Spritzer-Kelab RoadRunners Ipoh Annual Run (12.12.2010)
Race Distance: 12km on macadamized road surfaces on undulating terrain of up to more 250 meters above sea level.
Clocking Time: 1:29:23
Average Speed: 8.09km/hr
Award: Top 600 Finisher T-Shirt & Finisher Medal (within 2.5hrs)
Good: Spectacular scenic view at Bukit Kinding, good trail for cross country run.
Bad: I find the slope very steep at some parts, steeper than stairwell!, my legs just refuse to run me up, that's just me.
Penang Bridge International Marathon (21.11.2010)
Race: 21km on tarred surfaces.
Clocking Time: 2:49:38
Average Speed: 7.45km/hr
Award: Finisher Medal (within 3.5hrs)
Good: Amazing that you are looking at island while running instead of driving on the bridge, a rare chance.
Bad: It was raining cats and dogs, wet and heavier to run. Difficult to find car park.
Kebun Bunga Charity Run (24.10.2010)
Race: 6km on tarred surfaces & pavements.
Cloking Time: 38:44
Average Speed: 9.47km/hr
Award: Top 500 Finisher Medal
Good: Easy and fun run, it's for charity anyway. Treat it as a practice run.
Bad: Have to take care of traffic e.g. cars, pavement running is not comfortable which is especially true in Malaysia due to its quality.
Next? Am looking for easy practice runs such as 6km or 10km and better prepare for a run like Malakoff 26km challenge: 2010's route. Will be a nice race as it takes you through lush greenery, seaside view, city centre and historical sites. I need to boost my running speed and stamina to 9km/hr-10km/hr pace for continuous 3 hours. If there is any event especially in Penang let me know! For now it's back to the training ground.

Not forgetting the top 5 marathon songs I have on my playlist while running.
