Finally, well done and congratulations to all my friends! C u guys on nex run!

SCKLIM 2010 - Preview
In case u dono wat is SCKLIM, it stands for Standard Chartered Kuala Lumpur International Marathon 2010. Yup, it's the same marathon which i participated last year, click here for last year's post.
Recalling last year's event, it was organised by Octagon or famously known as Otak-gone for their poor event organising which messed up the marathon! This year i'm glad that they are not one of the organisers. Although the main organiser was replaced, this year shirt collection din't went as smooth as expected. Here's the story:
On thursday, which was the first day of shirt collection, Shane, Darren and I went to Titiwangsa Stadium to collect the shirts/vest for all of our frns. The first impression was great, we walked in to the air-cond indoor Titiwangsa Stadium. The shirt collection was divided according to categories and there was one section for bulk collection, which was abv 6 shirts. We decided to queue there since we needed to collect for ard 12. We waited, standing in the queue for an hour and yet the queue was stil very long.
We noticed that the 10km line is actually 100 times faster than ours, so we moved on to 10km collection. In a short while, it was our turns. To my suprise, out of the 12 participants i registered, only 2 shirts were successfully collected! 2 out of 12! They said our registration was incomplete and we had to queue up at information counter. I look to the counter, oh my, there was ard 30 ppl queuing up there. Since we had time, we decided to take turns and wait in line.
It took us around an hour for our turns, and the problem was: our registration was incomplete. Why? Something wrong with their system when i registered and ended up payment made but registration incomplete. The best part is, i was not the only one, most of them who registered online ended up with this problem, that is why the queue was long. At the end of the day, it took us 2 hours plus to collect all the shirts! Haih..
Although thursday was a disaster, today i went again with Keane and i spotted a few changes. As thursday, we walked to the 10km section, and the same problem happened. But this time, they asked us to wait at a side and they settle the problem instantly, the shirt was collected in not more than 5 minutes! Kudos to them for efficient work.
Btw, i have not trained for ages, hopefully i can finish on time 2moro. Haha.. God bless and take care to all runners!

Crossfit @ Body Express
Yesterday marked the 1st day of my crossfit training at Body Express, Subang Avenue. A few months back I heard of this gym which offered Crossfit, and i was very interested. I came and enquired about it but due to financial constraint and other reasons, i did not join. Although i didn't join, i recommended it to my friends and two of them actually joined :)
After they joined, each of them entitled to 1 month free pass for a friend, and that's how i got to try out for 1 month! Haha.. Let's make it short and do a summary of what i did last night.
MWOD (Men Workout Of the Day)
50-30-20 (3 sets for each workout, 50, 30, 20 repetitions)
Deadlift
Pushpress (KB)
21-15-9 (3 sets for each workout, 21, 15, 9 repetitions)
Flat bench (bench press)
Incline bench
Back
100 repititions of
Lampost
Torex
After the workout, i couldn't feel my chest as i'd worked it on previous days. Today, my back is aching but will return to the gym later at 6pm. Hopefully the MWOD will work on other parts and not my chest or back, if not i'll be dead by tonight.. Haha..
Not sure what is the chant of Crossfit, so
