The Slowmovers....


Sun, 30th March 2008, Dataran Merdeka...
The KLIM 2008 saw yet another domination by the Kenyans..
N we slowmovers..added some spice to it.... N as for me..
semuanya serba tak kena... Y?.........????
The day b4 the run ...kepala terhantuk kat pintu almari...,Jari tangan terseliuh..tak dapat tidur...pagi tu pula... roti no stock, makan pun tak seberapa..sampai about 5.45 am kat Dataran... cuba warm up...tapi engin cam tak nak start aje...

Sharp 6.00am... the start of the 21k tour around KL. I ran slow cos couldn't go any faster..entah apa dah jadi...may be lack of trainning.. kot...first 14 km ...ok aje... was among the familiar top runners..N here comes the "D"... felt a kind of ...pain...pedih rasaaaaaaaanya!!!..bila terkena peluh..kat peha..stopped n saw that both my thighs..dah melecet siot... bergeser dgn inner part of the branded shorts... rasa cam nak tanggalkan seluar tu ...tapi cuma tak nak publisiti...aje...! so just walk n run n walk....then ...the last 3 km...lapar pula...memang very the lapar sampai tak larat nak berlari...but still keep on to run N walk N walk N run...Finished at timing of 2:12:01..Ok juga...drp rasa nak quit yang timbul thru out the last 3 "D" km tu. Well Nothing is Impossible N semuanya kena ada some sort of bitter or sweet experiences for it to be remembered....Terus gasak 5 cups of cereal N milo....ahhhh...kenyaaang sikit...!

The Great "Abang" did the Slowmovers proud by completing the Marathon...I will be doin mine soon.Syabas to Abang N to Mr Sheikh too for running 10k 4 the first time N to the rest of the Slowmovers. Su,kak,Makcik,Javier,Myself,Fuzahir N Fairul did the 21k tour while Sheikh,Hasif,Hazreen,Haiezan N Jaya did the 10k tour. Well Done!!! ....Waited for the "Thing" to collect my key N terus adiossssss..!!! cos tak tahan rasa pedih N lapar (stomach semacam aje..)!

A date with Supernova...

Thursday..7th February 2008...TTDI Lembah Kiara Park.....
It's Chinese New Year...and Welcome to the Rat...So thought of tryin out the new Adidas Supernova... took her for a date N kissed her with my feet for about 30 mins...more than 6 km. Didn't wanna go far as it was new N I do have bad experiences with new shoes...!!!

She was a kinda of- heavy compare to my previous shoes but it really gave me the comfartableness..spongy...cushioning N cooling which makes you feel like wanna go further n further...suitable for long distance running.!... Everytime when I hit the ground, I felt smooth landing ... Good Absorbtion N no squeaky sounds ..less impact to my knees...!!

The Formation feature supports fine as I ran in uneven roads. it adjusts well to the condition....
She doesn't moves much while running N gives a good grip...!!!
More coming soon as this was just a short date... a longer one coming soon... stay tune...! Adios...!!!

The Adidas Supernova 7- Impossible is Nothing

The Supernova Cushion 7...


Happy Chinese New Year !!!...

What ..! Supernova 7.... Yeap..! it is but you have to test it N submit the report..that's the only condition...to own it.!. I got it from Mr Krishnan, the Head of Running at the Adidas office in Plaza Damansara. It was very kind of him to entertain me although he was in a mid of a meeting. Gave me a UK 7.5 white/blue/greyish eye catching shoe...the one above... Thank You sir...!

Why Supernova 7 ....cos it was designed with 7 new features /technologies which makes it one of best long distance running shoes to take you far and fast.....( depends on the runners too...their shape of the foot,weight...etc)

The 7 features.... which I would like to test it out...in all my trainings and runs...
-Geofit at ankles
-Nylon linings and molded dual layer for quick dry
-adiPRENE midsoles to absorb shocks
-adiPRENE under forefeet to retain natural forces,
-Torsion system at midfoot to allow rotation between rearfoot and forefoot-surface balance
-ForMotion- free movement- allows the feet to adapt and adjust the ground strike for forward momentum
-adiWEAR- rubber outsoles for durability in high wear areas which offers lightweight grip n cushion

How effective are these technologies?... will be updated as the shoe is being tested..till then...keep browsing....Bye !!!... GONG XI FA CAI !!!...
