Garfield Run - 26 December 2015

• 26 December 2015, 
• Plaza Tugu Negara, KL
• Flagged off at 4.45 pm for 5 km and 6pm for 3 km
• My Category - 5km Fun Run                       
• Price - RM90.00 for early bird
• Race Pack - Yellow Garfield T-Shirt, registration wrist tag, Garfield plush pillow, all in a yellow drawstring bag
• Goodies - A Garfield medal upon finishing the run   

For this run, I decided to join my brother’s team (Wandee, Kim, Simon Yip, Grace Naramol and Kim’s friend Margaret).

I also met some of my team members from the Pole Ninjas, (Rinnie and Cindy). The weather forecast for 26 December 2015 was sunny and it was indeed a horrible run with the scorching sun that was enough to give me a bad headache throughout the run!

We were flagged off at 4.45pm sharp with the Garfield and Odie mascots cheering the runners on stage. Many of the runners decided to stop for a while to take pictures with them, which caused a human traffic jam. At first, I thought we were supposed to run towards Padang Merbuk and go around Bank Negara. The organiser decided to change the route and we were asked to run on hilly roads heading towards Aswara and the buildings around there. 

Some people fainted along the run as it was really hot. There were 2 water stations and the organiser served Revive isotonic drinks. There were also portable toilets prepared for the run.

When we arrived at the finishing point, we were given our Garfield medal and a bottle of Revive.   

There were carnivals but it didn't look fun or interesting to me.

As for the price that we paid for this run, I must say it was worth it for that heavy Garfield medal, T-shirt, drawstring bag and isotonic drinks, and the organiser had done a good job.
