Quote of the Day

We are different, in essence, from other men. If you want to win something, run 100 meters. If you want to experience something, run a marathon.

Report: ISKL Walk For Children

By Aiman Cheah

Date: 26 February, 2012 (Sunday)
Time: 8.00 a.m.
Venue: Padang Merbok, Jalan Parlimen, Kuala Lumpur
Category: Men Open
Distance: 5km
Position: 5th
Time: 35:09

It has been a long time since I can convince many people to an event. All my family members participated. My colleagues and their friends made it five. It could have been ten if my student also join us. However, he got a better race - Bukit Kepayang Blossom Run where he finished 8th.

The organization of the race was quite good. I was given the wrong bibs when I collected for my children. Instead of giving the 1.8km bibs, they were given 3km bibs. Likewise, I were given the 3km bibs but for sure I know it must be black and red so no mistakes on mine and my wife's bibs. Later, I asked my wife to change my children's bibs so as not to confuse the marshals over the distance they need to do.

I started at the third row. Those on the second row were the participants of the Explorace the day before. I was a little frustrated after the flag off. They were blocking me and as usual the top walkers left me biting the dust. They have always been the explosive starters.

By the time I overtook those on the second rows, I was already a good 50m behind. I was 6th going onto the road. The one ahead of me got a caution for floating and he abandon the race. I tried to keep pace but could only overtook the top female open after 10 minutes. After 20 minutes I ran out of steam. Hilly terrain is my worst fear and I was just strolling up the hill. Luckily those behind me had the same problem…

There were no pressure when I decided to slow down. Prizes were only for top 3 finishers. It was a clean race. Disqualification might not happen.

I was surprised that 5 prizes were given out in the end. Not only did I get a hamper, I also get a Quantum Science pedant. That's a lucky day for me!

The Man Who Survived The Desert

"I love the desert, it’s stronger than me, I cannot stop feeling like this and I respect it. I think that’s the only reason why it saved me from a certain death!" – these are the irst words Mauro Prosperi pronounced after surviving nine-days lost in the Sahara Desert. This terrible experience occurred to Mauro, 51 years old, former pentathlete of the Italian 1984 Olympic Team, during his 1994 participation in the worldwide endurance event known as the 'Marathon Des Sables', a terrible and exhausting race of 6 days and 233 km.



The athletes who participate in this competition run more than five and a half marathons in a single week, suffering inhuman physical conditions of endurance in the tremendous 50° C heat, demanding immeasurable stamina and inner strength.

It was on the third day of competition when Mauro was unfortunately caught in a fierce sandstorm, becoming completely disorientated and losing his sense of direction. When he realised he could never regain the right path, he decided to send the agreed S.O.S. signal, firing the emergency lare gun in the air.

Unfortunately neither any search helicopter nor any member of the race organisation came to his rescue. He had already travelled much too far in the wrong direction and was now alone with his terrible nightmare.

He kept running as long as his energies allowed, but the situation became desperate, when his daily stock of water and food ran out. Mauro’s efforts to stay alive had been tremendous to the extent that when he realised he was near to death and there was nothing else he could do, he decided to give in to avoid a more painful end.

He gave up and cut his wrists with a penknife to speed up and ease the process of dying. He lay down on the sand, exhausted, waiting for death to come; he lost his senses…. but fortunately he didn’t die, the effect of dehydration resulted in his blood thickening and clotting his wounds.



Thanks to God, Mauro woke up again the next morning; the realisation that he had come so close to death was a crucial experience and made his fight for life stronger than ever; his mind changed and he committed himself to survive in order to be able to return to his family who still needed him.

After 36 hours he ran out of food and water. He survived by collecting and drinking his own urine. He ate raw bats, found in an abandoned mosque, lizards and snakes occasionally found in the desert. And he kept running. After 9 days in the desert – and having entered unwittingly into Algeria.

Mauro Prosperi was found by a nomadic family of Tuareg and taken to an Algerian military camp and then to a hospital. He was 200 kilometres off-route, had lost 18 kilos in weight and started to suffer serious liver function problems.

His nightmare had at last came to an end and only now could he rest and concentrate on a complete recovery. "I don’t know how I could find the strength and the mental lucidity to resist such critical conditions; I was out of water and had no more liquids inside my body, no more energy to sustain my legs and to help me remain conscious.

I was sure I was getting closer and closer to death but the more difficult the situation became, the much stronger I felt inside. It was like discovering a hidden strength in the bottom of my heart, inspired by my will of living but generated by my inclination to face big efforts and critical situations, physically and mentally.

In fact before becoming a desert runner, I’ve been a modern pentathlete for many years. I’ve competed at both national and international level in this sport; I won 3 individual Italian titles, some international competitions, I took part in several World Championships and in 1984 I was part of the Italian Olympic team being the reserve athlete at home.

This tough and complete sport which require sand forges unique skills of physical and mental preparation, strength and endurance, let me have the possibility to go beyond my human limits and to resist even the worst physiological conditions.

Modern Pentathletes, both in training and in competitions are used to never giving up till there’s a possibility to go on; when I was competing the one-day competition format hadn’t been adopted and pentathlon events lasted 4-5 days; this caused the athletes remaining focused and determined on their final goals even when they’re still far, improving the pentathletes’ concentration abilities, despite the many difficulties.

My coach used to say – the competition ends up only after the last meter of the final event, which is the running; before it anything can happen, so never give up and go ahead towards your goal!! These words had sounded within me while I was taking part to the toughest competition of my whole life, wandering into the desert in the search of any kind of assistance. Now I can say that what I needed was right here inside myself, deep alive in my heart.

"Pentathlon always taught me how important it was to have respect for our own opponents, this time my rival was the desert, an immense and almost invincible one, only by respecting it I found the strength to never give up and the possibility to co-live with it even in terrible conditions".

From his own words it seems that Mauro considers the desert a living entity which is able to understand who loves or hates it; the desert recognised that Mauro paid a deep respect to it even if it exposed him to incredible suffering; living through this suffering made Mauro stronger inside and gave him the chance to survive as a reward for his reverential and respectful behaviour.

After his tough experience in Sahara Desert, Mauro became a hero in his country, but on the other hand he had to suffer liver and kidneys malfunctions; later on he succeeded in recovering his usual eficiency and once back to his own normal condition he couldn’t avoid opening again his heart to the desert’s call.

Four years after his dramatic participation to Marathon des Sables, Mauro Prosperi returned to compete again in that event - "It was a very bad and terrible experience," he said, "And yet it was a great one. I am a competitor," he explained, "I love the nature and I love the desert; I could not stay apart from it too long; that’s why I’m back".

More categories offer. Got kid <12yrs, boys and girls too.
But only BSP resident!... duh!

Anyway... just pop-up on my mind. I think... Why not the registration fee replace with recycle stuffs. Meaning anyone who like to join the event should bring old newspaper, plastic bottles or tin cans in certain weight as registration fee.

Maybe for 10km category must bring 10kg of recycle items. 5km = 5kg or more.

Late registation... 20kg :)

Any organizer want to try?

FTAAA to hold relays as tribute to former president

THE Federal Territories Amateur Athletics Association (FTAAA) have taken another step in the promotion and development of athletics by organising a relays competition.

The FTAAA-Milo Relays, with three legs, is a tribute to Tan Sri Mohd Amin Osman, who after serving as FTAAA president for 27 years, stepped down recently. The venue for the three legs is the Kuala Lumpur Football Stadium. The first leg will be on March 3, second on April 21 and the third on June 17.

The events in the relays are 4x100m for the Under-12, Under-15, Under-18 and Open — for both men and women; 4x200m for the Under-15 age groups (boys and girls); 4x400m (Under-18 and Open) for men and women; 4x800m (Under-18 boys).

The exciting event will be the medley where each team will comprise two men and two women. The first and second runner will run 200m; the third 400m and the anchor 800m.

Prizes will be given to the top three teams in each leg. After the third leg, the top eight teams, according to the accumulated points, will be awarded medals. Cash prizes will be given to the top three teams in the overall standings. The overall champions will receive the Tan Sri Mohd Amin Challenge trophy.

FTAAA secretary S. Vegiyathuman said the relays were included in their 2012 calendar to create more opportunities for athletes.

“The relays are the most exciting event in athletics. When we proposed this idea, the feedback was encouraging. We have come out with guidelines to make the relays interesting and exciting,’’ said Vegiyathuman.

The organisers are expecting clubs, associations and schools in the Klang Valley to make the relays a success. Points will be awarded to the teams in each leg.

Vegiyathuman said they were working on a mechanism of awarding the points, cash awards and entry fee per team.

“We are making an early announcement as we want the teams to be prepared. We have initiated the relays to attract the crowd to the stadium. The success of the relays will very much depend on the participating teams,’’ he said.
