What a great day last night. After finished the race, I got back to the hotel. Had lunch and the have a short nap. Then say goodby to my friend @bashirabdi204
Then I received a message on Instagram from a Malaysian, Nik who based in Newcastle and they would like to invite me to come over to the race site for Nasi Lemak as they have set up a camp at the field next to it over there there, together with a group of Malaysian (Akmal, Mahat, Shu, Hilmi) and other members.
Took a 2 mile walk from the hotel that I stayed to their camp, and throughout the journey, I got to see the runners still doing their run. Last 2 mile to the finishing line. Gave them some cheer and motivate them to keep going. Jog or brisk walk, don't stop.
Super happy to have Malaysian food - Nasi lemak over there. We have a great time chatting and sharing about the race experience and got to know more about each other.
Later I got invited to one of their house, Abang Jamal, for coffee time and dinner. Got to meet their family members at his home and they are all so kind and thoughtful. Brought up some cakes, snacks, of course coffee ☕.
Warm welcome from them and then we had dinner together (kuey teow ladna, chicken, basmati rice).
We exchanged ideas, thoughts and sharing of our own experiences. I got to learn some new valuable information from them.
Then Abang Jamal fetch me back to the hotel at 10pm. Once I entered the lobby of the hotel, I got to see the Elite Athletes like @kingcheserek
@shazrine @bygolly.molly @stewy_mac3 @galenruppofficial @charlottepurdue
And the organizer, Matt.
And so I joined them. We have a great time laughing, talking, chatting. They are really funny and lovely. Super happy to spend time with them. Forgot to take a wefie for this moment! 😭
Enjoy the atmosphere so much. Wanna visit the 👑 @kingcheserek definitely after the Empire State Building Run Up and to train with them.
Thanks @great_run for all this wonderful experience.
I am looking forward already to come back to Newcastle for the Great North Run 2022 and this time I will be prepare for it and to hit a much faster timing (perhaps the NR!).

chicken run 在 [字彙] chicken run - 精華區Eng-Class - 批踢踢實業坊 的推薦與評價
昨天看[東大特訓班]時 (^^")
她們講到一個單字 chicken run
看樣子意思是(暴走族)一種比賽方式
看誰敢煞車時離終點越近(不煞車就會掉近海)
我想問為什麼chicken run有這個意思
它是從哪裡引申而來的呢？

我比較常聽到的是"chicky-race"
我是看片子時聽到的,片名叫
"養子不教誰之過" Rebel Without a Cause
這是一部1955年的片子,裡面就有提到"chicky-race"
興趣的人可以上imdb查查資料
