7k Sutera Harbour Sunset Charity Run

I've been contemplating to blog about my KL trip.  It was fun and not so fun for me to the extent that I did not wanna talk about it.  On another note...

It's my 3rd time joining the 7k Sutera Harbour Sunset Charity Run.  No difference between the previous years, t-shirt + registration fee of RM28 (Increased by RM3 I think).  It rained at 3:30pm, do not care, I still just gonna run.  I brought along my camera this time around, thinking that I could catch some familiar faces for some photo.  But I manage to crosspath with some and did not take photo with.  I am sad.  I though, manage to take photo with the bunch that started with me.



Look at my shirt.  I look like I'm wearing pyjama.  Heck, my mum thought I didn't wear any pants leaving the house.  Seriously mum?


I think this year was fastest I've completed for this event.  37 mins 44 sec for 6.28km.  No, it doesn't mark at 7km.  I did not know how they measure 7km.  I never get 7km before.  According to my watch that is.  This year, start in front, but I guess it's still not consider front cause more people line up beyond the starting line and totally made our front as middle.  I was planning to just maintain 6:30 mins pace throughout but end up doing below 6 mins pace.  *fespam.

Also, I reach there around 4:30pm and left by 6:30pm.  OMG!  I'd stayed longer previous year.

On another note, I was running with this blister I had got from previous workout.  And it sort of expanded during my previous runs.  And for this run, blister got expanded.


I was in the state of limping last night and I sort of sleep late last night cause I was replying all the notification on facebook.  I know I know, I should spend less time on facebook, but I can't help it sometimes.

So, I woke up after 3 hours of sleep.  Tried walking, I was still limping.  Taped my foot after shower.  I can walk!  It's a miracle.  Well not really, I'd still have some minor pain from stepping.  For a moment there I thought I'm screwed.  Supposely do 16km but cut down to 12km due to this foot condition of mine.  Maintaining 6:30 mins pace throughout, till I reach 9km, I can feel my blister pop again.  At that moment, I thought, I'm definitely screwed but I kept going till the end.  Completed 11.8km instead.  But, not so great for my foot.

Blisters on my left foot and the tapes on my right foot were bloody.


So I guess I won't be running till this thing heals?  We'll see.  Now to wash that bloody shoe.

    1. Hi,

      Thanks for dropping by. I wish I could do more post but lately I've been slightly distracted. Hey 41mins is still a good time.

      Yeah blister got really bad when I continue running on Sunday. Went to the doctor today though. Got infected but doctor already gave me medicine to fix that. Thanks again.
