Another trail running after Genting Trailblazer, what am i putting myself into this time...giloss..since i had no plans on that day..well another trail run would not hurt kan....Me and Bro Ian this time around...Abg Syah could not make it due to some Kenduri matters....i guess he must had enough of trail running kot...heheh. We started our journey from KL at around 5.30 am stop by at Shell near Sungkai i think...Subuh kejap then move on....called the organiser to confirm the start time...per..8.00 am..gulp can we make it, with the aid of F1 driver by the name of Bro Ian, we did make it to the race's starting area ,Kompleks Rakan Muda Kampar..get ourself registered..to my surprise i number is A080 (my bday year) ..kan lucky number ke? mmmm
Not many participants this time around, but there are regular faces, it could be they are elite power bar group, we were flaged off at 8.00 am, the first 3 km of the race was tarmac route leading to Batu Berangkai Waterfall, isk some sorts like Tampin, Negeri Sembilan Mountain Circuit...
The trail leading up to the peak..were mixed of runnable and power walkable...in my opinion the trail is milder than Nuang... we almost got lost..during the run..in the midst of the run..we missed out the race markers..per...we hike up to to wrong route..nasib baik ler there are few of us..or else sesat ler aku...wasted about 30 minutes there...
Finally after 2 hours and 45 minutes hiking , we managed to reach the top..with our hydration pack almost empty..mine is..had our rest and some snacking...mini mars and snickers. The downhill was tough..but i kept on running while Bro Ian had move on further down..we managed to refill our hydration pack...i'm more confident to run when i'm hydrated,,dont want the cramps to slow me down..or kill off my running moods..
Reached the finishing line, at about 12.00 pm, the last leg of the race the Tarmac routes was killing me, with the scorching afternoon sun...per..almost fried ler ..well done steak...
(us at the top)The Final Verdict: Total time 4 hours and 34 minute , end up with nothing...not even a cert...mm but the trail was fun...
jelesss laa hehehe... sori la tak boleh join (no, I have not had enough of trails) sebab we had a kenduri doa selamat for late f-i-l before my m-i-l balik Alor Setar this week, and I promised wifey to help her cook. InsyaAllah I'll join you guys in the first leg next year, get ready haaaa...
