Brooks Half Marathon 2014

Image
Yup, that's right folks... as for one of my 2014 resolution, it would be stopping myself into partaking any more running events. Over the period of 365 days in 2013, I've ran about 15 events, that's like more than a run events per month. However due to my absence in the running scene for a month quite recently, well bad habit don't die down eh? well I've enrolled once again for another half marathon organized by Brooks Malaysia. http://event.themarathonshop.com.my/brooks_half_marathon_2014-list.aspx The event will be held at Bukit Jalil, the same place where the event took placed this year as well... speaking of Brooks 2013 event, it was poorly organized with a puny trophy cup instead of a proper medal. Overcrowded runner in small path ways, bad P.A system, insufficient water stations, lazy design of finisher-t , and etc... which kinda tarnish Brooks name, but they did jump the gun and blame it on the organizing team instead. 2013 swag Brooks...

After many many moons of not updating my blog, I've came to a conclusion at the brink of closing it down, or leaving it to rot... but turn of events, I should start picking it up back where I've left off. Now, now let's not get so mushy mushy and personal. It's a blog for what I feel like sharing the stuff I take interest on and what I feel for the sake of sharing it... wait did I said it twice? oh well as long its not too personal...Who know's things might get ugly, very ugly.. Quite recently I've been doing 1/4, 1/2 marathons, yea yea I know, skinny boy is doing more skinny things.... but hey do you know I haz the beer belly!! even on my mis-adventures of running, that stubborn fat really keeps on hugging to my dearest ABS. Moving along, Been watching lot's of movies recently but just plain lazy on review most of em. (just caught Frozen, Police Story 2013 and Secret Life of Walter Mitty) might as well  blog about that in the weeks to come. ...

Police Story 2013: Oh Jackie

Image
Manage to grab this screening to watch my man, Mr. Jackie Chan. Well, well firstly he did mention of retiring from action movies since his last movie, Chinese Zodiac 2013. However you know, we still love this 59 action kicking Chinese actor. Do note this is a spin-off from the other police story movies where it tells a story of a police dad seeking her daughter in a town in China for reconciliation after a fiasco during his wife death at a hospital. The scene start with a dramatic preview of the ending where Jackie is pulling a trigger of a gun to his head. Shocker right? spoiler at the beginning of the show. Well you be the judge after watching it to clearly understand why he did it so. Another shocker was , Jackie has a new hair cut! Probably to fit in as a China policemen criteria. Surprisingly, the action in this movie has been considered milder compare to the previous installment of the franchise. However there is more of a darker feel towards the whole movie ...

Boston Marathon 2013 Explosion

Image
Just a heads up to all runners, families and friends please pray for the unfortunate as 2 explosion has occurred which was believed to be bombings. This is a sad day and for the Boston Marathon Event. My deepest condolence to the life being lost, and deepest sympathy for those that are injured. so far 23 injured 2 deaths. IMHO: i think this might be all planned for a greater master plan which might divert the attention of all police and authorities in Boston. some news source:- http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/apr/15/boston-marathon-explosion-live http://livewire.wcvb.com/Event/117th_Running_of_Boston_Marathon

Mini-Skirts Could Become Illegal in South Korea

Image
In the 1970s, the dictatorship controlling South Korea stipulated the length of women's skirts. Now, due to a new law, some in South Korea worry that those days are returning. Last year, a law was passed in South Korea regarding, among other things, indecent exposure. Today, it goes into effect. According to website  Korea Bang , the law states, "Those who show their bare skin excessively in a public place or expose parts of the body that should remain covered, thus making others feel embarrassment or discomfort, are guilty of indecent exposure." The Korean newspaper  Hankyoreh  is arguing that this new law, passed under the previous president's administration, will enable authorities to go back to the strict social codes of the past. During the 1970s, for example, the length of men's hair was also regulated by the government. Those with long hair were sometimes given forced haircuts on the street! This year, South Korea elected its first female presid...

Adidas ENERGY BOOST 27 feb 2013 debut!!

Image
Making its debut today, I was so anxious after my work and rush to pick up my partner in crime to dash to the nearest Adidas boutique. Low behold adidas boost !!! :D As for the design its very light, and looks like styrofoam. However, with closer inspection you can feel its pretty decent build up of 1000 energy TPE capsule bond together just like a regular EVA on most of current market running shoes. My partner had a pair to try on, and the experience was an unexplained feeling however it snuggle pretty nicely on her feet. Thanks to the tech-fit technology and seamless design, this shoe can be worn without socks and as proclaimed should not be a blister maker. Ka-ching, it goes for MYR 550, and my partner faster faster grabbed it :O I've manage to snuggle one, however it wasn't my size and it was a pretty tight snuggle on my US size 11 feet. Sadly furthermore, all the shoe of my correct size has been pre-boo...
