Mount Kinabalu Climbathon - Special Edition

Interesting facts about this event? Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

The elite at the events, from Mexico, Spain, Italy, Czeh, Venuseula and others are very friendly. You can speak to them and take pictures with them as though they are like a normal person. Unlike some event, you don't even know who/where the hell they are until the race start!!!

Veteran and Ladies standard are pretty closed. Ladies and Veteran winners are less than 1min apart.

Ladies 3-4 winners are "decided" before hand. Both came back almost holding hands. Very suspicious. Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

The kenyan that got 6th postition at last year SCSM05 was there, i meet him around 1km mark after he had U-turn, claim that he is injure. Sim tells me the kenyan complains that this is not his type of run and u-turn back at 2km mark. Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

This is the 5th year for Mount Kinabalu for Skyrunner event, it means this will cease to be Skyrunner event(series) until next bidding round. When is it? Nobody knows. Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
