Baggage collect was very speedy! I like!

4.45am Up! 6am Start! 21km later... 8am+ here we are!

before collasping for a much need rest back at the Hotel

We headed to Berjaya Timesquare for the rest of the night

Eat eat! or suffer tomorrow!

dinner was at where else, our favourite eating spot Jalan Alor!

but at least it's not as crazy as that in indonesia

here we get human and vehicular traffic...

with traffic clogging up the behind them!

there was some wedding ceremony performance on the street

for more Shopping!

Final shot before leaving Merdaka Square for the day

A route to accomplish

A race to conquer tomorrow

Our after-rqace meeting area, which will most probably be swarmed with people tomorrow

note to self- never take stand with sun behind you!

All finally got back far enough for a full picture!

More pre-race setups photos

You decide which's better!

I can't decide which image to upload so I put both up!

more paddang goodness for ya grass fans, say it pad-dddang!

The grand stage

The flagpole is a good distant marker for runners

The milo booths and lottsa dustbins

It feels just like the Singapore Padang!

and so are the barricades!

But the start line is not up yet!

12 hours to race time and it's scorching hot!

And here we are at Merdaka Square!

I spy with my little eye, pre-race Recce

Navigating KL streets is quite easy

Event booths around the sports hall

And it will bring you direct to the booth, even if you are in idiot!

Like this one!

Follow the signs...

Why? cus as the sign says so!

After countless Wismas, we finally came to letter O of "OCM" to collect out Race Packs!

And here we are in KL and Timsum Lunch!

And Lots of on ride entertainment... Zzzz...

In Golden Mile Konsortium Branch

In here we have leather seats which make funny noises when you press that buttons which says "massage"

It's Singaporean Registered & looking spanky!
