Back from KLIM... it was incredible.. i BROKE my own RECORD.. YES!!.. not PB but a personal worst.. my slowest or rather my longest 42.2km.. 4hr33min..!! this was abt 7min more than my 1st attempt.. ZZzz.. anyway.. can't really complain much abt it.. my longest LSD b4 this race was only arn 19km and i only did twice of this dist which were definitely not enough to achieve a gd timing.. none the less.. i think it was still a gd timing consider tt the terrain and the Carbon Monoxide tt i had to take in while running.. haha... Yes the KLIM route was indeed challenging (esp the air =X).. as expected after my 07 experience.. the up and down slopes can really kill u.. the up slopes slow down my strides and pace (to conserve energy) while the down slopes only allow me to open up my stride a little but not really in pace.. cos if i were to increase my pace during a down slope, i guess i would have to walk for quite a dist b4 i continue running again.. ahaha... i was able to maintain a consistent pace of 10km/hr till 22km.. after which i switched to the walk and run strategy and then finally 'hit the wall' at 30km.. the last 12k was just purely 'sight-seeing' experience and letting other to overtake me.. haha.. Will definitely be back in 09... hopefully the air will be much better.. The air condition was really bad.. plus those people who were rushing in the early morning for Qin Ming, only make the air quality even worse.. their cars haiz.. Chui..!! most of them were not environmental friendly at all..!! Anyway, i still enjoyed the trip to KL.. All the Makaning..Yummy.. cheap cheap food...with Khai yau.. haha.. KFC!!! hahaha...

Had lessons from Tue to Thurs.. was really tired.. felt sleepy esp after lunch.. my eyes were looking at the lecturer but my brain couldn't adsorb the info and also some of those talkative 'aunties' in the LT were really distracting esp during POA.. Pbf ones still ok.. they were quite discipline.. anyway sometimes i was actually thinking of other things.. so ya.. haha..!~
Will be meeting Weilun and Jeremy at Suntec to take a look at ASICS sales later.. Time to get new buddies for my lovely feet.. hope to get a trainer and a racer shoe.. plus some running gears.. have been waiting for this sale for a super long time.. hope to spend within $200..=) Hope it doesn't rain too.. cos will be swimming later with weilun.. yes..!! i need some water therapy for my legs..!!
