SEREMBAN HALF MARATHON 2010 - Sub 2 hours mission completed!! he, he..

Seremban Half Marathon, another episode.

Our nightmare of no water station from previous episode still haunting us.

But this time, the organizer take it to another level as they provided the water station (every 5 km ..kot..) with an additional sponging station (2 stations).


Before the race, I met with KD and irwan they’re Ms Pui San’s friends. KD is from KK i wondered KK meant for Kota Kinabalu or Kuala Kangsar...



Then we headed to the starting point and bump with deo, Lawrence and hamidon.


Me, Hamidon, Lawrence and deo


the padang




Met Zaki at the starting point. The guns off at 6.45am, after a few hundred metres running, Dett, diket and haza is tailing behind us.

Slow down to join haza and diket. But soon after Haza making a surprise by maneuvering at Shell petrol station for a quick ..ehem…

And then, it’s me, diket, zaki, deo and hilmi running together. Not for long, me, Diket and Hilmi are breaking from the pack to go a little bit faster than the Kenyans…

And it’s all the way 3 of us maintaining the pace together, until we overtook dett (power tu..). Half way met with rusfarizal (hancik) making his sub 2 target move.

I try to keep on with hilmi and diket because they were too damn fast. A slight pain at my stomach emerged suddenly…ooo…man…I push it with my hand to ease the pain and continue following the two speed demon (hantu)  runners…

Me, diket, Hilmi and rusfarizal are making our way to the last physco hill where the route combined with 10km runners or budak2 sekolah jalan lenggang2 route.

Running up hill, I try to break away from the quartet and become a solo runner making my way to the finishing line. I managed to push myself to the limit and clocked sub 2..hehe…but the joy is not for long when I looked at my watched, it indicated the route is shorter few metres…well…dah penat lari ni.!!! So, accept what ever result lah…

my custom made bib number with floral motive

Thanks to Diket, Hilmi and Ruzfarizal for their crazy pacing

finishing trio, hailmi, hanchik, diket


jeng, jeng...sub 2 hours...Time : 1 hour 57 minutes 36 seconds, distance 20.39 KM, short of 610 metres je...(thanks to Zaki for the mathematical calculation..huhu..)

  8. Good job Ijam. Technically not that much understated with the total distance. Wasnt as bad as what Haza claimed to be a km or two below. Oh and i am just nitpicking here. Its 0.61km short of 21km, which in metres is 610 metres. But you guys had fun kan :)

  24. Ijam, yupp bib memang besar gila. Too bad I couldn't cut it shorter sebab I have a 3-digit number. Mencucuk ketiak wo time lari.

    And good lah the actual distance is just 610 meters short. So, can consider my time as PB lah like that. Yeay! Hehehehe
