With few races lining up in the first quarter of 2010, I officially started my own training past weekend with friends. Kash, Syah, Nik, Din and Fadhil (a newcomer, my neighbour) were in the pack. Rashid and Day O unfortunately overslept, so we had to proceed without them.
It was a good run for all of us. We started the run ard 645am from Bukit Aman carpark, passed the Double Hill at Bukit Tunku, crossed Jalan Duta and into Hartamas. We had a pitstop at the Petronas stn for a quick breakkie (for me lah). I walloped two buns and a pudding before running back to Bukit Aman. Not wanting to push myself too much too soon (this is my very first training session after SCSM09), I took my time to cover the remaining 10km distance with Kash, with a series of continuous sneezing accompanying us 
(yours truly had an itcy nose … he forgot to trim his nose hair …. hehehe). We talked about Crossfit and such, where she’ll be joining the class soon (I may too). Din greeted us at finishing line with a can each of icy cool 100plus. Thanks Din. All in all, I covered about 20km of good pure fun run with buddies.
this pitstop at Petronas is important for me to replenish the lost fluid/energy L-R : Din, Fadil, Syah, Nik, Kash & me

another LSD calling!
Our dear friend Syah is also inviting friends & other runners to join the fun this coming Saturday, 9th January, for another round of LSD. This will be a final LSD for those who are attempting the New Balance 30K at Padang Merbok next weekend.
Date : Saturday, 09 January 2010
Route : Bukit Aman towards Hartamas and back, with 2 loops around Lake Garden
RV : 6.00 a.m. at Bukit Aman carpark
Right after the run, I’m attending a health talk by Dr. Aziz, a well-known neuroscientist, at Tan Sri Datuk Paduka Saleha Complementary Healthcare Clinic at Bangunan Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz, Jalan Utara PJ (beside Crystal Crown Hotel). In fact. this will be my fourth time at the clinic. I love attending these kind of talks as I could learn alot from the speakers (important as a trainer …. best of all, it’s FREE) Sometimes, they even invite speakers to talk about Sports Injuries, Sports Nutrition etc. If you want to tag along, you are most welcomed! Do let me know as I can always book the seats ahead. The free talk runs every Saturday from 10am-12pm.
It feels like January is a very short month… when u have a big race to do in February…
