Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2011

Date: 26 June 2011

The mind was willing but the body wasn't.

Yes we were there! All of us ran the 10k category. Started at 7am at Jalan Parlimen near Padan Merbok. and finished at Dataran Merdeka. Around 22,000 runners participated this year with different categories offered. My time was 1:27'42" along with Paan as we were running together all the way. Lost sight of him at the first water station. Apparently he didn't stop to take a sip. Faiz was way in front of us. According to him, his time was an hour. But time tracker don't lie. Later, I found he finished 1:19'00+". Still props to him. It is not a matter of who's the fastest, but who has the most guts. Thanks to Paan, Faiz, Azizan and Taqiuddin for participating. Hope what we do here could attract all our friends to be actively involve in running. Kudos to us all!
