Finished 16th (Open Female Category) in 36minutes


Details of my run (with map, distance, altitude, pace etc), please refer here (via endomondo)

Congratulations & kudos to the organiser, Da-Bayou (a voluntary group, in case you're wondering), comprised of UNITEN Preparatory Program for Excellent Students (PPES 2011/12) students, UNITEN, volunteers, sponsors and all the participants.

My sister and I had so much fun during the run.

I think it probably has something to do with the medal. Tehehe...

I bought a new pair of training shoes last month.
So, okay, I guess I wasn't thinking straight when I bought the shoes. Haha.

After trying like my 5th pair, I decided to google for running shoes reviews (via my mobile, and yes, at the store).
*Note: Still thinking straight at the moment.

"Do you have Nike LunarGlide in store?" I asked the salesgirl (thank you fellow runners for the online review!)

"Sorry, out of stock..  Just a few days ago.." And she was saying something about calling the other stores and check if they have them in stock.

I wasn't paying attention, thinking about my meeting the next morning and how it's almost impossible to go to the other stores etc.
*Note: Slowly, the anxiousness and laziness kicked-in. Thinking somewhat straight?

So after trying another 5 pair of shoes, I decided to give Adizero Training Shoes a try.
I walked around the store. Enjoying how the shoes fit my feet well.

RM 299.
*Note: Definitely not thinking straight.


You see, I love running. So training shoes for running is a really bad idea.
Tell that to my aching feet when I went for a run earlier.
It was less than 1km and I felt my toes aching. I think it has something to do with the fact that most Adidas shoes has this tapered front - which is not suitable for me.

So I gave the shoes to my sister.

"I am sorry it didn't work out, Adizero.."
