Running
DMT 70 Redo ( 2025)
Got dazzled this time to join this race despite I am very reluctant to go back, since I was already a survivor once. To speak the truth, I know that it is very hard for me to complete this at 22hrs. Best is really 24 plus, however the cut off time is stringent and not to be messed with.
MR25 Ultramarathon 2024
The final day arrived on 29th Dec 2024, just to be sure of getting in I re did the qualifying on 17th Sep. On 30 Nov, the MR25 organizing team announced the participants for the race. I was lucky to be able to race in the closed category women. There were actually only six of us.
Singapore Marathon 2024 ( SCMS 2024)
1st December 2024, the Singapore marathon is always the much anticipated race for the nation as it marks the year end. Somehow, now the Sundown Marathon is no longer in action, maybe the sign up rate is low and also the transport after race can be a problem.
Ultra Trail Malaysia by UTMB (50KM)
Joining this race with Joey again. Actually, she went to this race in 2023 and came in top ten, which is quite a feat as this race is famous for the muddy and super slippery terrain and also leeches. Before its UTMB name, it was known as Malaysia Mountain Trail Festival. It was really a big mud festival because every year when I see the FB posts from people who participated, it was always very muddy, people sliding and getting injured. That is the reason why everywhere I am not tempted to go for this race, as I am not very good with trail and not sure if I can grapple with the terrain.
Istanbul Marathon 2024 (46th Edition)
Specifically put the 46th edition because I am 46 this year , it was such a coincidence. Sometimes, when I look back at my running adventures, I had been quite lucky in a little sense here and there. I guess one of the more important thing to be is to be able to complete the race safely and soundly.
Was lucky again this time that although I cannot go for an Oceanman, I managed to find another marathon in the same region. Its probably the only intercontinental race that cuts Asia to Europe.
Run for Inclusion 2024
Writing back wards for all the events that happened lately. Well I still have not posted the Swim for Hope, Wizzair Venice Marathon and the Istanbul Marathon.
Planned this with Siew Ling earlier on this year when she was looking for guides to bring her to this eventful run. Usually, I just let the committee assign me the tasks they want me to do. But this time since I have been walking around with Siewling every other month, I thought maybe we should do it.

Race Against cancer PACER 10 KM 60min
This is my second pacing stint, to speak the truth it is not as intense as the Great Eastern women one , maybe because the costume play was taken away from this one. Also for this race, we have male pacers joining in.
Ipoh International Run 2024
Held on 28 July 2024 at the Ipoh Stadium, I decided to join this race mainly because of Joey. Joey, my good friend whom I did the 100Km together with in Jan, has moved back to her hometown Ipoh.
Mantra 116-38K Welirang
Having heard this race for the longest time and really wanted to try it out myself. Usually Indonesian races will not let you down especially the beautiful mountain scenery.
