Ran about 1 km on the road, entered the Smart Tunnel and ran 6 km two way fro and finally 0.5 km on the road before reaching the finishing line. Never thought I could be one of the medalist compare to the number of competitors.....lamai mali loh...hampir 1500 olang..utk men open category shj. Finished the race in about 1:12:43.

Su was also one of the medalist in the women open. She,Makcik,Abang,Kakak,Azhar,Zahir and the other members ran basically in a desert like environment as there were no water at the water stations..OH boy......bayangkanlah...13,5 km without a sip of H2O....apa dah jadi....poor mgmt?. I met them after the race...semuanya letih nak mampus....nak bangun ambik gambar pun..tak larat..siot....Lepak sekejap....N ...Adios.
