First wave of runners at 9:30 pm @ PoJ
Last Saturday we had a Night LSD session at PoJ. Many came to our first LSD session for the year, we accounted about 24 runners came that night. Some even drive all the way from Kuala Selangor, that’s what i called commitment!
The first loop (10km ish) we ran together, as to show the route to the first runners coming to Putrajaya. Then we all ran according to our pace or group pace. This LSD is to promote more runners embracing running beyond 42.2km – the Ultra distance.
We want more people representing Malaysia running Ultra Marathons all over the globe – hopefully one day our dream will be realised.
Our sabuns model for the night.
The Extramiler himself came to join us.
Nice to see you Alex, it’s been a long time since you ran Putrajaya.
Carin – our marshal on bike that night. Thanks for the support
When you got 24 runners running the first session, i guess we are on the right track. The distance covered that night ranging between 30km – 45km, i only managed 43km due to cherry berry during the run. The LSD started around 9:30 pm until 6:00 am the next morning.
Some of these runners already committed to TMBT and SD100 later this year. Thanks to all runners that came to our session, we will see you guys again next month – this is a monthly event at PoJ.
Sabuning session in progress
Come join us next session, bring your own hydration and food. Most importantly, bring your friendships. See you soon at PoJ.
I had fun though the wife said I tortured her too much by making her run faster than her usual pace till she had bad blisters ... hahaha! Definitely will be there for the next session.
