Malam Anugerah Sukan UTM 16 April

nothing much to say
just a normal dinner with some fancy award ceremony and shows
the food was great but only can add rice, haha
this year no more the much awaited lucky draw
not many kakithoners attended the function, only me, ong, gan, li ting, zaheen, ahmad, and tarif came
all the other kakithoners seem to be very busy, got final year project
nevermind, we will try organize another party to mark the end of this sem,
any suggestion?????
li ting was nominated to get the promising athlete award, but luck was no on her side, she loss to a national netball player,
hope one day, our athletic team can come out victorious in the event.
maju la sukan utk kakithon UTM ,hehe

UTM MTB Quest

the race already passed sometimes, but this few weeks are extremely packed with exams and final project, hehe
until now my final project almost 7788 already, so can bring my road bike home, have a rest, and train for towerthon
the day before the race, it rained the whole night,
this cause delay for the race as the organizer want to make sure that the route is safe for all participant
there is a lot killer steep hill, so plenty of down hill and up hill,
after i tumbled several times, i started to push my bike downhill, luckily Black was there to offer some useful tips to push the bike.
never did i realize that utm itself got such a great trail route,
just around 40 minutes into the race, i already started to push my bike uphill
all the elite cyclists tackle the hill with ease.
there were 5 check points, and we need to collect all the stickers, the total distance is around 30k
a very thrilling experience but also quite dangerous if one do not have proper handling skills and a decent bike.
ong finished just slightly out of top ten around 2 hours, kar sing and chow followed closely behind.
i took 3 hours to finish the race.
thanks a lot yo teck meng and siang teck for taking wonderful pictures and wait for us to come back especially me, haha
overall this is very great event, the route is terrific, the signage are helpful and easy to see, plenty of water and the best part the lucky draw.
gan and ong managed to get some great prize from the lucky draw. anyone who wanted to buy mountain bike rim can contact gan,hehe
just glad can finish the race in one piece, hehe

UTM Night Run

Date: 1st April 2011

The organiser changed the distance to 4 X 2.3km loop instead of 6 loop for siswa and 3 instead of 4 for siswi at the very last minute.

Somehow it is still quite a long race.

All kakithoners joined the run except for chan and hsiung.

This time, there was free t-shirt for everyone and the best part was the free registeration .

Somehow, the race started quite late and the registeration for runners was quite chaotic, else this was a great event.

Is was a wonderful outcome as zaheen and li ting manage to win their respective category with impressive timing. congrat to them ,hehe

ha, for me this time, I started out slow but slowly built up my pace just like what i usually do.

finished the 9.2km race in 35.25 min. Still got a lot need to improve.

there is a new international student who pace with me all the way until the third lap, which make me quite anxious as i never saw this guy before, hope he can join us too

Kar Sing arrived in style few minutes after the international student arrived.

the highlight of the night is not the result of the run, it is the surprise party for our respectful captain ong wei xiang.

Kar Sing took all the hassle to ask the organiser to make an special arrangement to present a birthday cake to ong when he went up the podium, he also bersusah payah to buy a special cake and ask Jenni to bring it over, haha. thanks alot bro, we trully appreciate your effort

luckily the organiser was kind enough to help, they also play the birthday song, perfect la,hehe

this event bring back the unity spirit of kakithon, everyone was happy and this was the 1st time ong smiled a lot.

applaud should also be given to chau, even though he was limping, he still make it join the surprise party and we certainly pray and hope that he will recover from his injury soon.

UTM Time Trial

A very disappointing event because only 5 people turned up for the masum selection trial out.
If the condition continue, there might be less support for us from Unit Sukan in the future.
We hope that all of you will remember our own responsible to university, to our team and also most importantly to ourselves.
It is very easy to keep an eye shut for certain things, and just pretend that it is not important.
Yes, it might not be important to ourselves for present moment, but the next generation will have to struggle in order regain the trust and support from Unit Sukan.
Hope we can always stay united even though there is no more team event in Towerthon.
Gan, Ong and Ah lo have clocked good timing and also promising room for more improvement.
Ha, for myself, i already try my best but just can finished 5k in 20 minutes, far from the required standard set by Unit Sukan.
Looking at the current condition, it seem like I were getting further from my target in masum.
Despite all my training and preparation, i am not on the right track to reach my goal.
Maybe my effort so far was not good enough, maybe 'try my best' is still not enough, i think i should reflect myself and find a way to break this 'barrier'
*pls, take note that we still have around 3-4 more stadium larkin training sessions before we end this semester. take the chance to do some pace training/running on track. it is really beneficial

Bareno Run 2011

One of the favourable run of the year

A huge turnout for this run, even though the registration fee is quite expensive and it is not held at strategically places, such as Dataran Merdeka . A lot can be learn from the organiser as they successfully attract the public to join the race. From starting of the race, there are a lot marshals along the route guiding and distributing the “pengikat rambut” to the runners. There a plenty of water stations and the best part, energy gel was provided for Half Marathon runners. After the race, there are abundance things to eat, cendol, tau fu fa, rean bean soup was offered to exhausted runners in great number.
Gan did very well in 10km races, placing 7th. Congrat to him. He has been very disciplined in training and always look for related information to update himself in running and cycling. Hope more kakithoner can have that kind of spirit.
I finished the race in 1 hour 46 min. Placing 70th. Not really a good run, a very significant indicator that shows how much i need to work harder and reflect on my training.
This year no more team event for towerthon, but we will still continue our training like usual, the spirit should continue. Hope, there will be a miracle.
Next week 25-27 march is the masum selection period.
Make sure everyone attend all the training session.
Time trial will be held at stadium larkin, 26 march.
Masum is on 21-23 june.
prepare well and hope for the best.
Pls come to find me to get your spike (1st come, 1st serve), size are limited.
Those who wish to join night run on 1st April, can pass the form to me by this week or you can directly register at unit sukan.
Pls be more proactive and alert with all the updates. Do let me know is there is any enquiry.
All the best for all the upcoming events.
