KL Marathon 2019 Pacer Kit Presentation by Under Armour
Hey! It’s almost 2
more month to Standard Chartered KL
Marathon 2019 (SCKLM 2019) race day on 29th Sept, 2019, are you
ready? Recently, I was at SCKLM 2019 Pacer
Kit Presentation by Under Armour. It’s also Under Armour debut at the SCKLM
and I’m looking forward to my Under Armour SCKLM 2019 Running Tees together
with over 40,000 runners, yay!

Under Armour
Malaysia outfit the 30-member Pacer team for the marathon with the newly
designed UA HOVR performance running
footwear and race kits to enable
them to train better. 24 pacers will be assisting runners in the Full Marathon
category under a variety of finishing times and another 6 pacers for the Half
Marathon category.

During the session,
some pacers shared their best moments and memories, it’s very inspiring. Well,
I did full marathon before and I knew how it felt like especially at 36KM the
last few kilometers were like… omg I remembered I asked myself “why I did this
to myself” but yeah… when I crossed the finishing line it’s worth it. This year
I’m running 21km and hope that I can achieve my PB.
As a runner, pacers
are important they are my target, marking and motivation also. Pacers ensure that
I finish according to my set time objectives. Pacers are usually very
experienced runners who can run at a steady pace for other runners with similar
time objectives to follow. Thanks to all the pacers who constantly encourage
runner like me to finish strong especially the last few kilometers and also
they are my timekeeper.
Well, it’s time to
start training and keep the momentum coming. By the way, SCKLM 2019 will see a
record-breaking high of 40,000 participants who will converge at Dataran
Merdeka on the 28th and 29th of September 2019. See you there!
