HK100 - CP Stations

Jeng Jeng Jeng! 

Deng Deng Deng! 

It's HK100 CP station aid ! 

When my friend posted in Facebook, I'm was surprised and never expect these luxury! 

But given so many foods available, there's always risk of over-eating or new foods during race which possible can turn your stomach up side down left right and Uturn too! 

While my experience in  Sundown 100 & TMBT told me, all i need are COKE, Oranges in every stations, while at 50KM point, i need solids food. 

oh realized, HK100 did not provide Nutella ! oh... Y NO NUTELLA ! 

haha... 

The Most Beautiful Thing TMBT - 1 day to go

Tomorrow most of us are flying to Kota Kinabalu for The Most Beautiful Thing ( TMBT ) 100KM, single stage, Sabah Adventure Challenge Trail Ultra Marathon.

As i wrote just now, it's "Single Stage" where we did not get luxury treatment like Sundown Ultra Marathon where we have transition point at 50KM, we need to carry our nutrition from the beginning to sustain until the end of the race 100KM. 

Nutella - The favourite food of Killian Jornet, the champion of recently Mount KK Climbathon... 

Honey - I read somewhere it's help... i kiasu, so i brought... No harm for bringing extra nutrition... 

Peanut butter !

Clif Bar - The Leader in organic energy and nutrition food and drinks

I was brought from US in bulk and half of the above i was testing it during my usual training. 

Now it's all i have left. All are to sustain maximum of 36 hours, try to target 30 hours if possible. 

While the power bar gels at the back were brought last weekend! 24 packs to standby. 

Last weekend, I have chance to meet up with TriStupe.com where he show me demo on Map Reading 101 . I was abit blur at the initial stage and subsequently managed to learn the logic behind. 

Thank you TriStupe. 

As i mentioned in previous post, i will updates my FB status via twitter along the whole race wherever i can get Celcom signal. 

Do follow me ( @vin_ann)  if you wish to follow my TMBT race status updates.
:)

Lastly, All the best to all TMBT participants which include me and GOOD LUCK! 

99% of hard work, 1% of luck. 

Almond Butter @ KL - Level checks

Wednesday evening was received the almond butter and I did not consume it immediately. I was spending time to stir, stir and stir for almost 30 minutes before my hand decided to stop. 

Stored in the fridge and took out on yesterday (Thursday) morning and bring it to office. This is to poison some of my healthy colleagues and one of them who informed me about Almond Butter which he never taste before. 

In office pantry, I continue to stir before paste on the bread... 

This photo was taken after few pastes to bread... It's totally different from peanut butter. I continue to stir whenever i have time! The bottom part are still hard... 

Sharing my Almond butter with colleagues... They love it. I feel happy can share this with them. 

End of the day, my almond butter is quite "Laku" haha... Guess that's all about my healthy colleagues who trying. The other non-healthy colleagues never bother wanted to try the almond butter... 

On other hand, my colleague who intro almond butter to me looked at the nutrition label, he was surprise almond butter able to give 4g of "dietary fiber which is very good and there's hardly anything can offer such high dietary fiber, unless you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables.  Okay, I'm really not well in nutrition facts and use but will google and continue to improve my nutrition. 

Happy Friday! 

Almond Butter in KL

Hello, Hello Malaysians...If you're looking for almond butter in KL, yes, you have come to right place. 

Yesterday, until yesterday I was lost and give up on the search for the almond butter in KL. 

But all the suddenly my friend tweeted me saying that there's a shop is selling Almond Butter but currently out-of-stock! At least i know there's a shop in KL is selling Almond Butter. 

Subsequently, my friend messaged me that the shop still have 3 bottles of almond butter in store! Hoorey... But i was shock on the pricing. Digesting the price shock and finally I asked my friend to help me buy almond butter for me. She was buying from Country Farm @ Bangsar Villege as she working nearby.
