Therefore not just one or two races - but more than five I can easily count - were scheduled for this date. That said, the... Continue Reading →

I did most of my running at the gym (True Fitness) and only does one on-the-road (OTR) run on Sunday evening at KLCC.On the treadmill, it's easy to pace and... Continue Reading →
