I am so proud of the four teams. The atmosphere was fun, full of laughters but yet we have to shoulder all kinds of stress. Stress of being chased and overtaken by all kinds of runners - fast runners, old veterans, and even school kids. Other than that, most of us are just smilling away along the run and some even post like models to the photographers

Just like Series 1 relay, the excitement started with Manissha coming in among the top 4 runners before passing the baton to me. The stress is unbearable for the boys to keep the position but anyhow, we did our best and only got beaten by 12 teams, finishing at 16th position of the 82 teams.

Two Thumbs Up to Ronnie See & the crews. The relay was well organised by the Pacemakers. They have provide pleasant and comfort platform for the runners. Thank you very much !!!

This time, we have new faces running for the Coolpacer.

Welcome Pui Lee, Jessie, Mr. Leong !!!!!

Till then, see ya.

We entered the race with just participation spirit but joy came later because we were all inspired to do well with great anticipations and never say die attitude.

It all began with our 13 year-old jewel, Manissha that came in 3rd placing of the 80 teams by beating many top female runners at an astonishing time, 14:28. Her run has given so much stress to her boys to keep the position. Next came Fion Law who also came in among the top 20 women runners to pass the baton to her boys.
