Irregular race ramblings

Five days to go and I'm already thinking ahead for other freaking activities. Aiyo! Have I gone nuts or what?! Junkie I am if I continue to have this kind of thinking. KL-Marathon should be my marathon anniversary. Ran it for the first time last year and like Nik said, it was my PB. Hehe. PW also can what? You can name it either way - Nik, what on earth were you thinking that Saturday morning? First marathon got PB or PW eh? Okay. Okay. Hopefully the run will turn out great for me and the rest of my fellow buddies. Perhaps PB for everyone. Yeay!

Like I said, the race have yet to start and I'm already scheduling a non-commitment training agenda. With only a month and a half before Ramadhan, races spark like thunder claps - pounding on the wallet and plastic. Some small races should be fine I guess. Small in distance and fee. But I need to consider leaping onto my bike soon. The bricks must start before it's too late. I don't count after raya as training days anymore. My base should start somewhere in July and slowly progress during Ramadhan. Westerners say base training in winter, I call it base training in eid-Mubarak. Cool.

Having to attend our second swimming class, Det and me were bitten by the water bug - big time! Now he's already hunting for pools to leap into during lunch time. Me? I will let him do the hunting and will only join him next week. I suggested the ex-mining pool near MRR2 in Ampang - wonder why he replied my text oddly. Flooding another stuff prior to big day isn't helping my tight schedule. The bite was too severe, I bought my kids swimming goggles for each one of them - Father's Day gift : Speedo at 50% off from Studio R. Kids got new goggles, daddy got good bargain. I didn't get mine since all kiasus wallop everything for adults. If God permit and my swim progresses nicely, PD tri worth considering - at least the sprint cat. If not, some bricks after SCKLM could be useful for MUDS somewhere in early August. Slowly does it dude.

All in all, these are only laid out plans. No registration done yet which means I'm still open for options. The eyes will be set for something big after raya - Seri Manjung...hmmm alahai : The Sequel - coming soon to theatres near you XD

  4. Ijam, itu angan2 aje. We'll see how the swim part evolves. Races require us to train. Trainings make us more organised. That's what I think la.

    Syah, 30 minutes to your place and 30 minutes back. Mana aku nak sumbat swim & lunch? Ammah!

    RaYzeef bro, whether it's 2 or 3 alam, the ultimate will be Ilmu Alam! :)
