SCKLM 2011

Standard Chartered KL Marathon (SCKLM) was held last Sunday (26th June). WY, Michael and myself took part in the 10km men & women open. Our very first run with SC and it was a pleasant experience. The organiser did a good job overall. There were enough water stations and medic throughout the 10km. Saw some comments from their Facebook page talking about ice, sponge, insufficient size for finisher tee for full marathon (42km). BIG  round of applause to the entire organising committees, volunteers - they never stop smiling and cheering, police and everyone that has contributed to the success of the event. Excellent and awesome~!

Tadaa~
We made it to the end..


Woke up 4am that day. @.@ We took shuttle bus from Bukit Jalil to Jalan Parlimen.
Warm-up Cam-whoring at the starting point for more than 1hour before flag off at 7am.




our shared breakfast - forgot to prepare bread :(

It started to drizzle just before the start. Don't really prefer to run in cold weather - cause I hardly sweat even with the sun. Lol
Nice route for 10km - we get to tour KL city during the run and Taman Burung (Bird Park)!! Hehehe

My feedback:
*I don't look good in green singlet - quality average


* LONG queue at the toilets before the 10km start. Organiser should have prepare more toilets for 10 thousand runners that morning.


* I realised some part of the route without proper traffic control.

* Few items in the race pack for RM60 we paid - BIB, singlet, pen, booklet, muesli bar and Subway voucher



* Too many runners at the starting point - 10380 in total from the statistic today. We took more than 5mins to reach the starting point after gun. Some slow runners / walkers caused the 'slow traffic'.. I might be in the slow runners catergory.. Hehe..

part of the crowd

With my slow pace, I finally finished the 10.6km and reached dataran Merdeka after 1h22m22s. What a nice number!!!! :)
