LOTR: Living On The Run

Flashback #SCKLM2016 – First 42K on home ground!

May 20, 2017

It felt strange and almost a privilege, being able to take a car down right to the heart of the city on raceday for the Standard Chartered KL Marathon. Why this folly? I had signed up for the Full Marathon category – my first at the SCKLM, my previous two having been at the Borneo [...]

Looking forward to SCKLM 2016!

May 19, 2016

It’s awesome to see the Standard Chartered KL Marathon (SCKLM) return with a bang for its 8th year! After being ‘hazed out’ in October 2015 (and not before it went through a date change ordeal that runners would recall), 7 August 2016 is the date set in runners’ diaries for [...]

Lucozade Sport™ launches ‘Fuel Your Performance’ campaign

May 17, 2016

I reached the Lembah Kiara Park just before 9am with the kiddo in tow, armed with sunscreen. It turned out I didn’t need the sunscreen after all; the rows of Lucozade flag banners led us to a small complex of tents complete with ventilated stand fans. I picked up my blogger press kit and [...]

How a sports physiotherapist helped improve my marathon time!

May 15, 2016

My friends would have heard the Story of My Knee – I had a complete dislocation of my left kneecap back in 2005 (which was not running-related; if anything, it was probably dance related). That old injury has left me with weakened muscles on the left leg since, in addition to periodic [...]

The Dragon’s Back (Dragonback Run 10K 2016)

May 14, 2016

One of the nicest things about running outdoors is to discover new things about familiar run routes depending on the time of day, weather and the direction one takes ‘on the run’. I have had many happy moments upon seeing something new or something pretty while running. However, to mix [...]

January 19, 2016

I attended the Malaysia Women Marathon 2016 press conference at The Arc, Rimbayu, Shah Alam, on January 19th, in my capacity as Chief Cartoonist at Running Toons. I was extremely early – having picked up Running Toons X MWM drawing contest winner Allie and her running partner [...]
