Sunday Activities

I was on a solo long run yesterday morning. Met quite a few runners on the road along the way. Some were not doing the usual Sun long run as there were two events held back to back. One was the 12-hour walk in Putrajaya which started on Sat at 8.00pm while the other was the Chin Woo Biathlon on Sun morning.

After the long run, I made my way to Chin Woo Association to watch the biathlon event. This is an annual event which sees competitors swim 800m before completing it with a 7km run. I took part in the first edition. It was pretty embarassing for me at that time, as I was last out of the pool. Some even claim that I didn't even finish the swim leg as the judges were feeling tired of waiting. : )) Anyway, I was there to meet Jeff as well, who was keen to buy the Adidas tights which I was selling off. Got there in time to witness Iwata finishing first in the veteran event. I was told he came back to Malaysia just to support this event, which was organised by his nemesis in local tri scene, Don Khor together with Chin Woo Association.

A strong finish by Iwata

I went off earlier before the prize presentation as I had an appointment with my cousin and her bf. Took them to Alex's stall to have Sarawak Laksa and Tomato Kueh Tiaw. I had one bowl of Laksa and a bowl of Kolo Kueh Tiaw.

I went back to the Japanese anime DVD sales near Pandan Safari in Cheras and bought some more anime titles. There were more titles that I wanted to buy such as Gundam and Initial D (complete set) but both were more expensive. Might as well buy more titles with that price.

Some of the titles I got yesterday:

I think I can start opening a Japanese DVD rental shop soon. Anyone who wants to be my first customer?

I came back home feeling tired but watched a dvd on new Singapore movie called "Where Got Ghost?" It's a Jack Neo's production.

It was supposed to be a Ghost movie but this is a hilarious one. Those who hasn't seen it, go check it out. Of course must understand a little bit of hokkien and mandarin to watch it. Otherwise you got to rely solely on the subtitles! And usually in Jack Neo's production it has some elements of everyday life and morality tale. For this one, it's a three part tales. It reminds us about the consequences of greed, taking shortcuts in life and chasing after riches.
