What you eat before, during, and after race day matters more than most runners think. 🍌

Here's what Sports Nutritionist Adi Farizzul shared last Sunday:

🏃🏻‍♂️Pre-race: Test your hydration strategy during long runs. Load up on carbohydrates and reduce your fibre intake 2 to 3 days before race day.

🏃🏻‍♂️‍During the race: Take 1 to 2 energy gels at 30-minute intervals to keep your energy levels consistent.

🏃🏻‍♂️Post-race: Drink lots of water and prioritise protein intake to help your muscles recover.

Simple, practical, and race-tested. Save this for your race day prep! 📌

Kah Yan and Tracy signed up to run for Hospis Malaysia — the organisation that walked alongside their family when their grandma was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and chose palliative care over chemotherapy.

This video was filmed while their grandmother was still with them. She passed away recently.

They now run in her honour, and for every family that Hospis Malaysia supports.

Hospis Malaysia has been providing palliative care since 1991. While often associated with end-of-life care, it actually supports people at any stage of serious illness — helping them live more comfortably and with dignity.

Funds raised through KLSCM 2026 will support Hospis Malaysia’s patient care services, offered at no charge. Treating one patient costs about RM50 per day, covering medication, consultations, equipment loans, and 24-hour emergency support.

⏰ Time: 6.30AM – 9.30AM
📍 Location: Arena Sukan Kuala Lumpur

General Running Clinic #3 — done! ✅

Yesterday's session was packed with insights on one of the most critical aspects of race preparation — nutrition and hydration for performance and recovery.

🏃 Our coaches covered practical heat management tips — from using a cold towel on your neck, to timing fluid intake at water stations and spotting early signs of dehydration.

👟 ASICS athlete shared his personal fuelling strategy — what to eat on race day and what to avoid the day before.

🔬 Sports nutritionist Adi broke down energy gels and how to strategically boost carbohydrate intake mid-run to keep you going strong to the finish.

The kind of knowledge that doesn't just help you finish — it helps you finish well. 💪

The next running clinic on injury prevention opens tomorrow at 10AM — mark your calendars!

The next step in your Half and Full Marathon preparation is here.

Training Block & Periodisation is a topic that separates runners who simply log kilometres from those who train with a purpose. In our 2nd Specialised Running Clinic, Coach YK and Coach Karsten will break down how to structure your training in the weeks leading up to race day — so every session you put in between now and October counts.

Expect to put theory into practice with 400m and 200m speed intervals on the day. 🏃‍♂️💨

⏰ Time: 6.30AM – 9.30AM

🏃‍♀️ 400m speed interval session
🧘 Cool down and stretching — remember to bring your yoga mat
🏆 ASICS Challenge with a pair of ASICS shoes up for grabs!
☕ Q&A and refreshments to round off the morning

If you've signed up, we'll see you at Arena Sukan Kuala Lumpur — and don't forget to remind your friends who registered too!

Our first Performance & Recovery Workshop is happening this Saturday at Dynamique Sports Rehab Centre! 🏃‍♂️

The team from Dynamique will be introducing you to the world of Kinesio Taping — what it is, why runners use it, and how it can support your body through training and recovery in the lead up to race day.

Expect a hands-on session where you'll learn the correct principles of application, understand what to watch out for, and put it all into practice yourself. Come ready to tape! 🩹

If you've signed up, we'll see you at 7AM — and don't forget to remind your friends who registered too! 💪

Your body knows what it's doing. 👣

Every step follows a natural sequence — and pronation is a key part of it. It isn't a problem. It's a feature.

It only becomes a concern with excessive overpronation — linked to injuries like Achilles Tendinitis, Plantar Fasciitis, and Runner's Knee.

So the next time someone tells you that you "pronate" — you're supposed to. Every runner does.
