Why I Like To Run KLCC Park?

I work out in KLCC since May 2002. Never been to the park much. Except for this time somewhere in 2004 where the gym offer a free Polo T for running in the park. So I did just to get the T shirt.

Then during the bib collection for Energiser at Hotel Melia in KL, I saw the booth for the Adination. So I signed up and called up this person listed on the website named Ronnie See. And you say the rest is history..still in the making.

I didn't make it the first week I called up because it was running cats and dogs. So I met them first time on the 8 April 2008. There was Captain Ronnie of course, Richrad Habeya, and they were so fast. They were doing sub 5min/km for 1st lap. I tried to follow but eventually fizzled out. I clocked my 1st 5 laps with them with time of 37min 56sec. the total distance of 5 laps is 6.5 km.

I always put this time on my Facebook wall as a reminder of where I have started from. 6 weeks later I achieved my PB for 5 laps which still stands today at 31min 58sec. An improvement of almost 6 mins. I think that was the only time I beat my dear brother Shafiz Sazanuza.

Nowadays I still float about 32-33mins for 5 laps. The best is yet to come..
