Distance: 6KM Trail + 3KM Obstacles

Here we go again, as EFR7 and EFR25 love to run in Singapore, they signed up for Energizer Night trail run which was held on the 11^th of May 2013. These 2 girls are crazy, because they have registered for 3KM obstacle run at 3pm and 6KM trail run at 8pm. Their craziness doesn’t stop there as on the next day, the run another 7km deuter trail run in Putrajaya, Malaysia. Other than them, we wont forget EFR 14 who has recently been really  active in blazing the trails.

Other than Adee, this was that 2 crazy girls' first trail run and they love it. Both of them love hiking, so trail run was like climbing the mountain but instead of walking they have to run. The obstacle was fun they said. They need to finish the obstacle race within 30 minutes.  For EFR 7 who run with her bootcamp’s friends, she did quite well, finished the 3km obstacle race in 23 minutes and get top 100, thanks to Chief Original Bootcamp training.

EFR 14 reached the finishing line

They only joined 6km for the trail run (other categories was 12km and 18km) at night as they need to save energy for another 7km deuter trail run in the next morning. It is a really off-road run in the forest of Mandai, Singapore. Its easily to get injured if you land your feet wrongly and your ankle easily get twisted. It was very dark, and everyone is given a head-torchlight to ease their run and give them better visibility while running. EFR 7 managed to finished top 100 again, rank at 75 out of 705 people within 55 minutes and EFR25 finished the 6km trail run within 1hr and 19 minutes.

After the race, they are given unlimited cold milo and also ice cream from walls (can choose from paddle pop rainbow, split, vanilla cornetto). They also was given a mosquito repellent before the run and sunblock before the obstacle run in the afternoon. Singapore once again did organized a good run for the participants. There was a carnival where you can play free games and earn prizes and also mini treasure hunts for runners or non-runners to join during their free time.

As expected, with bootcampers..lolx #EFR 7

Distance: +-7KM Trail

Well, after the night trail race, they heading back home at their cousin’s place in Bukit Batok, Singapore and have a 5 hours sleep before heading back to Malaysia at 4.30am in the morning. With 3 hours and 20 minutes journey from Singapore to Putrajaya inclusive of few stop along the way to pump up Petrol and to perform Subuh prayer (they cant avoid speeding as they need to be at the race venue before 8am), they managed to reach Putrajaya 10 minutes before the Deuter trail run start. Both EFR7 and EFR25 managed to complete the run and breaking their record to run 16KM trail in total within 18 hours in 2 countries (Singapore and Malaysia). EFR7 and EFR25 somehow prefer the trail route in Putrajaya, Malaysia more as compared to the night trail in Mandai, Singapore. Thumbs up to both of the girls, EFR team proud of you two.
