Seremban Half Marathon 2015

It was a last minute plan, this are few stuff that i did for the love of it (running) and did not think much..haha. Few days back, i knew that one of AC running friends; abang Omar is not going for SHM2015 because he have to work on that day but his wife, Kak Leen is going with Andrew and Timo. So i decided to take his bib and run under his name. The cost for my hotel is rm120 not counting the trip to Seremban but the experience is good. To conclude, I won't join SHM again because its remind me of Bidor Half Marathon even though the hills are challenging. First time ever i saw a bunch of people selling mineral water for rm1.50 along the roadside (even parked a lorry) during a marathon. Imagine that happen at Boston Marathon! Viral in facebook, there is a post saying that the organizers serve pipe water(orange cordial) yet seems they did not reply to the accusation.  Whatever it is, its a shame because not all runners get the medal, including yours truely. Saw this uncle cursing & demand to meet the person in charge (organizers). He got a point tho, especially the veterans that ran & hoping to get a medal least to brag or show to their grandkids..not just a piece of cert. I know the frustration feeling because I went back without a medal yet I am fine with it. The route was under milage (9km) and I finish it at 1:00. Thanks for the experience Seremban..I won't be back (terminator style)~Cheers mate
