62km position 36tth - got genting voucher
....................................................................

12hourswalk, another 5 days to go and my training not going so well, this is something i should be worried. i just dunno why this thing happening to me every time (expect better result before race then later regret for bad performance.)

i MUST change this attitude, the only way is TRAINING TRAINING TRAINING TRAINING.

42k

I don’t no whether can complete the race in sub 4 hours as targeted earlier.

Really worried what going happen to me during and after the races.

Hopeful I will not go thru the same experience in penang last year.

U might not believe me the way I prepared for the 42k .I have been running not more than 25k since bomba09 run till now . The final training was last week Sunday about 12k.

Recently I had sprained my right ankle while playing football and hurt my butt during oppp games. Hopeful this won’t affect my performance this Sunday even though I still can feel the pain
