One of der Worst Event in 2007


What : Larian KUL 10k Melawati (KUL)

When : 22nd July 2007
Where : Taman Melawati, Kuala Lumpur
Distance : approx 7km
Medals : Finisher Medals (Cinya Sui!)
Rating : Very Very Poor!

I don't mind of paying RM30 linggit, if der run is organise it very well. But to my surprise, it was der worst run that i couldnt imagine....

1) Der collecting bib area very der cin cai (lousy), really potong stim.

2) Unbelievable! No toilet at all, ask them how can this be? They juz reply say "SORRY!" I oredi kenot tahan my shiet liao!! [insert very der frust here]


3) Actual starting time 7am, but nothing yet to happen [insert pukul lalat here]. Runners juz waiting like "Soh Loh" (stupid).


4) 7.10am only announce der starting time, ask runners to get ready. starting time will be at 7.15am sharp!


5) Starting line very der kelam kabut, organizer didnt give a proper direction.


6) Oredi 7.30am, race still no start. When is about to start, got ppl protest der Afrika runners, so organiser ask all der black runners to stand a side to Kheng Sou (settlement).


7) In d end, 1 afrika male n 1 female are allow to take part. Stupid fool, organizer shldn't have mention earlier in der entry forms if they not allow foreign to take part?


8) So sad for der Afrika runners, they hv to step a side to see other run. [insert CCB TNS to der organizer here] Bcoz of 1 runner protest, others hv to suffer. No sportmanship at all!!


9) Distance from 10km downgrade to 7km, but der medal label stated 10km.


10) Nothing to shout about this event, der only thing I like is der medal nia. That All!!

RM30 for a 7k race, cinya expensive lor. tats mean u r paying almost RM4.30 per KM plus der medal.

Compare it will Seremban 1/2, RM10 for 21k plus a nice Selangor pewter medal. Per KM we are paying RM2.10, cinya worth it.

Hi Der_Pacemakers,

I was in this race last sunday and also dissapointed from the organizer how they organize the event is very very poor. I thought there is a turning point at masjid but to my surprise its already the finish line. I saw many dissapointed ppl too.

It is New Balance and I assume it is a well organized race the fact that the name NB is a reputable brand in this kind of event. hope they will learn a lesson from it ...
