BREAKDOWN OF PARTICIPATION - SCKLM 2012
There is no easy way to complete a 42.195km but it is not impossible with the right support from all relevant parties particularly the Ministry of Youth & Sports, Kuala Lumpur City Hall and the Traffic Police. The Running community and the Public in general also can play an equally important role for this healthy sport.
Just 34 days to the big day. Are you ready to take on the City that Never Sleep on foot?
As usual, I'll be in my tortoise pace roaming the town on foot 'legally' (Thank You SCKLM for the opportunity) checking in to the various local food outlets, taking advantage of the 6 hours on the road. Remember to carbo load and hydrate well before the race.
See you on 24 June 2012 at Dataran Merdeka!

SHIN SPLINTS
- Tenderness, soreness or pain along the inner part of your lower leg
- Mild swelling in your lower leg
When to see a doctor
Consult your doctor if rest, ice and over-the-counter pain relievers don't ease your shin pain. Your primary care doctor may refer you to an orthopedist. Seek prompt medical care if:
- Severe pain in your shin follows a fall or accident
- Your shin is hot and inflamed
- Swelling in your shin seems to be getting worse
- Shin pain persists during rest
- Running downhill
- Running on a slanted or tilted surface
- Running in worn-out footwear
- Engaging in sports with frequent starts and stops, such as basketball and tennis
Risk factors
- You're a runner, especially just beginning a running program
- You have flat feet or rigid arches, causing your feet to roll inward when running
- You increase the intensity of your workouts by doing more high-impact activities
- You play sports on hard surfaces, with sudden stops and starts
- You're in military training
- Rest. Avoid activities that cause pain, swelling or discomfort — but don't give up all physical activity. While you're healing, try low-impact exercises, such as swimming, bicycling or water running. If your shin pain causes you to limp, consider using crutches until you can walk normally without pain.
- Ice the affected area. Apply ice packs to the affected shin for 15 to 20 minutes at a time, four to eight times a day for several days. To protect your skin, wrap the ice packs in a thin towel.
- Reduce swelling. Elevate the affected shin above the level of your heart, especially at night. It may also help to compress the area with an elastic bandage or compression sleeve. Loosen the wrap if the pain increases, the area becomes numb or swelling occurs below the wrapped area.
- Take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Try ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), naproxen sodium (Aleve, others) or acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) to reduce pain.
- Wear proper shoes. Your doctor may recommend a shoe that's especially suited for your foot type, your stride and your particular sport.
- Consider arch supports. Arch supports can help cushion and disperse stress on your shinbones. Off-the-shelf arch supports come in various sizes and can be fitted immediately. More durable arch supports can be custom-made from a plaster cast of your foot.
- Choose the right shoes. Wear footwear that suits your sport. If you're a runner, replace your shoes about every 350 to 500 miles (560 to 800 kilometers).
- Consider arch supports. Arch supports can help prevent the pain of shin splints, especially if you have flat arches.
- Lessen the impact. Cross-train with a sport that places less impact on your shins, such as swimming, walking or biking. Remember to start new activities slowly. Increase time and intensity gradually.
- Add strength training to your workout. To strengthen your calf muscles, try toe raises. Stand up. Slowly rise up on your toes, then slowly lower your heels to the floor. Repeat 10 times. When this becomes easy, do the exercise holding progressively heavier weights. Leg presses and other exercises for your lower legs can be helpful, too.
