Run, Run, Run.

It supposed to be a nice morning and me enjoying myself on my bed, ignoring the fact that i'm having the final exams just in a week time. I slept for two hours and got up at 5something to prepare for the City Run 08'.

Our Sports Teacher wanted us to go for this run. It should be my forth athletic event of the year, after the school-level 8km marathon, school-level Penang Hill Hike, and the Walk for Life, organised by Tesco Malaysia. (I seriously not interested in athletics. Other sports please!!!)

As the title said, City Run. It has around 2,500 of participants while 30something of it were us, 4SA5 boys. The marathon started off at Prangin Mall, with us 4SA5 boys shouting towards our CAT CM, and he actually waved us back!!

The run wasn't as far as we've expected, although it stated that it's 10km. Or maybe we were way too talkative troughout the run, speaking to almost everyone, greeting ppl a good morning even the polices and other participants. Basically, the run went around like this, Prangin Mall-Penang Road-Jln Sultan Ahmad Shah-Jln Cantoment-CRC-Jln Macalister-Prangin Mall. Erh, something like that lar.

Free flow of Milo! Wee~~

The best part of the event was not the run. You can see the photo above, so many people sitting there just for one dream,to bring home the grand prize of the lucky draw, a motorcycle EX5 (I got no idea what model is it as i know nothing about motorcycle.) Whatever speech, prize giving ceremony... No people has interest on that except for that motorcycle. Yeah, that's the typical attitude of Penangites. Everyone stood up and walked away just the second Emcee announced the lucky numbers after knowing that they were not the lucky ones. NOT EVEN A SINGLE ONE BOTHERS TO SEE WHO WON THAT GRAND PRIZE!!! Cheers, Penang kias.

By the way, i'm going to another three events after the exams.

Another city run, around Pulau Tikus this time, 9th of November 08. Jom lari!!

Penang Bridge International Marathon, the best ever marathon to be held in Penang. I'm going for just half-marathon (25km) as im ineligible for the full one. The registration time is 3am, so a movie at GSC, Queensbay Mall before the run perhaps? Anyone??

Lastly will be the famous one, the Penang Starwalk 08'. Another great event to spend time together with friends or family. Walk around, talk around, and bring home some prizes. That's nice. 14th Dec 08' for this event.

So everyone, do tell me if you're going for any of the above events, let's have fun there!!!
