Penang Bridge International Marathon 2025 (PBIM)Half Marathon 21.1km(1:55:53) 🏅One of the most enjoyable races I’ve ever run. Not because it was easy, but because everything finally clicked. Silap sikit je awal sebab tak expect crowd lagi ramai dari last year. Started a bit too far back, km 1 was congested, and the best I could manage was around 6:00/km.Tapi once the road opened up, I settled into my planned pace and stayed patient. Penang bridge ni memang real mental game, tough but fun. Extra laju bila lalu RFID, bak kata Buckson.Fueling strategy was simple. A caffeine gel 30 minutes sebelum race supaya kicked in around km 10, then one gel kat km 7–8 to carry me through till the end.Alhamdulillah, this race gave me my first sub-2 half marathon.Bukan setakat sub-2, tapi 1:55, shaving 18 minutes off my last year PBIM (2:13:09). A result that once felt impossible, now standing right in front of me. 🤲🏻Grateful for the guidance from Coach @faizmatfo @saifulfadhly & @projek59.00 . The training block did its job.Crossing the finish line felt different this time.Sebab buat pertama kali, my family is waiting there witnessing the moment. They are my biggest WHY, the reason I show up, train tired, and keep pushing even when motivation runs low.This race wasn’t about proving fitness.It was about maturity, trusting the process, running smart, and executing under fatigue.And today, everything came together. ✨#penangbridgeinternationalmarathon by @mohdirfanshahrul

Life has been busy & time has been tight, but consistency beat perfection today. Honestly, I'm not in my best shape, but I still showed up with heart.Shaved 3 minutes off my previous PB from july.Slowly but surely. Progress over perfection, always. LIHM wasn’t even in my plan this year, but I’m glad I said yes. The familiar faces, the new friendships, the strong community energy reminded me why I love this sport. Semua orang showed up with the same mission. 🎯Huge respect to the organiser, Abang Shah, @shahrizan.saad , my brother Alif as host, @alifaiman22 and all the teams involved. You raised the bar for Malaysia’s running scene. A true benchmark event with a real community vibe. I'm already can’t wait to come again next year @lihm.official Thank you @projek59.00 and coach @faizmatfo @saifulfadhly for the structured blocks.Thank you Patah Kaki Run Club @patahkakirunning & Q1 Running Club @q1runningclub for the collab with @zush.sport sempena cancer & clean ocean awareness. More to come! 💪🏻And thank you chor chor yang ajak & join @hmmdzarif @azizlhkim @mirulhykal , sometimes the last-minute plans always end up being the best ones. Kecuali part yang kalah main kad tulah haha.On to the next runcation geng. Hidup post-rock! 🤘🏻#LIHM by @mohdirfanshahrul

Kuala Lumpur Full Marathon Debut 42KM (4:20:14)🏅“I finally proved myself wrong.”Yes, it got a little emotional at the finish line; eyes filled with tears because I still couldn’t believe I made it.It’s not just a run.It’s not just 42km.It’s a whole story of discipline, mental strength, and a greater comeback for myself and my legacy.I never thought I could run this far in my whole life.Who would’ve thought? I once cheated on my cross country in high school by pretending to faint, but today… I’m a marathoner.The race itself was a tough one, the route was brutal. AKLEH tested my mental, and DUKE was a nightmare. The heat was no joke; even the elites admitted this year was especially tough.But challenge accepted. I stayed locked in and delivered my plan. My pacing held strong, my fueling strategy worked, and I crossed that finish line with nothing left to prove except to myself.Lastly, thank you to everyone who’s been there since day one and especially to @projek59.00 & coach @faizmatfo @saifulfadhly for the 16-week plan that guided every session leading to this moment.And to my wife, the real MVP behind every success story. Love you @_husnaharis ❤️Because truth be told, I doubted myself even before the starting line. I wasn’t sure I could finish. Then mental game was tough.But that’s exactly why this means so much. Today, I finally proved myself wrong.Ayah, Ibu, Along finally a marathoner. 🤲🏻 by @mohdirfanshahrul

Kota Bharu Half Marathon 2025 🏃‍♂️21.1KM | 2:02:31 (PB) | 5:46/kmPace was on track for sub-2 for the first 15km straight, tapi bonk teruk dekat KM18. The body still wanted to push, but mentally I switched off. By the time I bounced back and regained rhythm at KM19, it was already too late.Still, a solid 11-minute improvement from my last PB (2:13), so I’ll take the win. 🤲🏻Biggest lesson learned/Kito Yak Dulu Lagi (KYDL): never underestimate sleep & recovery. Travelling all night from Penang → KL → Kelantan was a pre race mismanagement by me. 🙏🏻 This KBHM almost didn’t happen btw, hujan lebat dari 2 petang sampai 2 malam, 4000 runners mesti rasa nak sambung tidur je malam tu haha, tapi we move. Running in that cold weather & angin menyucuk, tak sure nak panggil Kota Bharu ke Newcastle. The route was indeed flat, tapi flat all the way pun challenging jugak rupanya haha. Tapi Alhamdulillah, overall it went well. Thanks to everyone who supported, Congrats to all hometeam & thanks @projek59.00 + Coach @faizmatfo @saifulfadhly @atiqah_syafiqah for the speedwork 🫡Progress, not perfection. Sub-2, I’m not done with you yet. 🫵🏻#KBHM2025 @kbhalfmarathon by @mohdirfanshahrul

Same as last year, I treated this 30KM as my birthday run celebration. 🏃‍♂️🎂But this time, it wasn’t just a race, it was also part of my training block for my full marathon debut. I focused on maintaining my FM pace, aiming for sub 3:15, and Alhamdulillah managed to hit sub 3:10, shaving 36 minutes off last year’s 30KM.Life’s journey keeps getting tougher as I get older, but just like this race, I’m ready to take it on and finish with all my heart. 🖤It’s never about being the fastest.It’s about progress, step by step. ✨Thank you to everyone who’s always there with your support. It means the world. 🙏#AYearOlder by @mohdirfanshahrul
