My experience at 3rd Penang 12hours walk

Before I start my experience of my maiden Penang 12hours walk race,I would like to take this oppurtunity to thanks apek Chin,help us to settle entry ,plus be our volunteer during arrival on race eve day.Hentam the famous Penang food.Millions thanks to running friends including Haris far away from Kedah support us until 10pm plus,Ketam Batu and Becholi came after 10pm,CM gave us a surprise motivation after 1.30am,cinya appreciate.And no forget who sms me like CM,Chen and PM1 couple,plus ccube,pm11 Sj and pm19 justin plus Mr Pia Lai in blog and ohters .John call me after race,thanks again !!!

Compare to 24hours Genting hours walk,this Penang 12 hours will look more easy,if u think like that,I am sure it will bring you suffer,cause walking is totally differnt with running.And suffer or not,depend on many part,most important must have proper training for 12hours walk,especially I heard who aim for top position,train very hard to get top 6.Pressure too,if u can't handle ,also will suffer.Even some experience walkers also suffer,cause pia too hard with their target,puncit at early stage or after midnight.

This time got around 450 walkers came to join this race,HK is biggest oversea group,total 15 of them,11 of them is participants.

For me,first 4 hours still fast pace for me,as I cover 6 laps per hour,I know this pace was too fast for me ,sure will hit the wall soon,especially we didn't toke proper dinner,just depend on light food,sure will feel hungry and sleepy after midnight.

I pace with Jamie first few laps,then he cinya walk fast,me relax and patient just follow my pace ,I only can overtoke him at 17th lap.But what gave me worry is not my condition,cause at first 2 hours ,worry the championchip didn't function,cause when me cross the scanning poit,the chip no respone ? No sound leh ? uhuk uhuk.....cinya worry my genting bad dream will repeat here.Lucky finally only less one lap.

Walk with some light food standby in my pouch,I didn't feel hungry and relax enjoy 100 plus,fruit,powerbar,still feel strong,found some HK veteran gals walk as my first 4 hours pacer.

But after 12.00am midnight,I know I need to slow down,if not,I will hit the wall shortly and facing cramp problem,as my split time show as my condition is down,lucky my ranking from 13,jump to 10,then 9,but I feel down after confirm and confirm with Penang friend Lee Kean Ewe,he said he feel sleepy but will pia for top 6 to get trophy,if not no meaning for him,I thought top 10 got trophy as participants more than 100..haha...then,my heart felt down,still try to keep continue on without long rest,only went for toilet spent more time.

I tried to use ice water to wash my face,it gave me some refresh feeling,and use ice massage my leg muscle every lap,really help me a lot,if not,I am sure my leg will jam liao .Then off course joke with the volunteer and praise them,as this few small boy didn't sleep to provide drinks for walkers,appreciate it,and joke with them,me also felt relax mah..hehe !!

But I felt almost KO around 3am,close my eye few times while still keep walking,at this time,I found one HK gal Carol almost same pace with me,but her patient and endurance more good than me,so,if me went for toilet or stop for drinking or eating,will try to keep up my pace ,until I found her,that help me to maintain my results,but both of us didn't chat during race,only after race just said thanks her pacing..hehe !!

I felt very kan koh after 4am,cause still 4 hours to go,and my results already no chance to get in top 6,cause even Harun Tee drop to 10th,but still I try my best to continue without facing cramp,even I felt almost near to cramp,what to do leh ? No proper training,no serious train that make a lot of ppls suffer,including me also..hehe !!

As Aiman and Lee Kean Ewe too fast,I only chat sometime while they overtoke me,but me did chat with Apek Chin also,just to motivate each others.And Jamie suffer leg cramp,so I still use Carol as my pacer.

I tried my best to all out at last two hours,even I knew that me 9 or 10,that is not important,don know next year will come or not,soI really no care both of my heels blister feeling,keep went on,get a lot cheering from pacesetters members too.

The final hour is nice feeling,as I knew my form like for first 4 hours,just walk fast,unlucky me can't toke the oppurtunity to walk one more lap even still got around 8 minutes plus.

Anyway,I was happy cause first time to join this Penang 12hours walk,even I only get sweat at first 4 hours and last 2 hours,didn't get bad or worst on my leg,2 big blister only nia.

I must thanks tie kong(sky) didn't bring rain during our 12 hours overnight walk race.If not,sure I will get more suffer,cause even no change shoe (no wet),both of my heel got two big blister.And lucky only right foot 4th nail pain,but didn't turn to black.

To be continue.....
