Which one is better? Running on open roads or treadmills?

I got dizzy while running on treadmills. rclxub.gif

As ccube said, the feel is indeed different. I feel road is more challenging with humidity, uneven surface etc., while mills is very convenient and has perfect surface.

Think if you got access for both, you can alternate. nod.gif

Budget hotel ? AFAIK, there's no budget hotel in Putrajaya or Cyberjaya. Maybe U can check out in Puchong...
*
There's couple of them in Sri Kembangan like the one that axlkey pointed out.
However, many of them located in areas with sketchy surrounding... unsure.gif

Meanwhile, I'll be running in 10k (nubcakes la saya blush.gif ). laugh.gif

Do we all agreed to assemble at P2 parking zone?
*
Oooh, I didn't see that. I missed couple of pages lately. doh.gif
Meanwhile, I most probably will park at MMU since I got something to attend there before the run.
With that, I guess I'm not able to gather at the starting point. So, if you see my bib - M12759 - below, just say hi. nod.gif

Nowadays it tends to rain pretty late in the afternoon in Cyberjaya/Putrajaya, around 5 pm like that. But then again, although Cyberjaya & Putrajaya basically in the same zone, sometimes if it rains in Putrajaya, it's sunshiny day in Cyberjaya...  tongue.gif

Agree on that. The weather can be totally opposite even though they next to each other.

any 10k runners here tracked the total distance for the Energizer Race? My Garmin seems to indicate it's about 9.5K only.

My Nike+ SportBand also indicates 9.52km. Though mine was not accurate but since your Garmin says so... hmm.gif

i'll never know my exact finishing time as the results shows that i DNF. but oh well...its ok. as long as i know i made it back to the finishing line where my frens were cheering for me...felt proud of myself for completing the run despite the punishing heat beginning till the end of the run.

was the last female runner btw. being trailed by ambulance and 2 police bikes. i think i completed it in abt 7 hrs 40 mins.  rclxub.gif

What important is that you finished it. You go, girl! *high 5* thumbup.gif

Oh, I just remembered. Did anybody encountered this with their bib number? The behind almost gone when I finished the run. blink.gif
Good thing I wear that shirt solely for running and also, a very nice marking to remind me where I should put bib number during any event. laugh.gif

Yes BodyGlide or SportShield will stop chafing at any part of your body.  2XU compression wont guarantee there is no chafing but some of my customers told me it does help.  2XU main purpose is control muscle movement during run hence reduce the production of lactic acid, and also post race muscle fatigue recovery.

I personally felt that SportShield is better and last longer.  Your sweat doesnt wash it away.  You gotta wash it with soap during your shower.  My Tri customer told me it can last at least 13+hrs

Interesting. Will consider SportShield for the next run. hmm.gif

I only got a small four spots that have tis prob. (the pin area)... Thank God when i have my extreme short shower from bomba.. it didn't make it worse.
my BIB still look ok despite w/o bib holder  biggrin.gif

Will the stain goes away? I will check today after laundry  biggrin.gif

Alright, let me know how is it. laugh.gif
