100公里越野赛,28个小时半(几乎)不眠不休的时间里,你知道我都经历了些什么吗?
9月份在沙巴的TMBT(The Most Beautiful Thing) 100公里越野超马对我的意义重大。
从还没有开始跑超马,就已经听过这号称是马来西亚历史最悠久同时也最具指标的越野赛,心里面一直回响着同一句话“有一天,我一定要完成TMBT100公里越野赛!“
我带着这样的想法和伙伴们去到了沙巴,但内心却是忐忑不安的。沙巴闷热的气温,时晴时雨的天气,充满挑战的路况,所有的一切都叫我担心,担心自己无法完赛。谁都不想曾经付出的一切就这样付诸东流。
比赛的一开始我根本无法发挥,感觉身体的引擎怎样也无法启动。好不容易撑到20几公里处才开始进入佳境,慢慢地找到前进的频率。跑了50公里后,天色完全暗了下来,我一个人在漆黑的山林里一步也不敢怠慢地往前行,陪伴我的只有我那强烈想完赛的意志,我没有一丝觉得害怕更没有任何一丝想放弃的念头。再后来我勉强追上了曾经在香港一起熬过环大屿山100公里的旧伙伴,彼此互相鼓励向终点前进。任务完成!
这是我参加TMBT100的一个小小记录(后半段的50公里因为在晚上度过加上太专注地跑步所以完全没有记录到)。虽然已经过了几个月,但那100公里过程中的汗水和雨水的味道好像还残留在部分毛孔的深处,因为这一段旅程实在太叫人难以忘怀了!
我们的人生不也是一场充满挑战又难以预测的超马吗?努力地往前跑就对了!

TMBT
The Most Beautiful Thing,关于这场据说是马来西亚历史最悠久的越野赛我听过太多,说他是马来西亚最具指标的越野赛也不为过。绕着神圣壮丽的神山,跑在沙巴这神秘而富饶的土地上,叫人格外热血沸腾。所以我一直都这样认为,身为马来西亚人的我一定要完成一场TMBT。
9月16号,马来西亚日的这一天我终于踏上路程,准备写下属于我的TMBT。早上6点22分,比赛正式开跑了。我向来就是一个slow starter,才一下子就落到了队伍的后头。我一点也不紧张,100公里的路很长,不需要和他人比速度,因为这是我自己的100公里。我知道自己跑不快只好尽量让自己能够撑地够久。只不过刚开跑的十几公里简直是场恶梦,或许是天气太闷热,我完全提不起劲。有一种引擎启动不了的感觉,每一步都喘不过气,即使不停地补充水分调整呼吸,但脚步就是感觉特别沉重,这其实很叫人沮丧。
这样的情况好不容易在W3之后开始改善。或许是因为在休息站吃了自己准备的肉干面包喝了热咖啡再加上一包power gel,给了身体所需的能量,才慢慢地进入状态,而比赛也恰好在这时进入最辛苦其中几个路段。从W3往W4前进距离7.5公里,爬升610米,那时正好是中午时分,头顶上的大太阳让每一步都更加煎熬。但神奇的是,我没有任何烦躁的心情,也没有任何负面的情绪,脑袋里面几乎什么也没有想就这样不停往前走。好像可以就这样一直走到不知名的尽头一样,当下就是这样一种心无杂念的感觉。我常觉得,跑越野超马也好像一场自我修行,有时候未必有太多的对话,但是所有宁静的瞬间都让内心特别平静,我特别珍惜。
而比赛最煎熬的部分是入夜后。我已经不怕一个人走在乌漆麻黑的山林里了,但抵抗不了的睡意真的让我非常痛苦。明明睁着眼睛却一直觉得视野朦胧,需要特别用力才能将眼皮撑开。真的好想睡。好不容易撑到W8之后,我决定要不顾一切地在休息站睡觉。当然也算不上真正的睡觉,顶多就是闭目养神8分钟,但这已经很叫人感到满足了。结果我在接下来的每一个休息站都一定要睡上8分钟,再加上吃吃喝喝的休息时间确实在休息站都耗了不少时间,有得必有失,这也是无法避免的。睡睡醒醒跑跑停停,在W9之后终于追上之前在香港大屿山一起完成100公里的战友,我终于不用再做独行侠了。
和战友一起熬过黑夜,迎来了光明,100公里只剩下最后的16公里左右,离终点不远了!但正面的心情却在最后11.5公里开始动摇了。最后一段路是魔王级高达880米的爬升,在身体已经疲惫不堪的状况下更是难度升级。这是整场比赛中我第一次强烈觉得自己快不行了,有种“我会被这上坡路搞死”的感觉。我走地特别慢,天气热而我继续觉得昏昏欲睡,不停地被其他参赛者超越,我却累地连追上去的想法也没有。逼不得已只好再嗑一包power gel,同时调整呼吸,祈祷老天施舍我雨水,才终于慢慢地恢复体力往终点跑去。28个小时26分28秒,TMBT100终于完成了。
我后来才知道,关于TMBT,原来还有一个马来名字,
Tunggu Mati Baru Tahu
🤣
一定要另外表扬的是第一次跑越野赛的阿哲!没有太多跑步经验的他直接越级打魔王挑战100公里,虽然从20公里开始就感受到双脚的疼痛却不放弃地撑着登山杖撑着痛楚撑到50公里!这样强韧的意志力真的很叫人佩服,不轻言放弃就是一件值得骄傲的事了!明年就等你Jackahzhe阿哲 写下属于你的TMBT了!💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

tmbt2017 在 Beast Runners 跑山獸 Facebook 的最佳解答
The way to go – how I prepared for Borneo TMBT Ultra Trail Marathon - enjoy and won its 50km – good choice of equipment and details care
Before I will share my tips, want invite you to ULTRA Trail Running Seminar 行前分享會. Lets share experience of Taiwanese runners with racing in UTMB®, Leadville, TDG,...
event here: https://www.facebook.com/events/115849219133054/
BASIC EQUIPMENT
✔ SCOTT Running Taiwan Supertrac RC
This year best choice for races and some FKT up to 50km for me, fit well, good grip, fast,…
✔ Ultimate Direction Taiwan AK mountain vest 3.0
Already run 4 years with UD. AK has enough volume, good pockets, very smart vest
✔ Compressport Taiwan trail shorts
Already wear few yars, feels good, minimize chafing problems.
✔ GPS - Suunto Ambit Peak 3
Upload GPX of the course is very important. Use smart watch with good battery or smartphone. From our experience marking can easy to disappear, getting tired and not focus. Study course from description, elevation profile, important turns etc before race. (In TMBT I know will have to pass over 300 runners from 100km category, steep climbs, final stairs,…)
NUTRITION
✔ Runivore
Pack 4 bites of Runivore. Ate two, small pack of dry tomatoes and two mini bananas. Bought two drinks from locals.
✔ Tailwind Nutrition Asia
1.5L of light mixture of Tailwind in bladder on the start. Extra energy and electrolytes.
✔ RacingPro 運動達人能量補給站 Electrolytes tabs. I don`t cramp so much, but still race in Asia means lot sweating.
HEAT MANAGEMENT
✔ Taiwan Beast Runners (跑山獸) Jersey
Great material, don`t feel wet. Full zip, back pockets etc. Also Beast power for run in jungle.
✔ BEAST BUFF
This is crucial gear for my running. One on head protect from sun and let water vaporize and cool down. Second headband have ready to make wet in any water and make head and another part of body wet. Also It is very effective put wet buff or towel on neck, especially during long climbs.
✔ Soft bottle
I use 2L bladder and one 0.5L soft bottle. Flask use for drinking in CP and fill up with water to go and again use for my head. Tailwind in bladder.
IMPORTANT (NO) DETAILS
✔ JACKET
Did not use this time. But light jacket is important even in hot countries. TMBT2017 had heavy rain later in afternoons and temperature drop quickly.
✔ Gurney Goo Asia
SKIN CHAFING can be terrible. Apply Gurney Goo night and morning before long run is great prevention. Small tube pack with you.
✔ Fenix Worldwide HL26 headlamp
Even for 50km need pack good headlamp. Choose light and smart Fenix HL26. (if you go overnight don`t forget for secondary light)
✔ Mandatory Equipment
Follow mandatory equipment, never know if you or somebody around will need it. Especially jacket, headlamps and extra light. Space blanket. Phone with accessible number (write it on waiver). Whistle. Basic First Aid kit and adhesive tape. For me all this was just two small zip packs.
Some equipment can find in TBR eshop: http://www.shop.taiwanbeastrunners.com/
