Ipoh International Run 2009


This year, I took part in Ipoh International Run ( category : L ( 5km) ) I woke up on 4 a.m. today to get myself ready for the run. Within minutes` time, it started to rain heavily. My friends started to sms me by the time it rained.I asked them to go to the stadium to see how it went on.

When I`m equiped, my dad drove me to the stadium. It was about 5.30 a.m. to 6 a.m. Many people stayed in their cars to wait for the rain to stop. Unfortunately, the rain didn`t stop but it kept on dropping and everyone was wet.Some fellows were running around the stadium to keep their body warm. I entered the stadium and registered. A woman wore me a bracelet. Hmmm, it`s more like a plastic band.

We stood in the rain for hours. I kept glancing at the phone. Ng Wei Hui said that she was not coming for the run. She said that she`s tired.Another fella, Wong Ke Rong. I sms her twice and she didn`t give me a single reply. I was getting worried.I missed call her and finally she replied me.She told me that she was not going. I gave a shelter to a guy and three girls which were the fifth formers .I didn`t know them but I just gave them a shelter.

Those who know my dad will know that he is good in chatting. He started to boast and saying some jokes to them. I just looked at them, not with astonishment but just staring. Finally, the sky turned bright. Hours of time flew. The run was on. I told my dad that I was going to give up participating the run. I was suffering from menses pain.

Just as I expected, the traffic was jam. We were stuck on the road, waiting the participants to cross the road but there were too many people participating, about thousands of them. Just imagine it.Finally we got rid of traffic jam.We were on the way to home. My dad asked me whether I want to have a breakfast before we go back to our home or not but I declined his offer. I was exhausted and all I knew is that I had to get back.

 I hoped that I can participate once more on the next year.
