Genting Trailblazer 2010

Genting Trailblazer 2010

This being my 2nd year...and predicting many more years to come. This tells u how crazy a person i am :) HAHA
This is my view point of life:
"There are two mistakes one can make along the road of life…not going all the way and not starting."
and that will not be me. Not for TB at least! I've been there, conquer it and gave my best all the way! of course thanks to my partner Julian for he was equally crazy! Have YOU?

OUR RESULT (unofficial)
1 hour 50 min - at 12th position (mixed team)

MY PARTNER
Julian is an avid runner and an RPM/gym freak!... How did we came about partnering each other?
It was last year that i got to kno about TB. The moment i read about it i was totally for it...but the event required a partner. So i was screaming out loud for a partner... Julian heard me but somehow 'chicken' out last year! LOL
But this year 2010, he was the one who reminded me of the TB! and the one who motivated me throughout the race...it was a tough trail no doubting about it... So motivating each other was really essential

some tips in choosing your partner
Your partner for TB is very important. Preferably someone wif equal or almost equal fitness level. Your partner and you will have to start and finish the race course together. Either one missing will be disqualified. Therefore your partner and you must somewhat have a team spirit and team work. This race is not all about oneself...This year’s race promotes the theme of 'team spirit'.

So what is GENTING TRAILBLAZER all about?
Muddy, slippery jungle trails and challenging obstacles course. That's what to expect at the annual Awana GentingTrailblazer. It is a 14km course where participants will have to wake through the challenging jungle course, working together with their team mate to tackle the obstacles. It's all about getting down and dirty, wrestling with what Mother Nature has to offer in one of the oldest rainforest in Malaysia. And you're doing this 6000 feet above sea level. Definitely a challenge itself.


THE FUN...before the PAIN
We went up genting on a Saturday 30 Oct 2010 Julian, myself, Leon and our VIP photographer Prasad.

The weather up at Genting was marvelous...de mists de cool breeze... wow superb! Myself and Julian we were walking in Genting wifout our sweatshirt!!! Julian because he lost his jacket on the way up to Genting (poor thing...) and i... well i am crzy ma LOL

We checked in the Highlands hotel in genting...the most expensive hotel in Genting (got free stay thanks to Julian's aunty casino points : )
 
Our 1st stop was Starbucks!!! We were pretty hungry by den... Leon's wife Yann stocked up a lot a lot of pastries for us on the way up...so we had a lot of carb loading wif a hot mug of chocolate.

We were still hungry then... haha. I blame it on the cold weather!!!



















Our next stop was Wantan mee...it was pricey but it was lovely! Pork sui goa ( is dat how u spell...oh wateva)
Then Leon wanted to bring us to this place for Yau Char Kui... but sold out!! according to him is the best he has eva tasted!!! I doubt... coz the shop looks like a pizza shop :S dunno!
