Ran the Nike Run KL. Same complaint as others.

Starting line too jammed. I think there was batches?
During the run, oh gawd the couples please hold your hand on the left. I'm fine with couples walking together in a run but on the left please
Ending, so jammed with people sweaty all over. And the mud! I had to throw my shoes as it was completely filled with mud inside out.

Anyways anyone know where to see the D-tag time? First time running and I wanted to know my tag time

is it on promo?..

I don't know. They package it in such. RM68 for that set in the picture (with free T'Shirt).

As for the Gel,
RM7 each (buy 6 free 1) - expiry March/May y13
RM7 each (buy 5 free 1) - expiry Jan y13

I know this isn't the right place to post this, but if you feel like doing charity & helping the needy, at the same time getting yourself a tax-deductible and authentic Reebok Polo T, then this is the right time to do so! The polo shirts have to be returned to HOPE Malaysia by the end of next week if there are still no buyers, so please help spread the news even if you are not interested.

Anyway, here's the link if you would like more info:

In the instructions, they say attire is official singlet. I wonder is it a must. If not, then I'll wear my own shirt.

Glad you managed to buy the last pants

oic. then i tink the price not much different. just that there's a free t-shirt for the whole package. still kinda worth it, considering that a single FM would probably need 5 gel and 2/3 performance bar.

not mandatory. no worry.

If U read thru race instructions for all the races in Malaysia, 99% of the time they will say U have to wear the official vest. 99% of the time they dun dare enforce this. Only 1% (or rather, only one) of the race actually was smart enuff to print the race number on the race vest so that ppl will have to wear it no matter what. & tht one race is Nike 10K.

Thanks. I'll wear my usual shirt then. Size M singlet too sexy for me

Agree agree !

Got my Putrajaya Night Mara vest as well. Size XS.
Doing 10K only, wanna rest my kaki a bit. Will also eat a Powerbar this time, to see if they help me in my timing.
Only had Powerbar during SCKLM 21k.

How does it works and where to get it ? Will get one if it will improve the performance for upcoming PBIM

I used to enjoy the fun of overtaking in these type of runs but I got exhausted of overtaking by the time I hit the 4km mark. I was like "wth, only 4km?" Zigzag-ing and speeding up and down slopes to overtake really takes a toll.

But wow, this is the first time I got really annoyed with walkers in the middle of the running route. I wanted to just knock them down or push whoever that is blocking my path aside. Slow runners I can bear with it but those who suddenly stop in the middle are really scary because at times, it is difficult to stop my 6ft 95kg body from trampling over them.

Overall, not really happy with my timing of 1'14'10 (Nike+) Maybe it should be quicker by a minute or two as I started my timer early. Wanted to go below 1'10'00 but already half expected it because of the number of participants. Waiting to see the chip time.

My body experienced the most discomfort in this race as I didn't do a good warmup and pretty cooldown waiting for the race to start. Calves were tight and also experienced some chest discomfort. Had to walk for couple of minutes and few cups of drinks to slowdown heartrate before it passes and good to go again.


Anyways, anyone letting go of their PNM 10k bib/kit?

hi guys.. was wondering how do you use the timing chip for PNM ? its a round button instead of the normal d-tag attached to your running bib used in other event.. sorry for the noob question

Actually the round thingy is the normal thing, the bib with D-tag is quite new in Malaysia, but it's catching up fast... just tie the thingy on Ur shoes la...

@RedShirt

You are doing great judging from your body weight!

Curious, how often do you train? And for how long/distance?

WeRunKL result is out ..

Thank you for your encouragement.

Outdoor runs, I usually just run once a week on Sunday mornings in Kiara Park for roughly 7km plus (on good days) and on not so good days, I only run about 5km plus. Nothing special, just wake up, light warm up and run.
Well normally for race days, I do have some food before I run but when I go for my usual Sunday morning runs, I usually run on an empty stomach and I wondering if you guys also do that on training days ?

Thinking of incorporating another day for running, probably some interval training in KLCC park since my office is just a stone throw away. I am seriously setting under 1hr for 10km runs as my main objective. Wondering how much further my body can take (Men's Health Night Run was the furthest distance I have ever ran so far). Terribly upset that I was not able to collect the finisher's medal in MHNR because I was too slow.

Not sure if it helps my running progress but I am more of a gym go-er, mostly dealing with weights on 3 out of the 5 weekdays but only one day for leg workouts. Sometimes I do some running on treadmill on special circumstances.

Been out of sync due to some silly injuries, hampering my running progress (broke my foot in December and tore something in July). Having to recover all the small gains I made over and over again is so frustrating!
Was hyped up to go the distance with my maiden HM by joining PJ HM but got injured due to another small silly mishap.

U r doing good in this run base on ur body weight. Especially in this clouded situation, we need to run zig zag. There r lots more runing event coming up. Just prepare ur self to new target, improve a little bit more for the upcoming event. Cheers!
