A 10km "Replacement" Walk at BMW Joy Run Event! 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️

.
Last Saturday, my friend invited me to a 10km run event which was organised by BMW. It was a replacement spot for her aunties who couldn't make it last minute. Since everything was paid, so I just took it as an opportunity to do morning exercise with my friends. 😄
.

.

.
All participants were supposed to reach by 6.30 am. Since we were not there to compete (more like we didn't want to wake up early 😂), we reached slightly before the flag-off time.
.
Participants with blue shirts are the 5km runners.
(Almost thought I attended a BN event 🤣)
.

.
Participants with grey shirts like us are the 10km runners. Here are our fresh faces before the run. 😄
.

.

.
This event was held in Cyberjaya, a less congested developing city that is around 33km away from Kuala Lumpur.
.
I mostly walked throughout the race as I didn't want to overexert myself since I'll have a badminton session 2 days after this event.
.

.
They were also policemen and event volunteers to help guard our safety and guide us the way throughout the race.
.

.
Came across these fast food outlets while jogging... Interesting distractions for those who felt hungry or want to give up halfway through the race. 😆
.

.
Passed by the fire brigade and hospital building too.
.

.
This is the HQ building of the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia. Or Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri (LHDN) in Malay.
.
With the coconut tree and blue window glasses, it looks like this building appeared out of nowhere on a desert island eh? 🏝️😎
.

.
Such a beautiful residential area with all the purple flowers and surrounding greeneries. :)
.

.
D'Pulze Shopping Centre is one of the popular shopping malls in Cyberjaya.
.
I remember vividly that here's the 7km mark - the moment when I felt like my legs were not mine anymore. 😂 And the volunteers shouted "Come on come on!! Last 3km!!!!" Haha, what an encouragement! 💪 💪
.

.
Finally, we completed the race after 1h50 mins. Phewww~ Good job girls! 🙌😄
.

.
Love the medal design! The back of the medal is a tire rim design of a BMW car. Cool!
.

A sure have BMW display car at a BMW-organised event. 😁

Thank God the weather was good! No sun, no rain. It was a rather cloudy morning.

The last I did a public run like this was 9 years ago! The rest of the running events were all from the secondary school's sports day back then. Hahaha. I think this is the furthest run I've joined so far. Glad that I managed to complete this challenge, despite the undescribable-loosen-screw feelings on my legs at the 7km mark 😂.

In fact, both of my legs' muscles are still sore now. Haha but all good, it'll be recovered in no time! 🙌😄

Thanks @tattoodjay for organising the #WednesdayWalk community and @elizacheng #MakeMeSmile community. I had a great time writing and sharing my 10km walk and smile with my friends! 😊
