Newton Challenge 2015, Run For it 09, Forest Trail Run 2015

Finally having time to compile my notes for my blog,
Its been awhile, currently too busy doing errands my daytime work( agricultural farming/ House Repair etc)..
First of all it was a 3 in a row Race. Ive been constantly training for 3weeks plus just after my trip from Nagano.And trying to put as much mileage i could during those 3 weeks. My moto for now is doesnt matter or dont care training session. Just try hard to put in my KMs as much until Im FLAT! (LOL) if Malay says it Training Sampai Lebam. Anyways i didnt get until 110km this time. As for AUG-October i was doing 90-110kms a week.
But luckily it paid of during these races.

 Forest Trail Run 2015, Mens Open 9KM (GPS 8,6KM// 39,27Mins) 4th Place.
Run For It 09, Setia Alam Mens Open 12KM (12.4GPS// 49.10mins) 2nd Place


Newton Challenge 2015 Mens Open 15KM (14.95GPS// 1hr 01min ) 2nd Place.
SUMMARY:

Forest Trail Run 2015.
At first i was skeptikal i could fit into podium for this race as it was only Top5 (recently alot of races have dropped from top10 to top5 ) So i had to train really hard for this. And put in enough effort/ rest as much possible. Luckily managed 4th position right behind Jasni, these route was familliar to us as we did it earlier this year for EventBiz. My timing improved by 2mins in this race.

Run For It 09 2015. Setia Alam
As i warmed up for this race, I was alot of Podium Runners in my category. So was thinking maybe i can just at least get num5 or 4. I started slow didnt push too much during the first 6km. Just follow the 2 runners infront of me and not overtake them because their strength is same as mine.
As for the race Im happy and surprised that i won cash( I hardly go for cash race). And the organizers are very good and very well organized (Many organizers in Klang area are Runners themselves and they know what their doing :) ).
But as for the race not too happy with my time my target was 48mins. Maybe something went wrong during the run or i need to do more homework!

Newton Challenge 2015. Giant Puchong
Started out the first KM 4-5th position. As Wei Xiang was bringing the pace. But hes too fast for me.
So i slowed down because this is a 15km race. So i need to save enough endurance for the 5km Ending. It was a hilly route but i like it!! Did it last year but suffering as for no Hill Training at all,
Anyways the distance this year was 14.95 , Last year was 14.5 km ( i think) . But my time was not too bad. I targeted at least 59.30 mins but i was slow the first 10km. But my endurance improved. Average pace was 4;05, Last year it was 4.25.



So thats it. Final Race of the Year. I hope i can become better/ healtheir next coming years. Thx for reading my blog :)
