Recaps of Pangkor Run 1.0
June 24, 2019
16/6/2019 - Pangkor Island, Perak
To my surprise, there are lots of running events being organised around my working area - Manjung. Or maybe it is because currently I don't have much issue with logistic - like I can drive around to almost anywhere haha. So, after meeting few friends with common interest which is to join running events, we decided to give a try with this Pangkor Run.
I were very excited to imagine myself running along the beach and yeah, it was one of the nicest feeling ever! :D
Anyway, I feel like I gradually losing my writing skills, so, bear with this one yea. :)

Most of us were on postnight shift that day. It was quite an eventful night shift the previous day - with non-stop cases referred from Emergency Department and of course no sleep achieved that night hahaha. We were basically berkampung in ED attending new cases.
Went home around 10am, took our breakfast, did few pending stuffs here and there then... suddenly it was already 1pm. Actually we planned to take a ferry to Pangkor around 3pm. Unfortunately, the three of us overslept and woke up almost 5pm. We rushed to pack our bags, aimed for 6pm's ferry from Marina Island.
How to get to Pangkor from the mainland?
Only via ferries. I heard they want to redevelop the airport but later I guess.
You can take ferries either from Marina Jetty or Lumut Jetty.
It's been a while since I took the ferry from Lumut, so, not sure much about the rate and schedule. But if from Marina Jetty, here are the schedule and rate - much expensive but you can get to Pangkor at shortest time compared to Lumut :)
You can park your car around the jetty with RM15/day.

We checked in Puteri Bayu Beach Resort that night, booked a room for girls and another room for boys. Rate was RM100 for each room, with 2x breakfast each.

Woke up around 5.30am, as the run will start around 6.30am. To be honest, this was the first event that really start the run on time, lol. Actually, even 5 minutes earlier. Run was okay but my pace was just acceptable. Hahaha.
Dah lama tak lari, memang haru la pace nya.
5 of us. Another one was having AGE-_-' |
After the run and taking pictures here and there, the girls decided to enjoy the beach and the view. Since the hotel was connected to the beach, we didn't have to take any taxi / walk far though. :)
The view was amazing. I have not much memories of Pangkor since the last time I went to Pangkor was ages ago! Even, I have been working in Manjung for 1 year plus, yet, I didn't have the chance to go there within this 1 year haha.
Loving the wave :D |
Nak berenang, tapi segan :D |
The water was really cold :D But, still mesmerizing! |
The girls :D |
The journey was short yet sweet.
Looking forward for more running events together with them! :)
Let's go home :) |
I've completed my 4th posting in housemanship :)
Pray for my next one, guys!
It will be either Paediatrics or Emergency department hehe
