Malakoff KL Run 2012 - 12Km @ Bukit Kiara Equestrian and Country Resort

Completed 11.63Km in 1h:30m:44s.
Date : 16-Dec-2012

This is my second times on Malakoff KL Run, last year wasn't a good one, and this year is consider better. 15 minutes before start, wanted go toilet, and as usual, it was full, and there were only 4 mobile toilet near the starting line, and few at the back, and few more at another car park. There was free "half" power bar for the runner, and after consumed, we should have more water. 
So, l'm looking for toilet along the run, and run into the SHELL petrol kiosk, no luck, as there is someone doing bigger business, and no choice, pee at the "longkang" ....

Overall, the first hill consider not too bad, since it is just starting, and the hill near the SHELL and the hill near the 2nd loop not easy.

Completed 21.30Km in 2h:54m:18s.

Powerman 2012 - 11.4Km @ Putrajaya

Completed 11.4Km at Putrajaya in 1:34.:56.

First time joining Powerman Duathlon, I'm joining the relay which Manual Chu run 11.4Km, started at 7:10am, while coming back around 8:40am, then Calvin Tan cycled 64Km, coming back around 11:15am, then I run for another 11.4Km, finished the whole race at 12:45pm.

This time I'm using the Garmin 210 to track my running, and the accuracy should be almost 99% as compare to the Android Endomondo.

The lining up on the elite run at Putrajaya, there are so many Elite Duathlon while little Relay.

The challenging was during the transition, you can't run or cycle while on transition area. There was also timing chip, and the race bib which we need to pass to the each other once we completed our course.

The learning must have a good running belt to hold bib which we can easily pass to each other.
Next year, we will plan to join the Spirit category which run for 5.5Km, cycle 32Km, and run another 5.5Km.

The finishing medal booth was located almost at the end, therefore some people did not know to collect their finishing medal.

Waited the lucky draw until the end, almost 10:30am. Not that lucky afterall.
