It's a homecoming for Ikhwan "Bugatti" (EFR 1) as he went down to Stadium UPM for Mizuno Wave Run 2012 last week.

In this event, he break his own record by 7 mins and 2 second faster, with the chip time of 0:50:50.

We hope to see more than him, or maybe other runners that can beat his record, would be better.

 Still can cover her 'ayu'...wow...
I juz wanna say 'Wow'...
Malakoff KL Run is considered the last big running event in the calendar year 2011. Held at Bukit Kiara Equestrian & Country Resort, on 18th December, this event has two categories, 12km and 7km.
This is where one of our EFR, Iskandar (EFR 8) has been disqualified for not taking the 12km race route (instead, using 7km route). As we sympathised for him on the misunderstanding, the other three of our EFRs had set a new milestone on that day in their first-time 12km running race. They are Andy (EFR 4), F.A.D Suarez (EFR 3) and our third time winner, Kaki Kuda (EFR 1).

Here are the special snapshots of the event day.
