In the final kilometre, I told myself,
“Okay, this is it…please don’t mess it up now!”
After 9 marathons chasing a sub 4.
A time that starts with the magic number 3 just for that one breakthrough. I’m finally about to claim the one that matters most.
It was me against myself.
This is it. This is my moment.
And then I screamed like a lunatic. 🤣

The first 10km was still okay… then the heat and humidity started to hit. 🥵 Feeling nauseous, I even threw up a little.. @sitiaishah.kiki witnessed the whole thing.

So I took off my cap and started splashing cold water all over myself, trying to cool down and survive the heat.

By 30km, it was basically just about trying to keep going.

Then at 41km, you can see @k1runs looking very happy while giving me some words of wisdom. 🤣

And finally, crossing the finish line with no expression.
So nice to have the full race video. This is really another level! Thank you @asicsmalaysia and @klscmarathon for capturing these memories. 🙌🏻 by @pushlukepush

Thank you to all the volunteers, runners, friends and spectators for cheering on all the participants. You guys rock and really lifted my mood! 🙌

I can see myself shaking my head while looking at the timing 🤣 just before crossing the finish line. Another reason to train harder for KLSCM 2027 and battle for the slots again!

Thank you to everyone who recorded and shared their clips with me:

“For marathon people always want to do sub4 and that’s the benchmark - Jubaque”

Sangat setuju dengan kata-kata @jubaque 🙌🏻

Hampir setahun saya buat perancangan dan latihan dengan harapan dapat buat sub4 lagi di Klscm, malah nak cuba buru masa yang lebih baik. Remuk hati bila otot belakang tertarik ketika cuba mengelak runner yang tiba-tiba berhenti mengejut di depan. Situasi yang di luar kawalan, dan saya reda dengan ujian ini.

Sebelum kejadian, saya berada di depan pacer 3:45. Berlinang air mata bila terpaksa berhenti di bahu jalan sambil melihat belon 3:45 dan 4:00 berlalu dan semakin mengecil dari pandangan. Target terus lebur, dan saya tak mampu buat apa-apa.

Nak teruskan menolak dan cuba kejar, tapi pergerakan dah terbantut. Bila menolak, rasa macam urat pinggang asyik tersentak. Masih berbaki 18km untuk tamatkan race ini… nak teruskan atau DNF? Akhirnya pilih untuk teruskan…

Setiap kilometer terasa begitu perit dan lama, ditambah pula masih banyak pendakian sebelum sampai ke finish line. Terima kasih kepada mereka yang berhenti dan membantu menolak saya ketika saya struggle.

Bila target dah hilang, banyak soalan mula bermain di fikiran sepanjang perjalanan ke finish line. Salah satunya, berapa banyak lagi peluang untuk saya cuba sub4 sebelum usia semakin meningkat dan badan mula ada limitnya?

Akan tiba masanya nanti, target tu dah tak lagi penting. Tapi buat masa sekarang, saya ambil pengajaran, recover, dan akan cuba lagi tahun depan. by @pushlukepush

Pulled my back at KM24 and honestly, I really thought I couldn’t continue. The nerve kept pulling and I was already thinking about calling it a DNF.

Thank you @ironben_my for encouraging me not to give up and for pushing me up the hill. 🙏 Thank you @raysonchot for applying Counterpain on my back 🔥it burned like crazy, but somehow helped numb the pain.

The remaining distance was pure torture, especially with the haze. Not the result I was aiming for, but it’s okay. by @pushlukepush

Smooth bib collection! Always collect your bib on the first day if possible, so you have more time to rest before race day. I’m positive that KLSCM 2026 won’t be cancelled. All the best to all participants! by @pushlukepush

The younger me would probably have looked for shelter from the rain. Plans may change, but we just have to make the best of the situation. Looking at today’s higher AQI reading, maybe completing my training yesterday wasn’t such a bad thing after all. Hopefully the air gets better before race day.. Time to taper. by @pushlukepush
