JK1M: Obstacle Race at Taman Metropolitan Kepong

This morning we participated in the last event of Jom Kurus 1Malaysia season 4 event, obstacle race. It was held at Taman Metropolitan Kepong, Kuala Lumpur.

Again, as the Zumba and aerobic event, this was for all the team in Klang Valley but sadly only 8 teams participated.



For us, Wangsa Maju team, we were divided into 3 group since almost 30 of us came today. I was on the 2nd team

The were 8 obstacles station scattered throughout the whole park. The first was burpee and taking 6 kg kettlebells up the stairs. Not much problem here but the next station, we need to jog for almost 1 km. The next station challenge was to carry 2 water container up and down a hill.

At the 3rd station, we need to flip tyres. Again not so much problem but I started to feel the heat. At the 4th station, we need to run with a 10kg sand bag on our shoulder, clean it 5 times and run back to the starting point.

At the 5th station I gave up. Half-way climbing the 50% slope hill, I feel like gonna blackouts. So, I opted out from the race entirely. The next station was bear crawl, duck walk and climbing up the 4 stories observation tower.

In the end, our team managed to finish at 8th place, while the other two teams got 9th and 14th place.

Overall, it was a good challenge, eve though I didn't managed to complete it. I was nice to get some workout done with all my comrades together, Hopefully, in the future we will be able to have this kind of activity again.
