Race Report: adidas King Of The Road 2011

Location: New Pantai Expressway, Sunway Pyramid, Petaling Jaya
Date/Time: 2nd Oct 2011 @ 6:45 am
Category: A - Men Open
Bib: A 0956
Distance: 16.74km (by Garmin FR 405)
Timing: 1'20:57
Average Pace: 4:50 per km

Flag off at 6:45am, run from Sunway Pyramid towards west direction and u-turn before Persiaran Jengka, run towards east direction along NPE, u-turn at Jalan Templer junction and back to Sunway Pyramid.

I try to squeeze myself to the front of starting line, just to avoid jam during flag off, run much more faster than my expectation, perhaps chasing and pushing by too many fast runners around me. The path are quite clear for me until I reached the 10km u-turn juction.

Saw finishing arc after ran out from the tunnel, speed up and push myself for last few hundred meter, saw brother Tey Eng Tiong was there and he managed to snap my pia face photo.

Crossing finishing with 1'20:57, out of my expectation.

My split time and pace:

adidas King Of The Road, generally a well organize event, drink station every 3 km, serve water and isotonic drink, distance marker almost every km. Nice route to run, not so hilly, just need to run on the flyover above Kewajipan roundabout.
