RunWild (3rd Series) - 09/09/18

Finally, here come the 3rd series of Run Wild at MARDI, UPM. Arrived the event place around 6:30am. The run started at 7:30am.

It's 7am, 30 minutes to go before the race starts.

7:11am. Still waiting for runners to arrive

The last series of the year in December....crash with my primary school mates gathering trip, from 7 Dec to 9 Dec 😅. Need to figure out whether can arrange something out or not.

The running route and some sponsors details.

Mike is giving briefing about running routes and safety information before the race starts.

Yes, I done it, awesome ! 😃

Timing was 1 hour 12 minutes, it's better than the last RunWild in Semenyih.

 I was observing my heart rate during the run. The max was 181 bpm and it's above my average max of 170 bpm, but I never slow down. 😃

 The route recorded by the watch.

The hardest route was from 3.7km where we have to ascent from altitude of 68m to the highest 147m at 5km.  It took me 13 minutes to run a distance of 1.3km.

 Finally, the result. Overall position 55th and in my category, I was 8th out of 23 runners. Not bad huh 😁

RunWild @ Paradize Valley - 25/3/18

My 2nd time to participate in this event. Last run was on 3/12/17 at MARDI. A totally different experience compare to running on the road. Not only stamina but perseverance as well. I started to like such event and look forward for next event in July.

The run was held at Paradise Valley in Semenyih, it is located further inside after the Broga Hill. It was very well-organized by a gentleman name, Mike. All participants were giving a briefing before the run started, including the marking at each point and junction up on the hills.

Comparing to the normal on-the-road running event, the participants for this is lesser. Maybe they do not like to run off-road ?

It's 7.21am, almost time to flag off.

Mike was giving a briefing before the run started.

Completed my run at about 8.45am.

9.23km @ 1 hour 13 minutes. What is my position in my category, will find out later.

Running route

Average speed was at 7.5km/h

Running bib number and finisher medal.

 9th place among 22 runners in this category. Not bad huh  :)
