Saturday Morning Walk

I was supposed to do my long easy run today but due to my body is aching - stiff shoulders, headache (migraine), my eyes hurting as if not enough sleep.

So instead of a long run, I've decided just to do hill walk 10 to 15 times - up and down my house's hill. Yeap, it did cure my stiff shoulders, headache and what ever sickness I was having. Usually, when I have this kind of sickness, I would vomit it out, a massage of tiger balm and swallow Panadol active fast and bawa tidur.

So from now on I would just do some light exercise and don't be surpise if in the early hours I would be walking down and up my hill.

Keep on execising...............

Event: Ride of Silence

 

Time & Date: Wednesday, 8:15pm, 20th May 2009 Location: Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium (in-front of the big stairs) Route: Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium - Jalan Kebangsaan — Jalan Salambigar — Jalan Muara — Jalan Tanah Jambu — Muara Tutong Highway — Jalan Berakas and back to the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium. *** No registration fees and please put on your front and back light**** http://www.rideofsilence.org/main.php All cyclists are welcome.

 

It was a very good turn out last night. Around 100 cyclists showed up mostly the regulars. The Ride of Silence was lead out by Pehin Yahya, MIPR Minister who is also a cyclist. If any of you travel the road along Jalan Kebangsaan, Sg Akar / Salambigar bypass in the morning or after work, most probably you will see him cycle to work and back to home.

The ride started around 8:20pm and ended around 9:50pm. The distance covered was around 25km and we were being escorted by the Royal Brunei Police.

 

The Ride of Silence
Tonight we number many but ride as one
In honor of those not with us, friends, mothers, fathers, sisters, sons
With helmets on tight and heads down low,
We ride in silence, cautious and slow
The wheels start spinning in the lead pack
But tonight we ride and no one attacks
The dark sunglasses cover our tears
Remembering those we held so dear
Tonight’s ride is to make others aware
The road is there for all to share
To those not with us or by our side,
May God be your partner on your final ride
- Mugai

The new recreational park

The recreational park is located between Ministry of Health and Ministry of Finance building. I guess the park is not officially open yet but I guess the public can use it already as I have seen joggers using it. Next to it is a colorful building – If I’m not mistaken it is called - Pusat Kesihatan

It is a very safe place, no cars to worry about to knock you down. The only problem is that it is surrounded by thick bushes and jungle. You have to be accompanied by your friends (especially girls).

So far the only facilities that this park provide is a hut, a jogging path good for walkers, joggers, runners and cyclists.

A few open hard dry field are available. If they develop it to make it nicer, then it would be good. Then we can play Ultimate Frisbee, Football, Picnicking and etc.

Go and check it out……………….

29th Panaga triathlon results

The full 29th Panaga Triathlon official results were emailed around 2:44pm. Once again, I'm beaten by Ahmad Fathi. So that 2-0 for Panaga Event. Nevermind, I still have November Panaga Triathlon. This time he beat me at all 3 event except for the transition time, I'm still the fastest (inda mau mau). For the swim and bike, he just beat me by a few seconds. Congrats dude, lain kali aku bayar hutang (mun terbayar jua tu)

To all triathletes, congratulations especially the new comers such as Hj Ali Sofian Hj Thani, Hamsul Sulaiman, Hasreen Ali Hassan, Abu Hussin Abu Sahat and to those that I don't know your name. So next target, full olympic distance.

Friday cycling

Yesterday around 5:30pm, We (Me, Aliuddin and Zaeidi) went again to the Sg Akar area in front of the new RTB. We also brought along Mozart and my brother Hj Untong. Its a 6.5km concrete track around the steel fences. It has a lof of hills, downhill corners, killer hills and much more.

With just one loop, its enough for your thigh to feel the burning sensation and the lactic acid building up. The area is also good for running but make sure you have a good knee.

29th Panaga Triathlon - Pre Race

23 hours to go. This is my 2nd triathlon race this year and my 5th Panaga Triahtlon race. I've not prepared much for this competition since it is overlapping with the Xterra triathlon training. So I guess this is just a pre warm-up for the Xterra.

The format of the competition is the same as last year that is 500m pool swim (16 laps), 24km cycle ride (3 laps) and a 5 km run (2 laps). So guys and gals, please remember IT IS A 3 LAPS BIKE RACE NOT 2 LAPS. THIS IS DUE TO ROAD CLOSURE.

Yesterday, I received an email from the Panaga Triathlon saying that the Panaga pool is closed down until further notice due to technical problem. So, if the pool is still closed on Sunday, the event will be changed from Triathlon to Duathlon (run-bike-run). I guess most of you competitors have also received the same email as I do.

A duathlon. That would be great. At least everyone can be flag off at the same time and the athletes will be more competitive. I guess Ahmad Fathi will be among the fastest in the run and with his superfast Cervelo, most probably he will be in the top 3 or top 5

But for those who have prepared intensively for the triathlon especially the swimming part, i felt sorry for them. They have trained very hard. Swimming every lunch time and after work, makan minum tidur di swimming pool (nasi tambah)..hahahahha.

What ever happen tomorrow, good luck to all of you. Let it be a healthy competitive sport. The spirit of the game. Show it to them that you can swim, bike and run...............

Cycle 2 temburong – the report

 
Sunday 10th May 2009, 8 cyclists (6 MTB and 2 Road Bikes) successfully cycle from Kuala Lurah to Temburong via Limbang without any problems.

 

6 of us (the anakpanyus) cycle from our home base i.e. Sg Akar. We started around 5:40am and reached Kuala Lurah Immigration Checkpoint around 7:12am. A distance of around 35km. 2 Cyclists waited for us over here.

 

Brunei immigration checkpoint – 7:14am

Limbang Immigration Checkpoint – 7:21am

We started our journey to Limbang town around 7:30am a distance of 42km

8:48am – Somewhere along the road to Limbang

9:12am – A few more kilometres to Limbang Town

9:40am – Finally we reached Limbang Town and we had our breakfast. It took us around 2 hours to reach Limbang Town with an average speed of 25km/h.

 

  

 

We continued our journey to Sungai Pendaruan Immigration Checkpoint, Limbang. It is around 16km from Limbang town.

  

Queuing up at the immigration checkpoint – 10:52am

Boarding the ferry at 11:05am and we don’t have to pay.

 

Always protect your face from the sun.

We reached Bangar, Temburong around 11:45am. We had our lunch at the government rest house.

13:16am – Going back to BSB using boat. That light blue shirt guy accidentally unclip my speedometer and guess what, it fell to the water. I’ve just bought it 2 weeks ago. *****

The total distance covered 116.67km in a time of 9hours 25mins according to one of the bicycle speedometer. On average, the speed was around 25km/h since most of us are using MTB with big knobby tires.

Sg Akar to Kuala Lurah – 35km – 1.5hours
Kuala Lurah to Limbang – 42km – 2hours
Limbang to Ferry Temburong – 16km
Ferry Temburong to Bangar – 5km
Bangar to BSB by boat – don’t know
BSB to Sg Akar - 11km

Our next project is Cycling Expedition to Labuan Island and most probably before puasa.
