Report: 23rd Seremban Half Marathon

日期：11st July 2010（星期日）

前言：
7月真的是比赛的旺季，平均每个星期都有至少一个赛事。而我也忍下心肠地限制自己，只参加23rd Seremban Half Marathon和Shape & Men’s Health Night Run ’10两个比赛。我打算把重心放在后者的比赛中。因为这赛事有限量版的奖牌，只有前75名有得拿，感觉比较有挑战。

比赛前：
比赛前一晚我和朋友在波德申游玩，一直玩到凌晨两点多。心想我四点多便要向芙蓉出发，睡两个钟头不如别睡，所以我就选择观看世界杯季军争夺战，德国对乌拉圭。这真是一场精彩的比赛，全场双方进球不断。四点多看完球赛后，我就向芙蓉出发，和坏男孩，卧虎藏龙，Malcalm，chaucky，Shirley，831126及William会合。

比赛中：
比赛在6:45am不知不觉地开始了。前面几公里我都跟着chaucky跑。一路上都有很多斜坡，而且都没有距离标志。如果没有chaucky的GPS手表，我根本都不知道自己跑了多少公里。

4km - 20min

我和chaucky一直保持着每公里5分钟的速度来跑。一段时间后，我的心魔就叫我别跟chaucky了，跑轻松点吧，反正我今天的状态也不是很好。也不知道几公里后，我就放慢下来自己轻松跑了。

时间过了55分钟，应该有半程了，可我还是看不见任何的距离标志。这种不知道自己跑了几公里的情况确实让我缺少前进的动力。我就这样豪无目标地跑了1时48分12秒，感觉到路程好像不足21km。

比赛后：
比赛后遇见Ylong Lui，得知他获得Men Senior 10km第六名，在此恭喜他。

过后我就和大伙儿去吃我期待已久的咖喱面粉糕，怎知那家茶餐室星期日尽然没有开，害我空期待一场。还好之后去May介绍的奇美买的烧包吃起来味道不错，终算有点收获。

Report: Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2010

日期：27th June 2010（星期日）
时间：5:00am
地点：Dataran Merdeka, Kuala Lumpur
距离：42.195km

报名前：
以四小时内完成全程马拉松（Sub4）为目标的我，chaucky和michael_wilson自2月头的Putrajaya Night Marathon后就决定选一个早上的全马赛事来奋力一搏。毕竟早上的赛事比傍晚的赛事好跑多了，此赛事很自然地成为了我们实现目标的舞台。

备战期：
这个比赛是在4月尾的Bidor Half Marathon后开始备战，前后有两个月的时间。5月尾的adidas Sundown Marathon也是我备战的其中一部分。我万万想不到我成功提早在此备战的赛事中达成了我的目标，这也使到我报名参加此赛事的理由变得毫无意义，开始萌生弃赛的念头。还好最后我还是选择留下，也要求自己做多一次Sub4。

04/26 - 05/02，74km
05/03 - 05/09，56km
05/10 - 05/16，69km
05/17 - 05/23，82km
05/24 - 05/30，95km
05/31 - 06/06，27km
06/07 - 06/13，102km
06/14 - 06/20，103km
06/21 - 06/26，22km

训练方法：
如果我说这两个月的备战期我从来都没有练过任何25km以上的Long Slow Distance（LSD），有人会相信吗？对，这是真的。我的训练方法是每天都跑，注重周里数，尽量把每周要跑的总里数平均分配在每一天的训练中。比如说我这个星期要跑80km，星期一至六我都会跑10km，星期日就来个20km。脚累时就跑慢，脚不累时就跑快。这个注重周里数的训练方法是由nayiq介绍的佐治男孩和chaucky的提点下联想出来的，我个人是觉得很有效。

佐治男孩：
Running to the Top並不像其它的書，書上沒有仔細和詳盡的訓練計劃，但有著很多很有用的理論。影響歐美以及全世界的理論，包括中長跑最重要的是練Aerobic Fitness。Aerobic Fitness跟raw speed不一樣，每個人天生的raw speed（短跑速度），可以說是不大能改變的，因爲運動時不能把身體裏的Fast-Twitch肌肉變多，只能練得強壯一點，所以練習只能對短速有錦上添花的作用。

但是Aerobic Fitness就不一樣，練習是可以一直增多Aerobic Fitness，雖然這不會是無限的增長，但除了最頂尖的跑手以外，大部分業餘跑手都可以在練習Aerobic跑中得到不斷的進步。這是一個很重要的理論，因爲800米以上的比賽都是以Aerobic System爲主，即是說，我們只要適當的練習Aerobic Fitness，中長跑就會不斷的進步。而練Aerobic System最好的方法，就是用一個不是太快的速度，跑很多，以增加每週里數。最大的結論就是，無論你是跑五千也好，跑全馬也好，你都需要跑練全馬的里數，分別只是練五千的可能會有多一點點的速度訓練而已。

暂时我也只能上到每周100km，与Mark Williams（Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2010 Sub3 Pacer）的每周150km及佐治男孩的每周160km还有一段距离。

比赛：
比赛还没开始，天就下起大雨来了，前面几km都在“雨中漫步”。

5km - 27分07秒
10km - 53分40秒
15km - 1时19分46秒

路线图上说明香蕉是在16km处，实际上在14km处就派了，还好我有拿到。

20km - 1时45分04秒
21km - 1时50分22秒
25km - 2时10分39秒
30km - 2时37分04秒 - PB!

在30km处吃了Power Gel后没有特别起劲。

32km - 2时48分06秒
35km - 3时05分29秒
40km - 3时33分54秒
42.195km - 3时46分39秒 - PB!

这次没有特别在最后10km逼自己跑快。第一次全程都没有抽筋迹象。

前言：
首先要谢谢iamwen和Soh Pheng给了我一个机会来参加这个赛事。这也是michael_wilson的道别赛事。跑完这个比赛后，他就要到关丹工作了。身为他的pacer，我那里能不给他一个“完美”的道别比拼？

比赛前一天：
上次Energizer Night Race 2010的额外奖金终于在前几天收到了。我，michael_wilson和chaucky之前已经说好要把这RM150 adidas cash voucher用来买一条紧身裤，希望我们能一起在四小时内完成即将来临的Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2010。二话不说，我们在比赛前一晚就相约到KLCC去买了这条紧身裤。

比赛前：
一大清早我就起身载了chaucky和Shirley到Bukit Aman去和大伙儿会合，过后就跟车到Setia Alam。

比赛日新的紧身裤马上就派上用场。这条adidas紧身裤比我之前买的那条Nike紧身裤还好穿。

在比赛前，黑暗的天空已经布满了红色闪电。我心想，今天不会这样“好运”要“雨中漫步”吧？也没多理会，热热身，6:30am，比赛就开跑了。

比赛中：
平时我都是在跟michael_wilson的速度来跑，今天我就想试下用自己的速度来跑。一开始没多久，我就开始“开快车”了。chaucky见状不对就没有跟上来了。刚开始，我是打算0-10km快，11-16km休息，17-21km做最后冲刺的。不过，michael_wilson从后面的压逼感使到我跑成0-10km快，11-16km最后冲刺，17-21km休息。

10km - 40分08.19秒

一路上我都一直逼自己跑快，也现学现卖尝试了nayiq教的切线跑法一段路。中途有5分钟下大雨，使我变得更“狼狈”。一直到最后的水站16km处michael_wilson就越过我，开“Ferrari”飞走了。

16km - 1时12分

还有5km以休息的速度来跑应该能在1时42分回到去终点。当时我真的很累了，所以我就把目标放在1时45分完赛。

18km - 1时23分

最后3km看了时间后又有了想拼的念头。我就放手一搏做最后冲刺，希望能在1时40分内完成。

21km - 1时40分31秒 - PB!

比赛后：
到达终点后遇见michael_wilson才知道他以1时38分完赛，排名14，差两名就有奖杯拿了，有点可惜。chaucky则以1时45分完赛，排名25。

后来打听下才知道Cari Runners竟然有三位女将得奖，真是可喜可贺，在此恭喜她们。

前言：
这是我第一次出国参加马拉松大赛，同时这也是我人生中的第三个全程马拉松（Full Marathon 42km）。在比赛日的两个月前刚好是我的休战期，这使到我的备战期只有一个月。再加上这是个外国的比赛，比赛状态可能没那么佳。所以我就决定把此比赛当成我下个月Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2010全程马拉松的练习，带着游山玩水的心情出发了。

比赛前：
下午4点左右，我就到Changi Exhibition Centre拿race pack。那时刚好遇见Ethan，谈话中才发现这比赛原来有Team Relay的，他们去年获得Mixed Team Relay第二名。我心想，今年的第一名应该是他们的了。

下午9点左右，我，vin_ann，Wind Fong和nayiq竟然在巴士上巧遇。在等巴士时，我听到一些新加坡人说去年的Sundown Marathon是在Changi Village举行，今年才换去Changi Exhibition Centre的。chaucky也有对我说过去年的Sundown Marathon后半段有很多斜坡，希望今年的不会啦。到达起跑点后热热身就和大伙儿一起开跑。

比赛中：
比赛一开始，我就尝试用自己觉得轻松的速度来跑。跑不多远就遇见nayiq，他以每公里5分钟18秒的速度在跑。我就放慢下来跟着他，以免前面太快，后面爆胎。这个速度比我在Putrajaya Night Marathon 2010跟着michael_wilson时还快。
5km - 26:42.46
10km - 53:33.41
15km - 1'19:42
我一直跟到18km，开始觉得不轻松，就放慢下来自己跑了。
20km - 1'46:30
21km - 1'52 - PB!
可能是前面跑太快了，从20-30km的这段路跑得最辛苦。大部分的时间我都拿来休息以准备30km后的最后冲刺。
26km - 2'21:57
30km - 2'46:39 - PB!
32km - 2'58
在31km附近我吃了香蕉后突然很起劲，加上32km处还保持在3小时内。最后的10km我告诉自己，我拚了命也要在1小时内完成。
35km - 3'15:43
40km - 3'43:52
42km - 3'56:19 - PB!
这最后的10km是我第一次这么有劲。我一直告诉自己别拿4'0x来当借口，I'm Possible，今晚我一定要在4小时内完成。最后200m看时间在3'55，我就冲着回去终点。我都不敢相信自己最后还有能力做冲刺。全程只在25km处有点抽筋迹象，25km后我就保持每个水站都喝两杯水，之前则保持每个水站都喝一杯水。

比赛后：
赛后我分析了一下，认为路线，水站和香蕉都对我起了很大的帮助。

1. 今年Sundown Marathon的路线简直和“飞机场”没有分别，长而直，平平无奇，完全没有斜坡。


2. 新加坡的比赛果然和马来西亚的比赛不一样，水站都有充足的水。


3. 我真怀疑我吃的那条香蕉被放了“禁药”，我吃了之后最后的10km都很起劲。

现在我也终于明白为什么新加坡的比赛会有这么多参赛者了。

5th Malaysia International Ekiden Run

日期：16th May 2010（星期日）
时间：8:00am
地点：Palace of Justice, Putrajaya
距离：5 x 3km
号码：004C（Mixed Team）
成绩：1'02:07（组别），12:02.68（个人）
名次：10th

报名前：
自上一次的接力赛取得不错的成绩后，我，chaucky，Chen Kwok和michael_wilson四人原本打算按原班人马加一位女将来组一队Mixed Team的。由于Chen Kwok的新工作上班时间不定时，所以我们就选择了Ylong Lui和annieyee90这对外援，凑成五人来参加这次的接力赛。

Cari Runners好像突然兴起一股接力赛热潮，总动员四队Mixed Team人马来挑战这次的接力赛。最高兴就是看见“处女队”的参与，真是可喜可贺。

比赛前：
由于报名时，我们填写annieyee90跑第三棒，后来又改变主意想把她换去第二棒。可是我又太迟发现比赛条例说明，换棒次或换人需要提早通知主办当局。还好最后发现主办当局并没有特别检查棒次，我就偷偷地和annieyee90交换，变成我跑第三棒了。

当巴士载第三棒的我，大炮伦，scchan27，storm914和licici到达等候区后，我们就慌慌张张地热身去。Jassy则当起我们第三棒的摄影师，真是谢谢她。

比赛中：
8:30am左右开始有人交棒了。也没有算过了几位男将，突然不远处看见蓝衣的annieyee90来了。不错，第一位女将抵达。

接棒后，我就以中速起跑。还记得City Day Relay 2010时也是跑3km，那时前面冲太快，1.5km后就没力了。吸取了上次的教训，这次的3km我就打算前面1km以中速当热身，后面2km才来冲刺。全程跑得都算不错，一直保持着冲刺状态，共越过Mixed Team的5位男将及1位女将。只是最后100m处那段上桥斜坡慢了点，上完桥后就咬紧牙根做最后50m冲刺。要交棒给Ylong Lui时被Men Open的1位男将越过。时间：12:02.68，还算满意。

比赛后：
跑完后休息了一下就和第三棒的Cari Runners一起慢跑回终点，才跑了1km左右就到了。回来后才发现第五棒的michael_wilson已经到了，就过去向他打听下时间。总时间：1'02:07，排名第10。过后我们拍了几张合照后就回了。

Create New Route via Upload GPX in dailymile

I always found the route that I need to map for a running event in MapMyRun.com, but not in dailymile. Usually I will need to follow the route in MapMyRun.com to create the same route by mapping manually in dailymile. Recently I saw dailymile had added on this nice feature of creating new route via upload GPX file. By using GPX file, it is way easier to do an import & export route within MapMyRun.com and dailymile.

For example:

Get a route from MapMyRun.com, save to GPX as a file.

Upload GPX in dailymile with the file that had just saved.

Upload successfully within a minute.

I like this new feature so much. ^.^
