Adidas KOTR 2009

Yup, bac from the run and my knees are hurting now.. Had a hard time goin up and down the stairs as my knees cant bend after the run..

Dis morning, kok eon, siow and i met up wif Benny and frns and started our journey to Shah Alam Stadium.. It took us ard 10min 2 reach thr, which is ard 10km from my home, USJ 2..

By the time we reach, it's ard 6.30am and many ppl were already thr.. We found our parking spot, did our warm up, drank water, etc..

By 7.00am sharp, the race started! If i'm not mistaken, i heard the announcer saying that there's 3000 participants in our category.. 350 medals over 3000 participants.. Of cos I have a chance!

Ard 7.20am, i was starting 2 feel the pain on my right knee, but i kept running, ignoring the pain.. Although i can continue my running, my speed was kinda slow as i saw my frn who ran and stopped and keep up wif my pace..

Ard 7.50am, dis was the time when i started to feel tired, pain.. 50min of running, i shd have completed ard 9 or 10km.. I kept thinkin that way, but i've forgotten that i was running really slow..

Ard 8.00am, 1 hour already! Was wondering why i hvn reach the finish line, starting to feel like giving up, but i feel i stil have a chance on the medal, although the qualifying time is 50min which already passed.. I started to run faster, but i stil cant catch up wif my frn who all the way running close to me..

Ard 8.13am, i saw Ah Siow was already there cheering 4 me as i crossed the finish line.. Hurray! I crossed it and stopped! Guess wat!? Instantly, i feel the pain in both my knees.. I tot it was only my right knees but it's both my knees..

I got my cert and went to greed Ah Siow.. He managed to finish it in ard 50min, kudos to him! Oh yeah! Where's my medal!? No more medal 4me.. Feel kinda disappointed but i was thinkin: those got medal surely a lot more faster den me lo.. Mana tau, i saw 2 frns which finished ard 1 o 2min ahead of me got a medal! ARRRR!!!!!!!!!!!! Sayangnya!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wanna go mad d! Jus a whisker away from a medal.. GERAM!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, i'm ok wif it now.. I promised myself that i'll get a medal on nex KOTR! But 1st, i shall rest my knees which had been faithful 2me, helpin me 2 run so many races.. So, rest my knees, train later and nex time, superman will be running again.. Yup, running, not flying.. Hope i'm not lame.. Haha..

Cheers ;) Btw, congrats to Ah Siow and Alfred who got medal and Benny, Kenny, Kok Eon and others who completed the run!

Stay SHAKELINGAM!!!™

God Bless..
