Been thinking of doing a Duathlon this or next year to build up for my triathlon. The full (long distance) is super-daunting ! It'll be worse than doing a full marathon ! I took a peek at last year's race result.. Man.. 4-5hrs is the norm.. Thinking of Sprint but then, if I were to do it, I might as well jump straight into the full and use the next 4 months to prepare.. Biking will be my weakness, and there's the post-bike run which is all together a different experience !

OK, So I will have until end of July to think it over to enjoy the early bird fees.. It's super expensive - RM170 for the long distance and RM80 for the sprint. So I better be darn sure I will be around (no business assignment) at that time before I sign up !!  and this is 2 weeks before the PBIM !

Meantime.. Will keep dreaming for a little longer :)
