BHP Orange Run 2016

Nice cool Sunday (28 August 2016) morning for the BHP Orange Run 2016, which starts at The Curve, Mutiara Damansara. Run consist of a 11km run in the Mutiara Damansara and Damansara Perdana neighbourhood.

Picked up my bib 10 minutes before the race started :) The run was around familiar neighbourhood and have ran parts of the route before. Quite a number of elevation according to the route map.

Also, my legs were still aching from 2 days worth of trampoline park jumping with the nieces. But the foam rolling did help relaxes the muscles for the run.

Started of the first 2km with traffic and chit chat with friends. Then picked up the pace and focus on the run. Lots of climbs, which is enough to get your heart rate racing if maintained at the pace but I was determined to go for my personal best.

Finally complete the run with a sub 1-hour at 10km mark at 57:51! The first time I dropped below the 1 hour mark.

Whoopie! Now is time for a new target :)

55mins? 50mins?
