Hi guys,

Need some help/advice.

Anyone here registered for any running event organized by
Asia Tourism Alliance?

Event name : ATA Kuala Lumpur Marathon 2017. It was renamed to amMetlife kl marathon , rescheduled to 10septeber. But not Its called selangor marathon 2017, recheduled again to 15october.

This event has been rescheduled 2 times n not a single time I receive email notification of the reshedule.

My issue is ive another event on that date.but it's not my fault. I just inquiry them on their FB page .but from what I previously read,some peeps comments have been deleted. Which is wow
.as for now I'll just wait n see their response.

What do u guys think? Any others with the same fate.tq

Cheers

😐

Keep your finger cross !
It will change date again again and again!

Best advice: get refund if possible

Don't waste time with this organizer, who well known in scamming runners & syok sendiri on the run event that happened!

If I would want to get a sub-4 FM, what would be the strategy? I usually conserve energy during the 1st half, and run faster during the 2nd, but a lot of ppl recommend the other way round.

sigh any other victims here. sigh

p/s upcoming : Larian Sukan Sea. just for the sea games spirit

Many of us joining this cheap run!

Join...you will get to see the elite members of LYN Runners in action, it will be LYNR 2017 gathering run

im a turtle bro. can only run pace 6+

that sounds fast...this is a get together run, so we are all running around that pace or even slower

what sort of turtle run @ pace 6? insulting la

is it standard? all my friend run pace 5. im the slowest. thats why i thought pace 6 is turtle pace

mine 8. im snail.

just train bro. i start early this year with pace 10. now aiming for flat pace 6

As far as I was told and read in the internet, running a negative split is recommended which is what you are currently doing. Most elite runners tend to run negative splits.

I would recommend to add some surges in your long run (perhaps within the last 25 % of your run) when you are starting to tire. My normal surge routine would be to run 1 min fast-5 min slow and repeat up to 5 times. If you are more advanced, you can try like 2 min fast-4 min slow. Fast in my case would be to run at tempo interval pace (10 K pace).

My 2 cents

Raining season is back. I usually do my training runs in the morning before work. Any experience and recommendations of a good and breathable raincoat/jacket? Just to keep the upper body dry.

I think uniqlo sell some not bad quality waterproof jacket .. price about RM1XX ..

1) I can't seem to view my msg on their fb page anymore. + i can't even comment anymoore, and it looks like im Blocked camni pun ada........
shame on u Asia Tourism Alliance.........

2) come to think about it, i just come out of retirement of FB just to comment on their page...I even didn't rant or say rude words

3) just wanna find anyone else with the same faith & see what we can do with these errant organizers. no matter what excuse they have,they should come clean. not avoid or behave like scammers
