Haha.... last year I did the Desaru relay 21k run, it was kind of torturing waiting for the swimmer and biker to come back, don't think I have that patience to wait anymore, so likely I shall do the full this year.

I am not sure I am fit enough to do the ACE Adventure one week before the Desaru.

So How ?

Registration open liao!
See you at both events

*why not? AAC is walk-a-jog unless you/your teammate aiming for podium finish.
Desaru also walk-a-jog and catch up time with friends mah!

AAC is a walk-a-jog ??  

The difference between an adventure race and a triathlon race are;

In a triathlon race, U set your mind and the body would just follow what the mind tell it to do..The mind has only one objective - Finish it !!!

Whereas in the adventure race, your mind never rests....We were only told the reporting point during the briefing...I did not know what to do until the race day itself...Moreover, wearing of those eqpt on the body made me uncomfortable throughout the race... I had to ascertain that i was heading in the right direction to the next check point..If I was in the wrong track, i had to figure out what i must do quickly in order not to waste time... I have to ensure that I keep within the race time given...Furthermore, the bike track may be too steep to ride...Feeling of exhaustion and fatigue were set in....etc.....   

I have done a few adventure races locally and i found that it is a race for the younger ones...One needs an analytical mind and a strong body to tackle it , tough !!!

I have asked many IM who are adventure racers, they said it is a totally different ball game, the time u spent in the training may not commensurate with the result U wanted.

But it is always a good idea to do an adventure race before a triathlon race, so that the mind could just relax when u do the later
