Admiral Methodist Charity Run 2010

16th September, 2010 (Hari Malaysia)

 
As the name suggests, this is a charity run and a good turnout of participants despite it being held on a public holiday . The route is all flat and straight around Bandar Botanic east and west walk.  The water station was at half way mark at 3km. Everyone seems to have a jolly good time, with a dose of morning exercise and earning each a finisher medal to cherish at the end....me included :) I was feeling a bit under the weather and could have stayed at home instead but that did not deter me to join in the fun. 

Before the run, after much observation, I noticed  some  runners enjoying their breakfast of nasi lemak 20 mins before start. A last minute  pre carbo loading, I presume or probably a free meal  provided by the organizer. Although it was a small scale run but it was quite well organized and certainly have that kind of  atmosphere where everyone were doing their part in the name of charity.

 
The finisher medal for the effort put in and doing my bit for charity at the same time.

Try to spot me if you can.

"Chase me if you can." Looks like REAL!!!

We decided to skip the lucky draw.

I felt something was missing though and much to my amusement as we were about to leave the venue, the gardenia bread van just arrived in time. We turned back and make a beeline for it. And that sort of makes a fun run a complete fun run event!

Happy Malaysia Day!
