SLR Report from March 15

A small but dedicated group turned up to run the longest SLR yet….ELEVEN miles! This is in preparation for the KL half marathon at the end of March. The group was so busy chatting and enjoying the near traffic free countryside that the leader forgot to give the turnaround signal at 5.5 miles out and we ran until 5.7 miles out! Even with the added mileage, the return trip was nearly 5 minutes SHORTER than the outbound run and everyone felt good afterwards.

This week, March 22nd, we begin again from the ARA at the earlier time of 6:30AM. Please join us for our LAST run before KL! We will be running 12 miles in preparation for the half marathon in Kuala Lumpur!

IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO/CAN NOT RUN 12 MILES, PLEASE COME ANYWAY! WE USUALLY DO AN OUT AND BACK ROUTE AND YOU CAN RUN A FEW MILES WITH THE GROUP BEFORE TURNING AROUND AND HEADING BACK TO THE ARA!

For anyone NOT running KL, could someone step up to be our volunteer ‘leader’ for SLR on Saturday March 29th? The distance can be the leader’s choice, preferably something in the 6-9 mile range. Please email dhakatriathlonclub@yahoo.com if you would be able to lead SLR for the day.

Thanks and see you Saturday!
