This is der 3rd Pacemakers events i've join after der PM Network run on new year and der wild2 run in March...der Pacemakers Circuit run 1 (CR1) was organised as a benchmark for runners who have not sign for SCKLM or have not decided to run full or half marathon. furthermore, it is also to test runners' endurance, physically and mentally in preparation for the SCKLM..
the designated route is LG+carcosa; a 2.8km x 10 loops with some stairs to climb...i arrived at LG carpark around 6.30am n waiting for MPH...(my dad n rashidi did not join due to some personal commitments).
7.15am: the race was flagged off...i was thinking for an easy run since the total run was 28.8km...followed WKM and others...
Since the event was based on lap time, my lousy watch (a RM30 watch) does not provide me with lap time, instead, i used my old P99oi handphone which have the lap timing feature...so each lap passed, i have to push the lap button....even Andrew thought i was sms-ing at each lap...hehehe...
After 5 loops, i was struggle with my muscle cramps n this time, both legs...so, i took a different approach where i walk for 1 min and jog for 6 mins...
As the heat and fatigue increased, i have to overcome and determine to finished der race...i managed to overtook MPH twice...and the 2nd time i overtook him..MPH have already raised the white flag, citing heat and exhausted the main factor he DNF...
Almost 11pm...i finally completed 10 loops of CR1 with time of 3'46''40...have to work more on my muscle strenght and endurance...Peace!!
