Watergate 16hrs

Last weekend i had the opportunity to join watergate 16hrs event....the format of the event is runners should complete as many loop as they can (5km per loop) and at least a minimum of 10loops to qualified as finisher within 16hrs.

Approximately 270 runners registered from all over Malaysia and also overseas such Singapore, UK, India and many more.



As me myself i arrived around 530pm and directly took the race kit and find a spot for tent. There i meet new friends from Kuala Kangsar , Ampang and also Bangi who also join the race. Most of us are 1st timers in this event.





Around 745pm race manager brief us on race formats and at 800pm we flagged off.







I ran for 4 loops and stop for supper around 1130pm...the food was nice...nasi with ayam goreng berempah plus kari n sambal belacan some more...feeling full so i plan to just leisure walk on my 5th loop and start running back on the 6th loop onwards until 8th loop. I end my 8th loop around 430pm and decided to take shower and change to dry clothes and have a rest for a while. Around 530pm i continued my 9th loop and stop again for subuh prayer and finally complete my run at 915am with a total of 11 loops.





Overall i find this event as one of the best...new experience for me where i met amazing people...they are very determine, strong, supportive and inspiring...its not an easy task to be running at night till the day after sleepless, tired n with all the blister, soreness and all kinds of pain ... to set ur mind to keep going to the very last hours...real runners is not about a person accomplishment only but to be able to inspire and motivates others to keep going through days n nights, rain or shine...congrats to all of the runners, supporters and crews ...you're the best

My Opening Run for 2016

Holaaaa...hari ini Emily managed to complete my 1st trail run of the year ..Compressport Trail Run. Macam biasa route MAEPS ni mmg killer ...bukit2 pun sgt killer...dah macam nak jadi Ju-On pun ada dah tadi...Flag off jam 7pagi ...terus masuk route trail dan nak habaq kt uolls mmg jumpa bukit je lah 2/3 larian ni...At km4...tetiba rasa dizzy sgt2 dizzy...otak ni dh kata berhenti je lah...shld i stop here or continue..mata mcm dh nk kabur...so i stop for a while kt bukit km4 n have a rest sekejap...the mistake was i didnt load any food before run...dah lah awal pagi flush out segala dlm badan ni...dengan my homemade energy bar tertinggal....memang padan muka..but luckily jumpa juga satu energy gel kt dalam pouch .. so i consume half of it.. mata dh mcm ok clear...so i decide to continue the run ....lari jelah dengan mode santai sambil menikmati view ...naik bukit mmg jalan je lah ...hamstring dh mula rasa stress ...selang seli dgn power walk ....lari2 anak je biler kt bukit...


Ni masa turun bukit lepas km4 , masa ni sleeping chow tak sempat photobomb sbb camera pki counter..hahaha..sambil2 tu sempat la sembang2 dgn otai sleeping chow on running matters...sambil berpacing each other until ditinggalkan jauh oleh otai ni selepas pendakian tangga yang sangatlah mencabar


Tangga yg sgt tough

Larian diteruskan walaupun xdelah berlari sgt byk jalan je pun, route larian melalui trail hutan, laluan traktor kelapa sawit sehinggalah kawasan padang ragut kuda.

Nak jadi cerita lagi 2km tetiba gastronemius ku cramped perghhh..maha hebat sakitnya dua2 plak tu..nasib baik ada crew and abg runner yg tlg at that time ..maka slow run and walk je lah for the last 2km..inilah akibat kalau skip training ...apapun the event was well-organized, adequate water station with supportive crews...Sesiapa belum pernah try route MAEPS ni shld try once ...a good training ground as well...4star for this event.
