Healthy walk aka Jacob's Walk of Life - 21 June 2009
Monday, Jun 29, 2009 8:31PM / Standard Entry
Event: Jacob’s Walk Of Life
Date: 21 June 2009
Venue: Taman Metropolitan Kepong
On Sunday morning, I woke up early in the morning to participate in the event above. It’s a free event organized by Jacobs Malaysia with some partners – Anlene, Fitness First, Mizuno & some others whch I could not remember. This is also supported by Ministry of Health. The main purpose is to create a healthy lifestyle by encouraging us to walk & eat Jacob’s biscuits…. Ha ha…Some advertisements here.
I went alone to this event, none of my friends interested to join this, some have other things to do, some just plain lazy, some wanted to spend time with family coz it’s a Sunday. Ok…fine… nothing can kill my enthusiasm so I went ahead alone. This is my first time joining an event alone by myself. Most people come with family or a bunch of friends & mostly are from surrounding neighbourhoods.
By the time I reached there, it’s almost 7.30a.m, a lot of people have reached & many many cars were already parked at the roadside _ there were not enough parking spaces available. OMG, I parked my car at the other entrance & have to walk like about 15 mins to reach the registration counter. Already sweating like hell.
I was late, registration counter almost closed. I got my T-shirt & a band. Quickly went to change & go to the starting line. The walk is about 5km . I think we only walk 1 round which is covers the whole park. Phew… this park is huge. My 1st time walking in this park & I notice many people fishing in the lake/pond & a lot of people did cycling as well.
Not forgetting to mentioned – the sunrise view is awesome… I took this with my compact digital camera, if using DSLR will be nicer. Participants totaling about 5000pax & you can see us is a sea of yellow colours walking & walking. Along the way we see some mascots & took the opportunity to took pics with them. First stop toilet – lots of people need to release their water tank. They have posted some questions which we have to answer along the way & if not mistaken, correct entries are entitled to prizes.
The walk was completed by about 9.45a.m – back to the starting point & we can redeem a Jacob’s goodie bag using our wrist band. So I queue up again, the long queue is killing some of thepeople’s patient & started shouting & yelling. Come on la, it’s a just a freebie, why fret over small things. Some even complained that when it’s their turn , 1 of the freebie finished blah blah blah…… In my opinions, the organizer already giving out freebies, you don’t need to pay so why complained. No sense of appreciation. The walk also free, usually when we participate in a walk, we have to pay the registration fees. Come on folks…
I went to meet my friend in Kepong after the walk, though they have some other events going on coz it’s too hot there. We have this Ulu Yam Low mee. Delicious & tasty. It’s located in Kepong near the Old Odeon cinema.After that, I drove to Times Square to meet up with another friend who’s going to be a camp leader for the upcoming Famine 30 Hours event. I took some registration form from her… yes I’m going to participate in this event.We meet up at Sweet Chat & this my dessert – Durian chendol – in my opinion not the best chendol I ever tested.After discussion, time to go back for a nap. I’m so sleepy now.

I really thankful to my friend, Gwen for inviting me to the yoga beginner class at beyoga - the latest yoga centre in Damansara Perdana.
I have my 1st session of yoga yesterday at 7p.m. My instructor is Ms. Lila from America. We have total 6 person in the class, 5 ladies & 1 guy. It's a good session & I feel a lot fresher after the class. I'm thinking to take up yoga class....coz it really can help me to calm down after a hectic day.
