| Trail route and trail elevation profile. At most, 130m gain over the 11km. Can be considered as "flat"and runnable |
Here are some highlight you will or might see around the course, that is, depending how fast you run and where you look. :)

| Trail head starts after 1km of tarmac |
 |
| First Bump |
 |
| This small bump - twice |
 |
| View from the top of the small bump |
 |
| Around KM6. See how small the two Ironman Marshall were? Another Small bump lah. |
 |
| Majority of the trail is like this |
 |
| I can imagine some of you running down fast on this |
 |
| NOT edible ya |
 |
| Crossroad |
 |
| Red gravel with highway size trails that you can sprint as fast as you can |
 |
| Over? Under? Rolling? Crawling? |
 |
| We like this too much, we do it TWO times |
 |
| If First time you do not succeed |
 |
| Try and Try again |
 |
| The romantic UPM lake |
 |
| Don't Be lazy and sleep ya... |
See you all tomorrow!
This is helpful Ee Van. I can't wait for my first Salomon run. Hope to see you tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteSee You tomorrow. Please say hi when you see me!
DeleteThanks bro... look forward to my first trail run. This is my home ground as I'm a UPM student :)
ReplyDeleteSir, See ya! Say HI when you see me!
DeleteHi Ee Van! Me and the girlfriend met you at Brooks yesterday. We wanted to say thank you and that we appreciate your tips and advice very much. So much so, that we ended up getting the Adrenaline GTS 12 for myself and the Ghost 5 for her (at RM 150 off each!) :D
ReplyDeleteYour site is such an inspirational read, and though we're fairly new at this, we hope to run 42kms someday. Your passion, knowledge and willingness to share it can only do good, we know it made a whole lot on us :)
Thanks Again,
Iylia & Jihan
Hello Iylia (and Jihan). :)Nice to meet you both too. I was just helping Peter as he was alone in the shop and just sharing what i know about shoes. I am constantly looking for bargain and couldn't resist one.
DeleteWe all start somewhere and when i started, there was no one to show or guide. Pay it forward with the knowledge that you learnt. Run safe and hope to catch you both again one day. Happy that i made two new friends yesterday at the Brooks shop. :D
It was great fun running that route yesterday! You guys who are involved in the race are AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteChuckled at the sight of the lembu. One was making so much noise when we passed by and with the majority of the back-runners (US lah) stopping and taking photo of it scratching against a tree. xD
p.s. Wish I saw this post before the run. :)
THANKS!
Lina - Oh yes, We had fun cycling the route and i had many offers (monetary) to take my bike and i run. :)
DeleteThat bull (Frisian cow) was on heat...or maybe he was just happy to see so many pretty girls running around ;-)
Well done on finishing the cross trail run!
