Terry Fox

I don’t feel that this is unfair.
That’s the thing about cancer.
I’m not the only one, it happens all the time to people.
I’m not special.
This just intensifies what I did.
It gives it more meaning.
It’ll inspire more people.
I just wish people would realise that anything’s possible if you try; dreams are made possible if you try.”

– Terry Fox (1958-1981)

馬拉松參賽名額增至五萬

渣打馬拉松今屆將提早於明年二月舉行,參賽名額增加至五萬人,主辦單位吸取上一屆賽事中有逾六千人不適及受傷的訓,將推出多項措施,盡量減少受傷人數及對交通的影響,包括將最受歡迎的「十公里挑戰賽」移師至路面較闊及平坦的東區走廊進行,不經西隧,與半馬拉松及馬拉松賽道分開,以減少賽道出現人逼人情況,而各賽事項目的終點亦改在四通八達的銅鑼灣維多利亞公園,便於疏散人潮。大會表示,比賽期間將實施封路措施,預計當日下午二時後重開,估計對周邊道路的交通影響不大。
今屆的渣打馬拉松賽事共分三個比賽項目,包括全馬拉松、半馬拉松及十公里挑戰賽,名額亦由去年約四萬三千人增加至五萬人,比賽日期定於明年二月十七日。對於今年賽道有所更改,賽事籌備委員會主席高威林解釋將「十公里挑戰賽」的起點改在東區走廊炮台山至西灣河段舉行,而馬拉松及半馬拉松賽事則在尖沙咀美麗華酒店出發,目的是減低西隧的人流,避免出現擠擁情況。終點則由以往的灣仔金紫荊廣場移師到維園,以方便人潮疏散。由於增多了賽道,大會亦要增加多數百名義工提供支援服務。

每三公里設救傷站
鑑於上一屆的賽事有六千二百人感不適及受傷惹來詬病,高威林則澄清有關數字的真實性,他說:「有選手四次膠布紮腳趾就計算為有四次受傷,令到整個受傷數目好大。」因此,大會將與醫療輔助隊商討如何界定受傷的定義。避免選手因翳焗感不適,大會每兩點五至三公里便設立一個救傷站、供水站及海綿站,為選手降溫。高又指雖然十公里挑戰賽改為東區走廊進行,但不會令東隧構成交通影響:「十公里賽事朝早五點幾進行,預計九時半結束,賽道便會解封。」

而將代表香港隊參加「渣打馬拉松—全球最強之戰」的業餘跑手蔡達明贊成將賽道分流,有助他參賽。加上公眾可以在終點站前一公里為選手打氣,支持聲亦有助跑出好成績。

Each team will comprise five runners. Each runner has to complete 3km, with the total distance being 15km. Prizes will be offered to the top five teams in each category.

Vegiyathuman said they had limited participation to 250 teams.

Kuantan TC Run

Saturday 20/10/2007
Quite sometimes already, I did not participate the race with my gang, almost a month after PAR3. Furthermore, this time we are heading to Kuantan, Teluk Chempedak.
Raymond, due to some personal reason has to withdraw from this event, a day before the departure, SC injured his toe nail…*sigh* what a bad luck? But for the sake of support to the gang, he decides to join us to Kuantan. Of course, not to forget our VVIP who joining us for this journey,Saiful…who really make our trip very interesting and funny.
We meet up at KL Sentra, have a quick lunch at Mcdonalds, then quickly start our journey, heavy rain along the ways. We only reach Vistana Hotel at 6.30pm.. Meet few PM’s there …collecting our bib no, vest then proceed to my brother’s house. After dinner at Sri Mahkota, the food quite delicious, and then we go to Teluk Chempedak, We have a rough measurement of the route as according to the route map, which appear quite close to 10km.

Sunday 21/10/2007
We reach Teluk Chempedak at 6:40am, meet Jamie there… after reporting, we start our warm up session. SC will take care of our belongings. The race start on time at 7.15am.i am quite worry with my sore throat and cough, hence I only set my target at about 49mins.
Haha at first thought of pace with CM, but after find that my legs is in quite good condition and TH and Saiful are really far away in front, I push myself to increase my speed.. The first 6km, I practice at constant 4:40-4:50 pace, pacing with the runners who have almost the same speed like me. When come to the 6Km distance, I know here with b some descending slopes, I push myself further to close the gaps from the runners in front and can see TH about 200meter in front when reaching 9km. But with only 1km left and based on his performance right now, It is very difficult for me to keep close to him. I finished at the position of 21th with timing of 44.38, TH at position of 19th with timing of 44:20 while VVIP Saiful 16th with timing of 42:59. Personally, I am very satisfy with my result.

Do You Know Where You're Going To

Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?

Do you get
What you're hoping for?
When you look behind you there's no open door
What are you hoping for?

Once we were standing still in time
Chasing the fantasies
That filled our minds
You knew how I loved you
But my spirit was free
Laughing' at the questions
That you once asked of me

Now looking back at all we've planned
We let so many dreamsJust slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long
Before we'll see
How sad the answers
To those questions can be
Do you like the things that life is showing you

Do you know
where you´re going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know...?

Do you get What you´re hoping for
When you look behind you
There´s no open door What are you hoping for?
Do you know...?

Pacemaker Network Run 2008 - ON

We would like to announce that the above run already got approval from DBKL.

It is "ON"

死亡运动之马拉松 - 芝加哥命案分析心脏病是主因

“坚持,一定要坚持”查理·希伯尔在芝加哥马拉松赛赛程过半后,仍不停的往身上浇着水,他默默地给自己鼓着劲,他觉得自己一定能够坚持跑完全程,虽然今年已是35岁的年龄,但他是一名警官,平日生活习惯良好,也不乏锻炼,完成马拉松应该不成问题。

然而,悲剧在他努力的跑完了18英里后发生了,毫无征兆地,查理瘫软在煞白的马路上,很快地,脉搏停止了跳动。等到医护人员赶到并将他送往当地医院时,魂魄已经悄悄离开了他的身体。当天下午一点,这位倔强的长跑爱好者被宣布死亡。

据主治医生介绍,查理·希伯尔患有二尖瓣脱垂,过于激烈的运动,导致心源性猝死。心性猝死是指在既往健康的状态下因非创伤性原因引起的意外心脏骤停,并于发病6小时内死亡,它是运动性猝死的最主要原因。2004年10月17日,北京国际马拉松赛暨第5届首都高校马拉松挑战赛过程中,两名业余选手
——北京某大学学生和某长跑俱乐部联队队员猝死。一年后的10月16日,在2005年北京国际马拉松赛上,又发生了相似的一幕,一名26岁的业余选手猝死。而究其死因,都和心源性猝死离不开。

当然,引发死亡的还有炎热的天气和马拉松恶劣的外界条件也是容易发生悲剧的根源。“那天的气温很热,街上没有一点风,空气出奇的潮湿。”一名参赛队员回忆着当时芝加哥马拉松赛的情况,据估计,当天早上的温度已高达二十度,随着比赛的进行,气温更是急剧攀升到31度,这时候,很多的参赛者已经出现体力不支,严重脱水等状况。

因为马拉松距离很长,管理也相对困难。本次芝加哥公路赛的主办官员解释说“水都是放在桌上由参赛者自己拿去。很多队员在炎热的天气下,用矿泉水浇在身上用来降温,而不是必要的补给,导致后面很多选手没有足够的饮用水导致最后严重脱水。”

即便如此,大多数人认为主办方不应该为自己开脱,有人甚至认为“在如此恶劣的情况下,组委会在比赛进行了三个半小时后才宣布中止,是一件很残忍,很不人道的事情。”

历史总是以自己的方式提醒着人们不要忘记,“欢乐吧,雅典人,我们胜利啦!”公元前450年斐里庇得斯在雅典城的中央广场激动地大叫后倒地,那时,马拉松便有了死亡的味道。

40公里又200米,一个马拉松的距离,一个从生到死的尺度。2007年的10月8日,又一个完好的生命因为马拉松而丧命。

芝加哥马拉松:

创办于20世纪70年代,自1997年起,连续3年创造出惊人的成绩,从而成为全美最好最大的马拉松。环形的路线平坦、宽敞、速度很快,起点和终点都在位于密歇根湖畔辽阔的格兰特公园。这条路线充分展示了芝加哥的迷人之处,从市中心的摩天大楼到城市的北部,西部和南部不同种族的聚居区,这些都是很多旅游者从没看到过的。


二尖瓣脱垂(mitral valve prolapse):

指由于二尖瓣装置异常,造成瓣膜在心室收缩期异常地脱入左房。此约1/4~l/5的患者无症状。症状多为非特异性,以间隙性、反复性、一过性为特点。半数以上有胸痛,位于心前区,为钝痛,锐痛或刀割样疼痛,可以是一过性,亦可持续数小时,含服硝酸甘油效果不一。偶尔可有典型心绞痛症状。胸痛可能是由于脱垂的瓣叶使乳头肌及其周围左心室壁过度牵张,引起缺血和冠状动脉痉挛所致。约半数有心悸,少数有头晕和晕厥。活动时心电图连续监护发现,心悸和心律失常之间的相关性不高。晕厥亦可出现在无心律失常时。40%患者有气短、乏力症状。如有严重二尖瓣返流,可出现左心功能不全症状。偶尔有一过性脑缺血表现。除了上述与二尖瓣功能紊&#
20081;及并发症有关的症状外,患者可有焦虑不安、过度换气等自主神经系统功能紊乱症状。

一參賽者熱死.芝加哥馬拉松中途停賽

(法新社芝加哥七日電)官員表示,一名參賽者不堪創紀錄高溫熱死、三百五十多人也不堪酷熱住院後,芝加哥馬拉松大賽中途取消。

但仍有數千名參賽者不顧官員警告,執意在攝氏三十一度高溫下繼續前進,中繼休息站提供的飲水被一掃而空。

監督賽事安全的芝加哥消防隊透過發言人羅卡沙瓦表示:「我們試著封鎖道路,但大家跳過封鎖線,或跳上腳踏車,就是不想停下來。」

近三萬六千人從上午八點,氣溫僅攝氏二十度時,開始參加這場馬拉松比賽。近兩萬五千人完成全程,但僅有四千人在比賽取消前完成全程。

四十四歲的法籍選手拉格列夫在比賽初期就喝大量的水,所以高溫並未對他產生太大影響,最後他以三小時三十四分跑完全程,比他在其他十三項馬拉松比賽創下的個人最佳紀錄快十分鐘。

他賽完全程後,一邊在終點線旁找他太太,一邊表示:「我有個朋友沒辦法跑完,他真的很失望,但原則是要健康地跑完。」

Record numbers for bridge run

Source from : The STAR

The eighth edition of the Johor-Singapore Second Link bridge run is expected to draw some 20,000 participants.

State Tourism and Environment Committee chairman Freddie Long said the latest event, which is hosted by the state government, would record one of its highest numbers of participants.

"The response is very encouraging and shows an increase in participants.

"The last time we hosted the event in 2003, more than 11,000 participated," he said after the soft launch of the Nusajaya Johor-Singapore Second Link Bridge Marathon 2007 at City Square Johor Baru here Saturday.

Long said that some 10,000 students from schools in the state would be taking part.

He said the objective of the marathon was to strengthen bilateral relations between Malaysia and Singapore as well as promote tourism in both countries.

The event would be held on Nov 11, and offers a cash prizes amounting to RM93,700.

Last year, six thousand runners took part in the seventh edition of the marathon.

Coming from 10 countries, the participants ran 10km from Tuas and back in a bid to win prizes totalling S$11,575 (RM27,150).
