Week 2 Day 1, AM.
Fifth time participated in MPI Generali Run (formally known as MPIB Run). This time no longer have two categories, there is only a 10km and 5km fun run (costume run) from what I know. Unlike last time, there always will have a 12km and 9km events.
Took part in Men Open 10km. Got my bib super last minute, 10 minutes before flag off. Didn't have enough time to warm up plus a late night sleep the night before due to attend cousin's wedding dinner.
Always keep myself think positive and think of running it easy the first half and push harder in the second half. Did a few striding before the race very last minute and went to the starting line. Flag off on time at 7am, two Kenyan flied off, me and Anas running side by side. Uphill in the beginning followed by a downhill, Anas flying down so fast and I choose not to follow.
Running alone for awhile and Siva, Rosnizam came up and we ran together. Few times Nizam surged, Siva followed closely and I choose not to follow the surge but slowly pick up the pace when we hit the hills. Attacked on the hill and I made a move to pull a gap between them. Looking at Anas's back after completed few hills. From 350m between me and Anas, I start to close down the gap down to 100m, 18 seconds difference. Until last km, down to 60m, dipped harder on every hills, trying to match him, but once reach down hill, he picked up the pace.
Did not able to beat him till the end and looking him crossed the line when I was heading to finishing line. It is a good fight between us. Challenging race due to lack of sleep but thanks to the Zero X'Streme electrolyte from High5 Sports Nutrition I took before the race, manage to keep me stay focus throughout the race.
Clocked the race with 36:25 minutes, 10.4km, 3:30 min/km average, filled up with few strong kl signature hills.
Thanks to all my sponsor for the non stop support. Thanks to all the photographers and volunteers. You guys did a great job.
Time to sleep and do a recovery run later in the evening.

Putrajaya Night Marathon 2016
10km Men Open, 2nd, 34:52 minutes, 9.92km.
Last night story on PNM2016, thanks to Jan Chang for fetching me to Putrajaya and Congrats on her PB in HM.
Had a capsule of Actigin an hour before the race to help in boosting glycogen recovery and it support enhanced recovery times while providing a small but significantly boost to endurance and it can significantly reduce inflammation in muscle tissue. It does enhancing exercise to exhaustiom times an additional 20%. Other than that, had an electrolyte sports drink mixed from the High5 Sports Nutrition Zero X'treme tablet with 500ml of water. Drink it for about 300 ml and proceed to warm up and drills.

Get into the starting line at 8.25pm. Managed to squeeze into the second row. Race flagged off at 8.40pm and I cruised into it, lead the whole pack. About 10-15 seconds later, looking at Thevan overtook me and running at a really much faster pace and took the lead back and at that moment I was like, wow, I am not going to follow him at such a pace.
↓
Let him went away and I running at the second place at that moment. Later on, Rosnizam and Vasathan came up and we ran together. We clocked the first km at 3:06.5 min.
↓
At about 3km, left just me and Nizam. He came and lead me and I follow closely behind him. We merge into the same route as HM route and so wasting up lots of energy, slowing down to run through them by zig zagging most of the time. At one point, I told Nizam, let's run on the pavement. We have a smooth ride then.
↓
In between 3-7km, Nizam threw in a few surges to break me off, I didn't react to it and just maintain the pace. After awhile, I got closer back to him again when running downhill.
↓
Approaching the PICC, left just alone and a 3km all the way straight line to the finishing line. It was windy at the straight line, I just want to maintain the pace until the end.
↓
Reach the final 1km, turned up the gear, ran at a much faster pace. Until the last 500m, digging deep and ran more harder to chase the time. Managed to clock another sub 35 this time.
