Mad Race – 06 June 2009

its a late post regarding the Mad Race which i entered last Saturday

due to the persuasion and the forcing from my college friend, GAN, 2 of my friends and I has registered in the race without knowing what to expect.

although the whole race was created based on the original AMAZING RACE..this is different…its done LOCALLY…more malaysian version…along the Kelana Jaya LRT route

tons of challenges awaits ur in different location..and of course..we need to solve something in order to get CLUES FOR THE OUR NEXT LOCATION..

here is a summary on the location we went..and the challenges in each of the place..

1. Church (Starting point)
• crossword puzzle
• 2 vans available..1 van permits only 1 team to hop on the van
2. Wangsa Maju
• First LRT station of the entire race
• Buy ticket..go to the last station on the LRT route
3. Terminal Putra
• Find a car with a particular number plate
• Get the clue, hop on LRT again
4. Ampang Park
• SPRINT to the nearest petrol station
• Fill up petrol for 10 person, ask them to sign
• Show the proof to the station master
• We confused about the clue and we went to KLCC instead of JELATEK
• Another challenge, do STAR JUMP according to the clue
• Misunderstand again..we did in each station rather than do it once along the way
5. Jelatek
• SPRINT again to the nearest tennis court
• Solve the sudoku with our belongings….
• Get the clue..head towards the park in the heart of KL
6. KLCC
• Search the whole park for the station master
• Station master can be identified by looking at their red line tags and a yellow coloured arm band
• Challenge : eat marshmallow with some rubber band on top of your lip
• A lucky pick was held, the misfit was..you need to wear your “present” throughout the race.
• I picked raincoat and shower cap..
• Get the clue, run to CM, or art market
7. Pasar Seni
• Take picture of the items listed in the paper
• Kena scolded and shoo-ed by the shopkeepers
• BUT, we still take pictures….secretly…
8. Wangsa Maju
• Run to Mad Monkeyz
• 2 people in the challenge, need to complete the given task in 10 minutes
• After completion, i think we was too fast
• No vans can be located
• So, we took taxi to the wangsa maju station as we thought the van is there
• When we reach there, we took another decision..which is..go back to MAD MONKEYZ…by taxi again
• At last, we saw the van
9. Church (Finish)
• Reach the church, the final challenge
• SPECIAL blend liquid provided for us to drink
• With a fast gulp, all done

special thanks to campus-action..without them..we could not join such crazy event…

after all the challenges..we did all of them..and we finished the race…in 6 hours..and 7 LRT stations…we got place number…#1

the prize…confidential……ask me for it…

after a tiring weekend..and to sum up…
