Adination Run in Permaisuri & Sun Long Run

I went to Cheras Leisure Mall on Friday to register myself for SP Setia Eco Half Marathon. Met up with Kelvin there and he invited me for Permaisuri Adination Run, which happens at Taman Tasik Permaisuri every Friday. So I went and it was great to meet up friends from Permaisuri. Their usual Fri run covers 7km. I went with them for a lap before going on my own to add in some mileage.

After run, had dinner with Han and Brandon (who just got back into running after a long lay off being a high flyer in the corporate world). During dinner, both Han and Brandon showed so much enthusiasm and nothing but good comments in their recent trips up north in Cambodia and Laos. Both even considered moving there to do some goodwill work. We then met John and Wai Mun who were there to eat as well.

Today, went out for a 20km run which I have done for a while. Had pretty positive first half but tire the 2nd half of the run. Need some more mileage to get myself back into competitive fitness. I wouldn't dare to follow Don or Cecil today as I know I was just lose touch with them pretty quickly. It's also Don's 51st birthday today. And he just get faster the older he gets. So young men out there, don't keep using the excuses that you are too old to run! Look at Don, he is still running a sub-3:10 marathon time this year!

Next few scheduled races:
1. Ekiden Relay (16 May)
2. Sundown Half Marathon (29 May)
3. SP Setia Eco Half Marathon (5 Jun)
4. Standard Chartered KL Half Marathon (27 Jun)
5. Siemens Run 2010 - 10km (18 Jul)

Now I just realised I've got 3 Halfs in a month.....ciaklat!
