n warming up while walking to dataran.. having quite a time to find t public toilet which is soo gud!
But n unpleasent scene happened.. aiyak..
then straight do the aerobik warm-up.. rasa banyak ruang jika dibandingkan semasa SCKLM.. and masa warming up the music all so happening! n dance waka waka! hihi
So the run start... penuh dengan bukit dan bukau.. i dont like towalk while going uphill..coz it will take a lot more time n effort.. so i ran.. after 5-6 km then only cum to a flat road.. after that its a woer walking n running combo.. My pace:

Suprisingly.. my right ft no pain at alll!! so happy! coz im not wearing the ankle guard n im wearing phiten insole!
if not it will be so painful n swollen..
Masa Siemen run ni ada lebih masa tok bergambar2 dan berkenalan with all the CAR runner..
Although tak dapat any medal coz its only for top 200 i think..im Happy! n happy that the start of the day yg malas im able to burn 1,034 kalori!

Race Report-Centro Run 11/7/2010

Centro run prep paliiinnnng best n senang coz depan umah ajerr.. As usual i hv my beloved hub yg suke lekat2 nombor n being very detailllll w every-inch of t prep..Thx hun..
Im already scared my right foot will give me trouble so warm up habis2 punyer!
First round til 5 km maintain n after that my right foot already paining... 

Saya pakai ankle guard dgn ingatan ia bleh mengurangkan sakit tapi actually menyebabkan lagi sakitnye.. Rasa nak bukak kasut n bukak je ankle guardtu tp apakan daya.. So meneruskan la terus larian.. Tapi dah terpk nak gave up after first round of 6 km.. Tapi kalu gaveup nanti takde goodies etc so memaksakan diri gak power walk till finish.. My time seminit lagi nak 2 jam for 12km w very swollen n painful right foot.. 

Bukak2 kasut bengkakkkk n merahhh n berazam taknak pakai lagi ankle guard yg merupakan penyumbang utama pd kesakitan! Learn my lesson the hard way! After that got t antalgic gait n gota iced it.. Few days batu kurang sakit..
Pasal track plak very dusty! No scenery no nice trees or grass to look to.. The smell also not so nice coz running thro tempat pembuangan sampah n also very polluted Klang river..

The police officer very gud n also t volunteer r great ! Just that t water station is not place strategically but not a prob for me since i like to bring my own water bottle. All in all happy to be able to run an event just nearby my neighboorhood.

Race Report SCKLIM (tooo delayed) haha

My first experience for 10km for this year..
Gosh.. mana nak mula??
ngantok aaa...
tido dulu bleh??

Well, as usual.. malam sebelum nya tdo ayam2 jerk..
Woke up early like 3 lebey.. n start our day slowly.. tinggal mandi n
sarong jerk..huhu
Then kete buat hal.. tukar kete.. dah la nerbous.. kete plak
menerbouskan lagi..kang bonti tengah jalan mau nangis tak
berlagu..huhu.. dont play-play.. Bile tuko kete kene isi minyak since
tak plan to bw tat car..
Sampai kat kl berdesup jerrk... banyak kete di jalanan nampak nyer..
guaratee ni nak p lari gaks.. or baru balik disko! (pardon for my
detailllllll info)

Then sampai2 sana.. nak masuk simpang car park padang merbok leh
reverse balik coz tak pasti betoi ke tak coz that sign board ditutupi
oleh the dedaun2 pokok yg berjuntai2.. marah kat dedaun pepagi dalam
ati.. ni DBKL tak buat keje! ( nerbous mode!) hahaa

Dah siap park rerehat jap dlm 15 min since soo early like 4
lebey..pastu mulakan ceremony tok panaskan badan dengan melulur dengan
minyak panas... but the day was so cold! dah gerimis skit2 waktu
tu..aiyak.. kaki tido lagi la..hihi      Then jalan pelan2 ke
dataran...waktu ni gerimis semakin lebat n sebuk cari tempat
berteduh.. At t same time im feeling my right ft exactly at midfoot
dah start tak sedap.. Saw sharafi said gudluck to him..masa tu otw to
toi-toi so canot lama2..then saw kak jenap from afar jer..she's a
superstar! hasrat nak berjumpa Singapore Blade Runner n OneArmRunner
tak kesampaian.. mayb better luck next time.. Then round2 waiting2
stretch2.. jalan2 ke masjid jamek for Subuh prayer.. (hv to find the
full thigh for abg la easy for him).. then jalan2 lagi.. stretching
dah tak tahu bapa kali dah pun tapi sakit kat tapak kaki kanan takder
perkembangan yg bagus.. chatted with a runner name leny.. then dah
menunggu kat tetengah jalan.. so lama rasanyer menunggu..haha

Start2 run jer.. tak sampai 1 km tapak kaki rasa sakit!! menci menci..
but try deviate the attention to the song.. btw, i feel i cannot run
without the song in my ears.. haha.. n lagu sedap2 plak so im
karaokeing while running to ease the pain of my right ft.. told mysef
let see how thing goes.. takkan cepat sangat nak stop running.. tak
berpeluh pun lagi..haha.. masa larian harem kat SJ pun dapat run for
7k with one minute walking.. so cuber gak lari.. n Thanks to Mei coz
say hi to me n run trus after that..it make me feel that i wana finish
the race more! not that i can follow her pace..huhu...i feel semua
orang kuat lari coz makin banyak orang memotong... but then later
around at 3km nampak more makin slow a.k.a pancit n me continously
karaoke-ing while running..bare in mind my right ft constantly in pain
each time it touch the road.. only one thing i pray.. pleaseeeee dont
let it give rise to knee pain or calf pain or hip pain... if that
happen mmg cannot run anymore.. i should give thank to my ankle guard
which i bought like 3 years back which i use it when im oncall.. coz
when im oncall i hv to walk/run alot till my ankle paining.. that was
those days.. n it seem my right leg ni manja lebih dari left leg..

Then saw the 1st water station.. my Goodness! ramainyerr orang! i
thought someone selling something! hihi and then ada siap toilet lagi
n people actually go to the loo! haha.. masa ni feel like the road is
jus for me! then run2.. til 5km.. and after that have to climb so have
to walking-running berganti2.. then after that my aim just to finish
the race.. when walking the right ft pain worsen.. but if i continue
running im nearly breathless.. so either way its not comforting !
haha... im suprised that my leg muscle did not cramp abit! gosh! feel
like a true runner already! hahaha.. im actually so afraid to be stop
by any medical staff if they saw me limping or what.. so did my best
to have a normal gait! Now i know no need to worry about that..

My last sprint from the junction depan dataran.. saw kadok n thanks for t pix!
after that..finish all my water in my bottle n nak air.. but the crowd
is sooo...tak amik air pun... amik medal then terus terduduk! Lily
said hi! n thanks!  tapak kaki macam kene cucuk jarum setiap kali
pijak.. rehat for awhile...dari duduk ke berdiri rasa berpinar jap
mata..macam all t view become yellow! hihi then snap2 abit then go
back..  walking to the car also is like another marathon! haha
okay.. that all i can remember! Thanks all for t lovely experience..
and to hub thanks coz amikkan air.... After that mandi minyak urut
yang free dia bagi tu.. best la! very minty! n become cool when windy!
i got 3! :P
