  • 23 October 2016
  • Pullman Putrajaya Lakeside Hotel, Putrajaya  
  • Flagged off at:-
7.00a.m. for 10km

  • Price – RM48.64 (inclusive of transaction fee of RM3.64)
  • Race Pack – A paper bag and registration bib

We were asked to go to the starting line and there was a simple warm-up (body combat) for us.

Our warm-up session
The organiser flagged the 10 km runners off late, at 7.10am.

Super crowded to start with
It was super-crowded and difficult to run at first. We were running on the roads and highways. 

The best thing about running on the highway, was (what I believe was) the motorcycle lane that the runners used. In a way, it was pretty safe.

There were no hills and it was a nice run with beautiful scenery, i.e. government buildings of Putrajaya, race course, Pullman lakeside and greeneries. If you need the toilet, too bad, as portable toilets were not prepared by the organisers. There were 3 water stations, the 1st water station at 3km,  2nd water station at 6km and the last one at 9km; only the last station served both 100+ isotonic drink and mineral water. The 1st and 2nd water stations, only served mineral water.

Had to stop for a while to take photo
Upon arrival, we were given our medal and were given a bun. There were lucky draws and breast examinations.  


We hung around for a while and then queue up to get our cold Milo drinks. It was super refreshing!

Got mine, cold and refreshing. The way they make it is super yummylicious that you can't get it anywhere else
