Last year, was it similar?
As in they opened up for college kids to register first before opening registration to others.

Personally, I don't fancy it.
Just collected my KOTR shirt this morning. Nothing special about it too.

Btw guys, what is LSD ?

Still cannot load the page, even when using office (corporate) line.

Oh. So thats why those people I have seen doing, running on a slow pace.
I am planning to run HM for the first time during the PJ Half Marathon later this month, I will try this.

However, I have registered for both PJ HM and Solomon X-Trail run which are on the same day. No doubt HM will be challenging but X-Trail run is more...fun?

Finally the site has eased up and registered and got my confirmation email.

Noticed that a lot of people complained about ipay88 so I used a different payment method and was directed to mobile88 (CIMB FPX transfer). Not sure if they are the same but it was smooth.

I think I ran much better during this KOTR than any other 10km runs I did previously but my timing is still roughly the same. Previously I had to slow down and walk to rest but this time, I did not walk at all except for just a few seconds to get a drink.

Will they be displaying the chip time for KOTR ?

Thanks man.

Although I am not a fast nor experienced runner, I enjoy starting from way at the back because I find it very motivating to overtake people in front as they slowed down from their initial "sprint". I just kept a consistent pace and watch myself overtaking them groups by groups. "one more group, just one more group" and before I know it, I am targeting the next group ahead.

And I tell myself, I may not be the fastest but I am faster by this many and just kept on going,

Chip time 01:14:56.52
Gun time 01:17:32.27

Main target is to go below 1hr for 10km.

Will be missing out because of injury.
Just did an xray scan and doctor suggested that I rest for few weeks.

Man, I was so pumped to see how well I fare in my first ever HM as well.

After giving IMU, BarBag, Solomon/PJ Half a miss due to injury, finally I think I have recovered enough and will start by going for some Pink Charity Run in Klang this Sunday. So excited!

Overslept and missed the Pink Charity Run over the weekend. Or maybe my mind and body refuse to wear the pink singlet that makes me look like a giant cotton candy. Or maybe I just need a reliable alarm clock. I am so not used to waking up <6am.

By the way, anyone knows where I can go and buy shoe laces ? Just plain ones for sport shoes.

Yeah, I tend to sleep late frequently on weekdays so on weekends, my body really cannot tolerate it anymore and I slept through few hours with my alarm has been ringing non-stop (no snooze function).

Haha, I just bought a new pair of running shoes but I don't like the shoe lace colour, so I am looking for a place that sells them, so I could customize my shoes a bit.

Ahaha, it happens a lot to me too. The night before the race, I would start packing stuff and getting stuff ready and after doing that, I cannot sleep!


The last push to the finishing line, my mind goes blank and the only thing I remember before crossing the finishing line is to stop the timer on my phone (endomondo, nike+).
Ended up, if I can find a picture of myself crossing the finishing line, I look horrible.

What? Then the wristband is for nothing?

My case is when I get chicked.
Although there are a lot of fast running girls but I try not to get chicked too often whenever I could help it.

I know about the wristband.
What I meant was if it is first come first serve, then why do we need to have the wristband? It is not like if I have a wristband, I am confirmed a finisher's shirt. To recognize participants since the bib = the shirt so people joining the race will have to wear the Nike tee.

Maybe wristband because they cannot use a marker pen to cross out the bib on our running tee?

Good thing Nike Run is in the evening, no way of oversleeping this one.

No worries, the people at the counter were very helpful and explained to me everything in the goodie bag including the purpose of the wristband without me even asking.
I knew about it before collecting my race kit by checking online to know what I am suppose to receive so that when I go and collect my goodie bag, nothing is left out. I am quite kiasu that way.

Oh! I didn't notice that the numbers are different.

But I could not find any useful information about the High Miler badge though. Anyone here has that badge?

Yeah lor, I asked everyone one about it. Either they say they don't know or they say it is already over.
I run with my pouch.

Ahaha, same here.

I went to KLCC park to break in my new pair of shoes. Not sure if is a placebo effect, but seeing my new records in my Nike Running app sure made me felt good.

Old shoes 5.43km 0.41.03 7.33/km @ Kiara Park Lunarglide
New shoes 5.37km 0.32.40 6.04/km @ KLCC Park Lunarglide4

Main objective for me is 10km under 1.10.00 for Nike Run'12 and hopefully below 1 hour mark by end of the year.

Ahaha. Given that I ran KLCC park yesterday and Kiara Park on Sunday, I am going to rest until Nike Run on Saturday and go FULL POWAARR there.

From Lunarglide ver.1 to Lunarglide ver.4, sure powderful la.

It is really all in the mind. I recently heard that from my friend that my ex is running in Nike Run as well. I intend to NOT lose to her in terms of timing because of some egoistic pride within me, which I know is stupid but if it fires up my pace, motivation and determination as such, GAME ON!

I use Endomondo Pro and Nike+ on my Android but I don't think it shows elevation. Only RunKeeper can do that?

Just received a SMS saying that the Melaka Heritage Run has been cancelled.
I love running at different new places and was really looking forward to that.

First time I bought a pair of shorts from Nike, when I reached home, dafak, no pockets.
Which World of Sports? The Curve?

Rest.

Geli lor.
