Cheras,

Organizer: PAS,

this is the most kan cheong and suffer run in my life, they give only 20 medals for men open,15 medals for under 18 and 10 medals for veteran, when flag off all the mens pia like no tomorrow, run like hell loose, make me kia su, scare of losing the medals, i turbo kau kau lat in the start, try to potong as many as possible, i know i was running very fast but not sure my pace, untill i meet ronnie buntut, i told myself die lo, run too fast in the start, as i predict i suffer stomach cramp about half way, have to walk to let the pain go away, by that time i was over take by cm, then kelvin come, pacing with him about few minutes, then i jog slow coz the stomach pain, when not so pain try to run at my comfortable pace, keep looking back to see if got men open runner come or not, until the last 200 m, turbo to the finish line, while near finishing line saw chen run back to pacing with his wife, where to find such good husband? saw ronnie, lai and cm at finishing line cheer for me, thanks guys,

place=16
timing=33m13s,

meet many runners i never meet before,
first time had to go on stage to take medal,
so kan cheong but happy, after medal giving ceremony, we had our family photos, we went to had breakfast before go home. overall was a good race, very well organize race as well,

today is my first time wearing my asic cumulus 7, very comfort and cushioning shoe, like running on clouds, good for long distance, its abit hot on the price, but for satisfaction running its worth it, hopefully will had new PR for putrajaya run next week with new shoe....

my beloved dog dog 22 aug 2006

today afternoon get phone call from my dad, say the dog dog (the dog name) has pass away this morning in clinic, heart felt so pain, as i cant do anything, cant even pamper her for last time, i was hoping i could pamper her again when i come back this september, may her soul rest well...
she been with our family quite sometimes, its like part of our family, still can remember her crazy and funnny atitude, i like to play with her when i go back miri, most of the times i like to bully her, then her mom will come to rescue, guess her mom will be very sad of losing her daughter...
i try to control my tears in office when received the news, but i cry out when at home writing this blog, only tears told me how much i love my dog dog, looking back, everytime i come back miri she remember me, wanted me to pamper her, i just dint spend much time with her...
everyone in life come and goes, only memories remains, the memories make us remember them, only when they are gone then only u know how much they mean to u, by that time its too late, u cant spend time with them anymore, only tears told u how much they meant to u, told u how much u regret dint spend every moment u had with them, told u dint appreciate them when they r still there...
for me there is nothing important than spending every moment with someone i love very much...

Penang Bridge Run

1:45am-only catch 1 hour sleep, then wake up to prepare myself, fetch my bro, fei and his girl friend to the car park near the bridge.

3am-reach there, still early so sit by the road side, chat with my bro, while looking at all those school boys and girls, half marathon start at 5:30am le...

4am-the full marathon start, cheering for those runners

5am-start to masuk kandang kambing, walk through housing area to the starting point.

5:30am-before reach the starting point already hear the starting sound went off, quickly press my watch timing, and start running at slow pace about 6:30mins/km with my bro. my bro had bad habits he like to over took people, i told him to slow down because the run still long, 22.3km not 10km like we run in pj half. the feeling so nice when reach the bridge, the air breeze... so cold... when near the middle of the bridge i keep looking to the other side of bridge for the full marathon runner. i saw mr. tey, i shout at him and wave at him... its fun when meet friends during the run... after the 1st water station feel want to pee, but where the hell to find tree on the bridge? so tahan until reach the 2nd water station,

about 1 hours 10 mins we reach the 2nd water station, pull out our power gel, tear, and suck it! then have 2 cups of drink. my bro go a head while i go find tree... know la cannot tahan lia... after release fast fast pick u speed and catch up with my bro. after the big u turn, its really challenging, road was incline and steer to the left, with no hill training, now i am suffering... knee also start to pain... about 13 km had to ask the nurse to give me some ice on my knee. my bro already pickup very far... i have to jog slowly and walk if pain...coz wan reserve for last run...

3rd water station, drink one bottle of mineral water, jog and walk, enjoy the sea breeze and scenery on the bridge, not everyday u can do this on penang bridge le! then jam myself with those student runners. all come jalan jalan one, there is one runner i very piss off, he wanted to over took me but he make stupid sound using his touge, something like 'shss' scare me, somemore he run very slow, after he over took me he was block by the student, so he make those f%*^ sound again, i so damn piss off, turn on my turbo and smoke him! feel so great after let him smell my a#$ ...

near last 2km meet up with my bro, he already puncit... haha... so i told him to walk with me, then last 1 km we jog la... last 1km jog slowly, but when knowing its near finishing line we run together, last 500m pia head to head with my bro to the finishing line,run with all my turbo!, we manage to overtook one runner before reach the finishing line. guess the runner must be piss off. we collect our medal and cert, without looking back we fast fast head to collect our goodies bag...meet up with ronnie and gangs. then saw Ah grace coming so chat with her, our timing 2hours 24mins 35s, this is my second blow out, coz the seremban half i did 2hours 30mins ++, worse than the ipoh half 2hours 19 mins, putra half must piat kau kau lat...

somemore Ah Grace improve very well her timing better than mine 2hours 17mins 10s!
