New York City Virtual Run 2023

A virtual run is not always the easiest. Moreso done on a full marathon distance of 42km. But this virtual run was great fun and with the support of buddies to run with. 

The New York City Virtual Run (Guaranteed Entry) was a lucky get for me. At the stroke of midnight, logged in and registered. Both Jeremy (my run buddy) and I got the draw to register and so we did. Some paid USD later, entry accepted and here we are to complete this run on 29 October 2023. The run needs to be completed within the same day but no time limit. 

This is my 2nd marathon within a span of a month and this actually turned out much better than the recent KL Standard Chartered Marathon (KLSCM - Painful Run). With this completed, both Jeremy and I got a guaranteed (non-complimentary) entry to the TCS New York City Marathon in 2024! This upcoming run will mark our 2nd Abbott World Marathon Major (1st was Tokyo Marathon for both of us, 2017 and 2023 respectively). 

Catch us in the video of our run!


See the route we took on Strava  Essentially from Saujana to Ara Damansara to Tropicana to Kota Damansara and back, then 2 loops of Ara Damansara and completed the run by repeating the loops in Saujana.

See you soon NYC!
