Short News - Cinta Sayang


Aerobic dance exercise before the run

Still no mood to write a report. Very upset with the organizer. Not only me but the rest core runners. Felt being cheated. Twice!. from organizer and the kaki tipu runners. The worst and stupid run event before Ipoh Int. Run 2004 - Bodoh!


Flag-off 4km school category

The Organizer.
They were not really-x2 serious to organize this run event. Although it said this run was collaboration with Pejabat Pelajaran Daerah Kuala Muda/Yan and MIC negeri Kedah in registration form - big name hah!. But i think run this gave a bad name to Pejabat Daerah K.Muda/Yan & MIC.

To Kaki Tipu Runners 3-4x
"Tak halal.. ko ambik medal tuh!.. reput kaki ko!"

Imagine!..
One of top runners from Thailand, registered/should run under 4km category.. but finish 9km and the prize?! - Finish laa..
- category run cuma 4km & 8km saja.. ko lari 9km sapa suruh..

- Kapla Jingga, mangkuk hayun, kuda kepang, jin tanah - punya Cinta Sayang!


p/s: Aku tak habis maki lagi..

9km = 42.19mins
Position = 11
- Dapat certificate.. printed with my name.. "cantek gila!!". Color hijau!

The Edge - Bursa Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Rat Race®

Petaling Jaya, 20 June 2005 - The unique race for charity is back! The Kuala Lumpur Rat Race® returns on 9 August for its sixth year and will benefit ten charitable organisations as it did last year. This time, the event will be known as The Edge - Bursa Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Rat Race® , with Bursa Malaysia coming on board as co-organiser.

Donations collected from participating local and foreign companies in Malaysia will be channelled towards these beneficiaries involved in various causes. Last year, 75 teams took time out to run for a good cause and helped raise a record-breaking RM667,500.

The ten beneficiaries for this year's Race are:

1. St. Joseph's Home, Penang (affiliated to Catholic Welfare Services & formerly known as St. Joseph's Orphanage)
2. Persatuan Kanak-kanak Istimewa Kajang
3. Persatuan Mobiliti Selangor dan Kuala Lumpur
4. Asia Community Service, Penang
5. Palliative Care Association of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah
6. Rumah Bethany, Perak
7. All Women's Action Society (AWAM), Petaling Jaya
8. Persatuan Kebajikan Pesakit HIV/AIDS Nurul Iman Malaysia (PERNIM), Ampang
8. Shelter Home for Abused Women and Children, Seremban
9. Persatuan Pendidikan Anak-anak Yatim Lipis, Pahang

The Kuala Lumpur Rat Race® has its origins from the Carey Wall Street Rat Race. It is an annual 4 km run through the New York City Wall Street area involving stock traders, bankers, investment counsellors, lawyers and accountants. The Carey Wall Street Rat Race provides these people an opportunity to blow-off steam after a hard day's work while doing their bit for charity.

Wednesday, 8th June



Decide to test run in Melaka town. A night before, check the route after dinner.. pekena asam pedas!.

Start at 4.55am from Grand Contenantal Hotel which i stay, use Jalan Tun Sri Lanang. Really buzy road during daylight. Weather not so good, could heard guruh sound but I'm already in-front of hotel, with running vest and shoes - No turning back!

5am - after 5mins of warm-up - Cabut!

Roads.. clear. Run with slow pace. Want to enjoy Melaka town pepagi buta. Pass Stadthuys building and Maritime Museum at Jalan Quayside. Then Dataran Pahlawan at Jalan Merdeka.

At Jalan Laksama Cheng Ho.. i was being ambushed twice. First squad with 3 dogs. Luckily got stones around to throw and i ran chase them. Collect another 2 grenades as backup.

Second squad with 2 ekoq. They start barking, i ran fast toward and throw both grenades. Hit one of them.

Continue running, thru Jalan Semabok. Stadium Tun Fatimah on my right. Then turn left to main road Jalan Tun Razak. Melaka town still sleeping.. and heard an Subuh azan.. - huh! must run fast abit

Until reach Masjid Negeri, turn left to Jalan Taming Sari and Jalan Tun Sri Lanang.

Yeah! i did Historic Malacca City Quarter Marathon! - heheheee..

First time run around my kampung. Cross Kedah border (Relau) and get back to into Penang. Did early morning after Subuh. A night before, deal with my father as he agreed to follow me on the run by bike. But after subuh... he still asleep. Malas to wake him up... put my running shoes.. Arrriiibaa! at 6:30am

About 4km, reached Relau. a cowboy-town. Received weird looking from villagers. Tot want to gave Salam... but thinking that i wore a short - Better quiet and enjoy the Relau hills and be like stranger.

Passed the Pyramid Mineral Water factory, one of Mineral Water supplier. If you found Pyramid mineral water drinking.. see the address. It came from Relau, Kedah nooooh! not Penang.

Run thru Sg. Rambai, head to Sg. Duri (8km). The biggest kampung. Where i finished my primary school here.. The school look good with new painting. Got a new 3 storey and extended building. School field.. not changed - Old memory reload in my mind while running especially in sport.

Still remembered i won 400 metre and pukui (defeat) the contender. While on podium the emcee invite my father gave the medal. - huh! what a memory..

Till now, don't know where the medal is..

Try to find any old friends along - No... may be still early.

Turn right at Sg.Bakap & Sg. Baong junction. Head to my kampung.

..and i did a loop at my kampung!
