Bib: H8209
Distance: 21.02 km (by Garmin FR405)
Timing: 1'49:38 (Gun Time)
Average Pace: 5:12 min per km
Position: 17th (Gun Time)

No training for a week before this race, dare not expect any good results, just hope can came back with one whole pieces.

First 10km was easy for me, completed with 49:33, I am satisfied with this pace and believe I can do it better compare with Putrajaya Night Marathon on last month. Take my power gel at 12km drink station and pia again. Unfortunately I felt stomach ache at about 14km, I am worried and keep a sponge as back up, in case I need it when I go to open air toilet during the my last 7km run.

Meet up a lot of 10km runners at about 15.2km, the path become crowded. I try to over take as many as I can, although my stomach ache become worst and worst, just hope I can endure until the finishing line. My stop watch shown 1'49 ++ when I saw the finishing arc, try to speed up and crossing with 1'49:38....

Race Report: Bareno Run 2010

Location: Stadium Nasional, Bukit Jalil
Date/Time: 14th March 2010 @ 7.00 am
Category: A - Men Open
Bib: A362
Distance: 14.95 km (by Garmin FR405)
Timing: 1'13:48
Average Pace: 4:56 min per km
Position: 36th

Didn't expect that I manage to finished the race with 4:56 min per km pace, I just recover from serious cough for one week, only did a 10 km training on Thursday before this race.

Very nice route with some hilly route, the most difficult part is after 10 km, after ran up and down for about 3 km inside Taman Rekreasi Bukit Jalil, then still run uphill along Lebuhraya Bukit Jalil for about 500 meter before turn in to Jalan Barat, I almost exhausted and not manage to pia for the last 1 km. Anyhow still satisfied with my result with my 1'13:48 timing at position 36th in category A.
