I'm answering my own query here.

I just got from Davis, the Suunto T3C costs RM620, that's without the footpod & he said that the footpod is very expensive. He also didn't give the price for Polar RS200SD, saying that I shud forget about Polar at the moment.

I'm not quite sure. Proly (& I'm guessing) it's about exclusive distributorship in the country. He's claiming that there's no disti in Malaysia, but who actually brought Polar products in to be sold in Fitness Concept & some bicycle shops ? At the moment it's proly better to purchase Polar from authorized outlets, but the price ... I guess I'ma stick to my Timex first la.

I also dunno about Polar la. But from the price U listed here, about RM900+ right ? Too much for me at the moment la. Maybe U can check the price for Suunto T3C plus the footpod. But judging from the wrist unit price alone, Davis is indeed selling at lower than market price.

Putrajaya night run is on Saturday la. Anybody going ? Maybe I'll run this one, to make up for the disappointment of not running the PACM NB.

Check out Pacesetters website. It's starting in front of Palace of Justice.

Anybody going for the Putrajaya Night Run this Saturday ? I'm seriously considering, after missing the PACM NB 15K, but if there's not too many ppl, dunno la....

During the Larian Bomba recently, the bomba trainees was running the 10K in Pallas Jazz & Badminton Masters.

I'm not coming for the nite run. Confirmed edi.

I went to check on Polar HRM this afternoon when I was at Carrefour Wangsa Maju. I went to the Fitness Concept & asked the person there to check 2 models for me, the RS200SD & RS300x. Both models, including RS300xSD is not in stock, even at their warehouse. Maybe those interested can check other outlets, like bike shops....

I missed last year's run, & looks like I'ma miss this year's too coz I'll be away on holiday in Kuching on that day. The starting point is just 2 blocks away from my office.

Anybody going for this weekend's Setia Alam Half Marathon ? I'm doing the 10K...

I just came back from Klang Pacers office.. phew.. It turned out to be, just next to where I used to live, in Tmn Sri Andalas, Klang...

They sell New Balance products in the office as well...

C y'all this Sunday...

Shud be. I dun recall any hills there, except for a few overhead bridges & elevated exchanges...

Half ? Hmm... I think since this year's my first year entering competition, I'ma focus on 10-15K first. But I'd really like to run half plus a marathon, at least once in my life la..

I've registered for SCKLM & Siemens. I'ma go for KOTR as well. Men's Health I can't go coz I'll be in Kuching, the McD run clashes with my ministry's sports carnival. But if there's no runner for the 10K event (during the sports carnival), I'ma go for the McD run as well...

I thought in Guardian also selling same price ?

Ooo.. really ah ? I never take those gels BTW. Only run 10K-15K, no need gel one...

I'ma collect my race kit 2moro, can't make it today la...

Just collected my race kit this afternoon, somehow they gave me the vest instead of the tshirt, I'ma wear that vest tomorrow. My number is F339. C U guys tomorrow, good luck.

I was late to the start, I arrived just after they flagged off the half mara runners. I got to the start just in time & the gun went off just as I was tying my shoelaces !! Anyway, I finished in 1:05.55. I guess this was better than my Larian Bomba (10K@1:04) & I've improved from 6.24/km to 5:59/km pace. Well, I hope I can break 1 hr during SCKLM.

Well, if I can maintain this kinda pace, I'ma break 1 hr for 10K la. I think for the SCKLM, the 10K route will be like Larian Bomba... Rolling route la...

Yesterday I suffered cramps on my right calf for the 1st time since I took up running. Normally it would happen after I've completed my runs, but yesterday it happened during my run (approx. KM5 out of 12KM). I continued anyway & after a while it didn't hurt so much. But I felt uncomfortable, twas like running on one leg. & my case is a little bit different from metalfreak's: I only suffered cramps on my right calf.

During Larian Bomba in May I actually got to Dataran quite late but still managed to park just behind the Kelab Selangor. But then, for SCKLM, there's gonna be 5 times more ppl & the marathon starts at 5. So for the 10Kers, I guess it's gonna be virtually impossible to get a parking near Dataran, as we're gonna be the last to start. Right now I'm thinking : Bank Negara or Dayabumi, or even Masjid Negara.

On another note : I was in Midvalley on Sunday & there was a Garmin booth. I saw Garmin Forerunner 50 selling for RM999, with everything included. It was actually a good-looking watch, better than Polar. I mean, it didn't look like a sports watch. According to the guy, the price was for that day only. There was also a Forerunner 405, selling for RM1570.

I also went to Fitness Concept, where they do have stock for RS200SD, selling for RM965. Then there's a RM100 discount voucher, so it's RM865. The promo is until 3rd July.
