My surreal experience continued the next day after the Penang Marathon - suffice to just summarize the unreal experience Penang - KL - Manila - Clark in 15 hours :
- Nov 22 Sunday - Left Penang at 5pm, reached KL at 6pm, left KL for Manila at 120am, reached Manila at 515am, left Manila at 545am, reached Clark airforce base / freeport at 830am (with 1 hr stop in between)
- 645am, Nov 23 Monday - I was eating pancakes for breakfast on a highway stop (2 pieces + sausage) north going to Clark with my colleague Ambe. The place was filled with people in less than 45 mins, which included COINCIDENTALLY 6 people we knew who were going for the same workshop!!
- 830am, Nov 23 Monday - I arrived at Clark airforce base, only to find a small cute hotel in the middle of a long road to no where, we did not find the hotel because they were constructing a casino in the front!
- 930am, Nov 23 Monday - the client offsite workshop started with a PRAYER.. this is the first time I actually stood for a prayer before a workshop .. wow
- fast forward 9pm, Nov 23 Monday - we had nothing to do at night and I was watching Amazing Race in a room in Clark in remote nowhere, with my colleague Ambe - I had missed the last 4-5 episodes of this show... and to be watching it in remote hotel... unreal... slept before 11pm, dead tired from the LONG weekend
- 6am, Nov 24 Tuesday - client invited me to run at 5am, I got up at 6am and felt crossed with myself, and still remembered my poor Penang time - stepped out in my Puma sneakers and ran almost 10km in the middle of a damn straight road to no where - luckily I avoided the airforce base heheh
- Tuesday whole day workshop, busy like hell, and 330pm, back to Manila, then 855pm, back to KL... what a whirlwind two days
