Sundayt Morning Ride
Its been overwhelming as theres were more than we expected people than joined the ride,should be categorized as mass rideI dont really feel well yesterday,anyway that doesnt mean that i can ride well.Black with us together went to near the power plant station at sri putri there as to wait for the Abang Mus's group.Then came the group riders which around 20 person!This is consider huge for us,as we never ride in such big number of rider together.Then we went to senai town,selong(if not mistaken),Gunung Pulai area,Pekan Nanas,Ulu Choh,Bandar Baru Pulai then back to UTM.Th e speed considered above average,where some of them even ride more than 40km/h.I must admit that using my mountain bike is really hard to maintain the rthym with them.Anyway through out the whole race we manage to learn something which is really valuable for us.Thanks all the guys that participated.See you in more ride and races in future....

Hill training and its goodness
I have read through the runnersworld website and get to know that the fact behind the hill running.Hill running infact is a very good work out.People may think that its very tough and really tiring run up the hill .Anyway run up the hill really save us a lot of training time,injury prone chance also lowered,boost our performance,develope good speed and muscle power.Brad Hudson said "even a small amount of hill work could yield big results: a jump in leg strength, running economy--how efficiently your body uses oxygen--and aerobic capacity."
Hit the hill, but make it fast and short, and you get the maximum amount of training effect with the minimum amount of injury risk. "The best way to recruit fast-twitch muscle fibers is to run at max intensity," says Hudson. "The best way to build leg strength is hill running. So we run all-out up a steep hill. But we keep it to 10 seconds to avoid producing lactate and becoming fatigued." Running no more than 10-second repeats also reduces injury risk by limiting your fast-running time. And hills by their nature lessen the risk of injury because the slope shortens the distance you have to "fall" or land, reducing impact. "Studies of sprinting uphill show that the muscles are in constant 'overload' and the nervous system is firing hard," says Hudson. "It's the same speed benefit as track sprints, but safer."
The recommendation is after each set of runing up the hill,take rest time of around 2minutes of recovery.Hopefully that with all the infos that listed above,we can learn something which can help us a lot,especially for those lack of speed power people.Use this advantage to train yourself to a higher level.For more infos click here.

The news of PowerBar MUDS
I was informed by Tuan Penasihat,Black,that my news was published in Utusan Malaysia on 4th October 2008.Then i didn't really immediately go to buy the newspaper and wait until evening 6pm where i had training with lim.He wasn't felt well hence we only have easy ride to hill area around university and easy chit chat among us.Then we go to the Taman Universiti to buy the paper.I had been glad that my news been published can be said felt on the top of the world a while ha!Anyway thanks Black for telling me.I am still a beginner in the multisport events,hence i really need to put extra effort to perform the best out there.Sincerely i hope kakithoners can really capitalize the opportunity out there by training hard and smart.Its not easy to form a group which has so much enthusiasm ans semangat yang cekal.So lets us go together,no body will be left behind,believe in yourself,you can do it.........Kakithon Boleh!Then you as Kakithoner also Boleh!
