Mt Butler 15 Km Race 2010 - 2010/3/21




Completed the Mt Butler 15 Km Race 2010 ( 第34屆香港 畢拉山 15公里 古蹟越野賽 ) in a slow time of 1 hr 31 mins. Despite the completion time was slow, I felt pretty satisfied with the result already.

However the best part was after the race. I suddenly found out my arm pocket disappeared. I then quickly had a fast pace return trip to look for it. After 2.5 Km return trip, I realized I probably did not wear my arm pocket from the beginning.

Fearing the organizer would have disbanded, I had to rushed another 2.5 Km back to the baggage storage area. I found my arm pocket was kept in my bag safely.

This 5 Km rush really "killed" me^.^ Unfortunately there was no "most absent minded runner". Otherwise I would have no competitors at all^.^

AVOHK Reservoir Cup Race I 09 - 09/10/18


Having completed the 12 K AVOHK Reservoir Cup Race I 09 ( 香港 元老會 水塘盃系列賽 )at the Aberdeen Reservoir in a moderate time of 1 hr 7 mins.

Despite it's a slow time, it was already 4 mins+ faster than my completion time in the same race last year.

I could not believe I was running ahead of Amy (snake jr) before she overtook me at 10 K.
I managed to stay close to her until she reduced to walk and asked me to take over her. I lost my pace soon after loosing a stable target to chase.


Amy overtook me 500 m before the finishing line. Despite Amy's encouragement, I was too tire to speed up.

I managed to prevent an expatriate runner from overtaken me in the last several ten metres though. ^.^
