Powerman 2011

When : 13/11/2011
Where : Sri Manjung, Perak.
What : 11km run + 64km bike + 10km run

Manjung people said, it was raining season there for the last 2-3 weeks. But it’s turned to be scorching hot on the event day!!! No rain even in the early morning before the event. The heat was as same as 2 years ago where i did my first Powerman.

My unofficial timing was 4:33… and it’s a PB ;) ALhamdulillah.. that’s a bonus for me.. a big achievement for my hard work. Next year, of course will try a new PB again :)

 

The rewards, a nice medal and a Brooks finisher's t-shirt

 

For me, the medal & finisher’s T is secondary. The most important thing to me is the enjoyment of the gathering with my sports friends & doing what like together.

Powerman 2010 – Yet another PB

4

Venue : Sri Manjung, Lumut, Perak.
Date : 14 November 2010
Distance : 11km run + 64km cycling + 10km run

This year’s Powerman, i came with a target in mind. It’s to qualify within the 5hrs given time(getting the finisher’s T-Shirt off course), thus a PB for me.

Depart from KL a bit late, around 2:30pm, waiting for my friend Bedul(Shahrudisah) for his company training. The journey was accompanied with hot weather, but went smoothly. Arrived at Sri Manjung around 6:30pm, we went straight checking out the cycling route since this is Bedul’s 1st Powerman.

Reached Lumut Valley(our accommodation) around 7:30pm. It’s an apartment with 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms. Quite spacey and comfortable, worth the money since we r sharing it with 5 persons.

Went for dinner at KFC Lumut, surprised with a long queue there. Well, its a Saturday nite :P I like Lumut very much. It’s a small town, with a small jetty for tourist going to P. Pangkor. Unique, clean, friendly folks, not crowded, peace and i love to be there. Still remember last year’s Powerman, went for evening teh tarik at a stall by the jetty, on the evening after doing the Powerman, so relaxing…

Went back to apt, did my final prep for tomorrow’s race. Race bibs, bicycle, tri-suit, running & bike shoes, endurance drink, etc… Slept at 11.00pm.

Dah lepak2 tu, kitorang sambung perjalanan patah balik ke Bt. 14. Kali ni tak sampai Pangsun. Maybe next time.

Perjalanan ke Bt. 14 lebih senang. Menurun bukit. Singgah sebentar di kolam air panas depan IKBN. Rendam2 kaki jap, pastu teruskan ride.

Cycling @ Ulu Langat

Date : 7/2/2009
Venue : Ulu Langat

Hari ni aku training cycling sorang2 kat Ulu Langat, without my usual cycling mate. Kul 8.30am aku sampai di Pekan Bt. 14 Ulu Langat. Cuaca redup.

Aku kayuh slow2 jer ari tu sbb dah lama tak cycling. No pressure. Nak dekat2 sampai Pangsun tu, kepala aku mula dah berpinar. Dari tadi tak minum air sbb lupa bawak air. Adehhh.

Sampai jer bus stop kat Pangsun tu, aku cepat2 parking bicycle aku. Terus duduk kat bus stop tu, picit2 kepala. Rasa nak pitam pon ada. Aku terus berdiri jln mundar mandir sambil picit kepala. Finally lega jugak sakit kepala aku.

Rest jap ambik angin. Pastu sambung balik ride, patah balik ke Bt. 14.

Ni gambar2 yg aku sempat amik.
