Cool Trekkers minus me

Yanti

Can't believe it, it has been 9 years since the first AmBank Challenge and again we gets to compete the only endurance race in AmBank. Trailblazer have send their best team which consist of Atan the Tiger, As, Djohan and Pah (first timer). Meanwhile, Cool Trekkers is headed by Yanti. This time the race is held at Pangsun, Ulu Langat.

The race starts with orienteering (rather odd) and pool crossing. TB struggle to complete this course and 3 of their members have totally exhausted. Their race virtually has ended here. CT manage to cross it easily as all of them knows how to swim. The race proceed with river scrambling, wall climbing, paintball target, puzzle, archery and about 6km of on the road and jungle running. Phew..just thinking of it made me sweat.

At the end CT gets 10 placing and TB gets 11 placing. Pah famous quote`tobat aku taknak masuk lagi' remind ourselves on our first AmBank Challenge. As usual the `tobat' is `tobat cili padi, habis pedas buat lagi' and I'm sure we haven't seen the last of her yet. All in all, not a bad result as these teams are new although their members are not (chuckle). Hope to see them again next year in the tenth edition.

The race 14km jungle trekking plus some `mandi lumpur' obstacle at the end of it has surely made our day. Anuar the `bidan terjun' has shown he has what it takes to finish the course. Devi perform well. Our second team Ija is really unfit and needs some serious training. All in all it is a good experience for the two teams. Me has to skip this event due to `demam kura-kura'. Thanks to Anuar who able to participate despite the `really' short notice given (at 4.30am raceday). I'm sure he will join us again in the next race.

10km

As we have complained earlier in the previous run, this time the organiser did gave us a water station at the 5km point. However, most of the `kaki komplen' did not participate in this event. So Syed dominates, muSang pandan and Djohan BIG apples unable to give any real challenge. The musang has quote that he can only perform at night time (maklumlah musang!). The time as follows:

Syed 71mins
Erra Coklat 74mins
Djohan 80mins
Yem 83mins
Ija 90mins

Dataran Merdeka
10km

Our last effort through this dreaded route is somewhere in April 2007. Nine of us turn up for the event (15 registered). Most who did not turn up have various reason such as demam kura2, pi candat sutong, semalam telebih keja and tak sanggup lawan pelari Kenya. However, it is quite heartening to `hear’ that our almost extinct runner Yem aka Chua Jui Meng and Atan adalah Tiger did compete in the event. Note: hear simply means most of us did not `see’ them at the event (pemalu sangat la tu).

Well at press time, the following are our official time:
Syed – 71mins
Ewan – 73mins
Atan – 75mins
Erra adalah Coklat – 75mins
Yem – 85mins (frust tak dapat kalahkan pelari Kenya)
Ija – 90mins
me – 100mins (a new club record, alasannya air takde).

Good work guys. The next event is Larian Bersama Abang Bomba. Same route (arghhhh!!) and hope there is a water station at the 5km point.

Orange Run

Date: 13 April, 2008
Venue: The Curve
Distance - 9km

Heavy rain in the morning has not dampen us to participate in the Orange Run. Accept for the newlywed Ad and Syed (biasala....kan hujan), the musang pandan (takut hujan la tu) have came and conquer. To our surprise Atan adalah Tiger has given us a scare by performing really well in his first run after all these years. Saber our own `harapan' to beat the Kenyan is not so bad either. The time as follow:-

Jnul - 53 mins -mentang2 la kak long takde.

Djohan - 59 mins

Ewan Ensem - 60 mins

Atan adalah Tiger (meow) - 61 mins

Erra Coklat - 69 mins - pelari dr Jamaica.

Saber - 70 mins

me - 73 mins - dia ni mcm lari 10km aje.

Yanti - 73 mins 5 saat - hahahaha

Ija - 85 mins

AhKam - disqualified sbb naik keta dengan Alice.

AmBank KL Marathon

2008-03-31T16:49:00.010+08:00

Date: 30th March, 2008
Dataran Merdeka

Here we go again, the first run participated by majority of our runners this year. The turnout is absolutely fantastic, despite without the likes of Jnul and AhKam (have a run in Jakarta) our runners are very competitive indeed. As we can see in 21km Ewan finishes first at 2.35, follows by Djohan at 2.40 and the Pengantin at 3.00. Meanwhile, in the 10km category:

As - 1.10 (ikut short cut la tu)

Erra the Coklat - 1.14 (main tipula tu!)

me - 1.19 (ni aje yang tak main tipu) tahniah3x

Yanti - 1.20 (no komen)

Ad - 1.30 (semalam dah buat 42k, hari ni slow sket)

Ija - 1.30 (biasala....kan dah namanya sweeper)

Hope to do better in our next run which is the ORANGE run.

Selamat Tahun Baru 2008

2007-12-31T11:13:00.000+08:00

Hello Cool Runners and affiliates,

We have quite a fruitful year. It is quite astonishing that we have participated in 14 events (on my count) and runs more then 150km on the event alone. I guess if we include training then we should have reach the 300km mark. So u guys who bought their running shoes in January can still continue to use the shoes as the average running shoes have a lifespan of 500km (untuk yang kedekut la).

Wishing u all a Happy New Year 2008 and Happy Running. Hope to see u guys next year and hope we can continue running together for years to come.

Mizuno Wave Run

2007-09-09T14:14:00.000+08:00

Well the run certaintly fits the billing as d' wave run. Indeed we didn't see much of those flat terrain as much as we liked to. Most of the time we need to tackle the `bukit bukau' along the way. Anyway it is one of those run you shouldn't miss. I guess all of us look forward for the challenge. Ewan have made great progress along the years. He leads this time at 64mins, follows by Jnul 70mins, Erra (kena potong last 100m dengan Jnul) 70mins 3secs (hahaha), me 75mins, Ad 82mins (salah strategi katanya), Jue! 82mins (welcome back) and Ija 90mins. I think Ujie did quite well too, most probably better then me (time rahsia katanya). So guys, until next time, I wish you all a great Ramadan. Take a good rest and prepare for our next challenge which is the Trailblazer in Genting Highlands.

Shah Alam Run

2007-09-02T16:06:00.001+08:00

Most of us have a late start at the run today. Shah Alam is certaintly not Dataran Merdeka. The flag off at seven is great but we didn't make it in time, some of us didn't make it at all. I guess the route is not quite up the standard 10km. We should have a better timing here as it is a shorter route. As is not around as she is competing in the Interbank Athlete meet (good luck to her), so I don't have the timing for her prodigy this time round. Erra Coklat finish at 60mins (placing no 12 tepuk-tepuk-tepuk), Ewan 65mins (problem badan lambat panas), Ija at 80mins (badan tak panas-panas) and Ah Kam at 105mins (badan terlebih panas). Special mention here my friend Yanti managed the 10km at 72mins (nasibla aku tak masuk).

Before the puasa month starts, I hope to see u all at the Mizuno Run next week.

Subang Jaya Run

2007-08-26T14:56:00.001+08:00

Cool Runners seen the action at Subang Jaya today. This run is one of the running event where most of us got sponsored for running (means our company's pay the fee to run). Hmm..we have AhKam around this time...he did manage to arrive on time and finish the race. Here's the result Ujie 56mins, Ewan 57mins, As 59mins, Erra 66mins, me 69mins, Yeo 70mins, Ija 85mins and Ah Kam our super sweeper at 105mins (Mana yang lain ooii, daftar punyalah ramai?) Next stop Shah Alam Run. Happy 50th Merdeka day everybody. Merdekaaaaaaaa...........

PJ Half Marathon

2007-08-12T15:54:00.000+08:00

Although it is called Half Marathon, all the Cool Runners have decided to enter the 10km race only. It is simply because we felt the route is quite unsafe considering the high volume of traffic on the highway. Even in 10km, most of the time the runner needs to cross the road without any official or police in sight. Nevertheless, we do have a good race and each gets to bring home a nice goody bag. The unofficial timing recorded are as follows: Fendi (38mins), Ewan (51mins), Ujie (51mins), me (56mins), As (56mins), Erra (56mins), Yeo (68mins) and Ija (76mins). Jnul and Chin Taiko are absent due to other commitments.

Can u spot Ujie and Erra in the crowd?

2007-07-31T21:20:00.002+08:00

Again only two runners took part name Ewan and Jnul who recorded 51mins and 53mins respectively in this 10km event. Wish I was there. Erra and Ija is not well so I need to skip this one.

Larian Kuala Lumpur

2007-07-31T21:20:00.001+08:00

Hmm...only two of our gangs Erra and Jue! actually took part in this event at Taman Melawati. We can consider this as an un-organised running event. Actual distance is not to be known (rahsia). The huha surrounding the starting point is quite shameful. Some of the Malaysian runners has tried to block the Kenyan from running. I am wondering if Malaysian runner being treated the same if they are competing in Kenya? Malaysian is well known for their `Jaguh Kampung' attitude. Lazy and unable to compete physically or mentally. Too bad. I wish Malaysian can change their attitude and follow sports icon such as our own Nicol David, she can take on any opponent, any time fullstop.

AmBank Challenge VIII

2007-07-31T21:18:00.000+08:00

The AmBank has organised their eight edition of AmBank Challenge. For me it is the most challenging todate. We are sending two teams to the competion, Trailblazer have snatch the scond spot while the Cool-Runners team (me, As, Aziz and Jnul) managed a seventh place out of 60 teams competing. It is quite a suprise that the Trailblazer with Ewan, Ad, Halim Kacak and Atan Tiger manage to finish 1 hour earlier then the Cool-Runners (I guess this is the result of their `trening rahsia'). Congratulations to all, I am anxious to compete again with them next year. Bring it on.

Siemens Run

2007-07-08T13:25:00.000+08:00

Wawaweewa...There's a lot of absentees in todays run. Jnul (demam pura2), Jue! (demam kura-kura), Ewan (pegi trening rahsia) and AhKam (macam biasa over slept). So only a few of us runs today. Ujie is in pole position with an unofficial time of 61mins followed by Erra (69mins), As (70mins), me (72mins) and Ija (95mins).

Penang Bridge Marathon

2007-06-26T13:30:00.000+08:00

Cool Runners first run in Penang Bridge. The hilly and smelly route of 22.3km really tested our endurance. Jnul manage to clock 2hrs 20mins followed by Erra 2hrs 45mins (good improvement) and Ewan 2hrs 50mins. Meanwhile, me and Ija has recorded 3.00hrs plus. The accomodation at USM is good as it is situated near the starting point and the food in Penang is marvellous. We did manage to eat at Nasi Kandar Line Clear after the run (lepas lari apa pon sedap, ya tak?). Next event Siemens Run. See you.

It has been quite sometimes since our last event. The route is a killer, most of the time we needs to run in a hilly road in Bukit Tunku. It is a challenge for all of us to finish the race. As predicted Ujie leads with 88mins followed by Jnul (95mins), Ewan (98mins), As (105mins), Yeo (111mins), ezaad (115mins), Erra (118mins) and Ija (135mins). ChinTaiko has suffered some injuries during the race. Hope to see our other runners who are injured to comeback soon namely jue!, Krul and dJohan. We miss u guys.

Happy ending.

2007-05-06T14:19:00.000+08:00

Today is a wet race day. As it is raining the whole morning, AhKam and Jnul continues with their sleep. Jue!, dJohan and me unable to participate due to injuries. Krul and Syed are the man to beat today. In term of performance, the Cool Runners did pretty well. Krul leads at 62m, Syed (63m), Ewan (64m), As (69m), Erra (71m), Ad (76m), Yeo (79m) and Ija (89m). Some of us may not be taking part in the next event that is New Balance 15k run and Larian Asma. So the next ten km will be somewhere in June. Until then keep on training and improving.

The Cool Runners has participate in the Kledang Challenge 2007. In a team of four the participants has to cross Gunung Kledang from Menglembu to Kg Bekor, Manong in 24 hours. The navigation need to be done by compass as there are no trail available. Our team is the only team which consist of three female/one male and we were proud to be able to finish the race in 10 hours. Thank you very much to Tuan Haji Johar, the President of Persatuan Mendaki Negeri Perak for organising a very interesting event. We will look forward to participate in the same event next year. Meanwhile, me has manage to`seliuh' the leg while trying to overtake the commandos hahaha:) Ad dan Jue! sukalah dengar berita nih:(

Some of you may asked what happen to our Ujie and Jue!. Well, I really has to apologises to Ujie as `again' I have mistakenly register her in the woman 7km category instead of the usual 10km. Meanwhile, our favorite runner Jue! has sustained an injury to her right leg at km6 (merasa dia naik bas). I guess it's happen while she's trying to overtake Maz and Annie (tulah Annie, bagi je la dia potong). Ad is really3 happy after beating me this time round and Ewan has manage to overtake Jnul for the first time (nampaknya trening rahsia telah membuahkan hasil:) It's afun outing, hope to see you guys in Larian Bomba.

The 9km run is quite tough as there are quite a number of hill that the participant needs to endure. I did not list the time taken taken today (sori arr..ad). Anyway for the first time Krul is number one, follows by As and the rest. Congratulation guys, hope to see you all in the Power Run next weekend.

Most probably they and some of us will have to wear the Bank RED shirt. Kalau tak diaorang akan tarik balik `sponsorship'. Hmm...macam tu senang sikit nak cam kekawan kita tu. Ingat cuba `beat' sume kawan-kawan kita kat AmBank tu. So good luck and try your best.

Congratulations

Today, the cool runners have successfully participated in the Larian Terowong Smart with a total distance of 13.3km. Despite some shortcomings (tak cukup air, takda span dan takda tukang urut), our team has managed to finish the race with good timing. Jnul is the best (sebab takda Ujie la tuh) and for ladies Erra is in the pole position (sebab aku tak masuk kategori pompuan untuk race kali ini). The official cool runners time are as follows:-

Jnul 1.27
Ewan 1.33
Erra 1.34
As 1.36
Jue 1.43
Ezaad 1.48
Yeo 1.52
Aniza ++
Krul ++
AhKam ++

For me. I have a terrible race. Bayangkanlah Jue dan Erra pon boleh potong aku, kalau tak pasal kaki Krul tu 2nd hand dan AhKam terlebih makan, dah lama dia orang potong aku. Alasannya kali ini ialah aku tak minum pagi hahaha. It’s okay. I’m looking forward to improve in the next run the KLIM’s 21k. Jagalah korang.
