RiverJungle Mrarathon 2015 - 42.195Km @ Batu 14, Hulu Langat

Date : 6-Sep-2015
Endomondo Running Workout: was out running 42.21 km in 6h:51m:55s using Endomondo

It have been low training since route68, and mostly 5-8Km during weekday. Running a full marathon is no joke at all without some training. Already expected 7 hours to completed the route, anyway there is bonus of 8 minutes.

Running at the dark at the beginning from Batu 14 Hulu Langat seen to be better for me, at least I still can pace someone. There is a girl I pace at least 2-3Km average during the 1st 5Km, and run still smooth till the 15Km at the sky still dark. slow down on the 1st uphill, and it is almost 4Km long and there are "durian" waiting at the U turn point. Started to push further during the downhill, and almost flat to the Km32. Just before the Km32, there is water station with sweet coconut juice which I found was the best along the route. Walk uphill, and almost 3Km to the Km35 water station. Here there was another girl I followed to push myself further.

Date : 16-November-2014
Endomondo Running Workout: was out running 42.89 km in 7h:03m:56s using Endomondo


Personal Worst timing on Full Marathon so far, in fact I crossed 42.195 below 7 hours accordingly to my Garmin, and the route seen to be over distance, and finished in slightly more than 7 hours.
A lot of people complaints about the events, anyway below are mine,
1. lack to distance markers, there are distance markers, but just not enough. some runner ask around how many more Km to go.
2. Over distance, expecting U turn while my Garmin clock 21km, but still have another 300m to go...
3. Finishing line, same finishing line for 42K, 21K, and 10K. Crowded while FM runner coming back, and those 10K runner slow walk to the finishing line.
