Wednesday 27 July 2011.

No matter how tough or no matter how pain it is, takes it slow and easy but don't give up unless you're injured.

At times people will criticize forget about them and keep on moving. You only can change yourself from failure to success.

If you are not rich it’s ok don’t be jealous but be rich in the heart. God will make you rich in future.

Topic of the day:- To be or not to be in the team.
After getting advice from family members, close friends decision will be made out tonight for the future. A decision that I really need to make the right choice not only thinking about myself but family always come first. Will update later in the evening.

I had a meeting with my wife and Mohamad Sufian regarding on team progress. After much consideration and as the founder of Team Singapura Everest 2015, I am still in the group till the mission completed. At least I got my own training plan and it's different from the rest.




To my Team Singapura Everest 2015, keep training and keep going. We are in PROGRESS!!!

Help to those who are in need and comes from the heart.
Never ask for anything in return always comes from sincerity.

Membantu orang-orang yang memerlukan dan datang daripada hati.
Jangan sekali-kali meminta apa-apa sebagai balasan sentiasa datang dari keikhlasan.

Tuesday 19 July 2011.


This morning I was at Macritchie Reservoir testing the blade sole on the trail. While running bum into Salina and meet two beautiful Filipino female runners in the trail.
Back to the blade issue, vibram, mountain bike and car tyre can’t be used on the blade sole as I am facing slippery in the trail especially going up and down hill. After much consideration the best sole is The North Face Rucky Chunky shoe for my 2nd blade.
Past experience the Rucky Chunky sole can last up to 8 months on the blade anyway will use it for the 2nd xtreme blade. The first blade I will be using it for the road race, maybe consider using tennis shoe sole.

I have a dream to climb Bukit Timah
I have a dream to climb Mount Kinabalu
I have a dream to climb Mount Cook
I have a dream to climb Mount Kilimanjaro
and I have a dream to climb Mount Everest in 2015
The spirit of me never says I can’t.
Majulah untuk Negara, Majulah untuk Singapura!
Today is my rest day and this morning I went to Foot and Care Centre at Tan Tock Seng Hospital to cast and fix my 2nd running blade socket and the sole. This morning my bill went up to $2800 and also meet up with Trevor to discuss matters on Everest. By next year I need to order 2 more legs and parts before heading to Kilimanjaro.
Below are the expenses as plans:-
Expenses for Everest training in 2011
Abseiling course level is 1 $64.20 at Safra Yishun
Abseiling course level is 2 $128.40 at Safra Yishun
First Aid course is $35.00 at St John Ambulance Singapore
Basic Cardiac course is $
Trip to New Zealand in November 2011 for Technical Mountaineering Course TMC cost is $6500
Equipment gear and prosthetic tools is approx $5000.00
Expenses for Everest training in 2012
2 trips to Mount Kinabalu in March and Sept 2011 cost $2000
Trip to India Manali in April 2011 cost is $4500
Equipment gear and prosthetic tools is approx $8000.00
Currently The North Face is sponsoring me on the gear.
Total expenses I am looking at is approx $120,000 from training to hike but the first concern is trips for 2011 and 2012. I hope to get more sponsors in future.

Friday 15 July 2011.

Today I am so busy doing lots of undo items such as changing the company name to SBR Global Network and I believe this name will make profit to my company and also writing my books. Anyway I got bless from my family.

Tomorrow morning I might be heading to Macritchie reservoir for the North Face Trail Run Series and hope no raining as it will effect my blade sole. Anyway there is another good news, in February 2012 I will be heading to TNF 100 in Thailand for the 25km trail run and represent TNF Singapore.

You see, yesterday I was sad and today I am happy, thanks to God for the help. Now I need to do my company website and profile statement. I better do it myself rather than asking for someone else for help and to be honest speaking money is their concern rather than helping someone who are in need. Tak ada iklas!

GU Nutrition testing session and RL weekly night run with SBR.

39th National Track and Field Championship 2011.

Journal for 39th Track and Field Championship 2011
This afternoon I was so frustrated waiting to get a cab from Yishun Ring Road to Serangoon Stadium. I waited under the sun for almost 35 mins and try to call the hot line for a cab and no taxis are available. While waiting there is a Caucasian guy who stop his car and approached me where do I want to go? I thank him so much for the concern on me but I refuse to take his offer as he is heading to Orchard Road and me to Serangoon. Anyway he thanks me and left the place. Finally I manage to get a cab.
Reaching at Serangoon Stadium the first thing I saw my picture on the banners with some other athletes at the entrance and prize giving stage. Thanks to Singapore Disability Sports Council (SDSC) Hey! Meet up with old friends and my former Coach Jacter Singh. Finally I manage to get my bib no 003 and represent for Handicap Welfare Association (HWA)
As usual did my warm up and test run around the field. Everything goes well and waited for my name to be call. While waiting I keep cheering other special athletes and at times I could not control myself and so emotion to see the spirit of never give up at these athletes. I told them, all of us is a winner and no one’s is a loser just FOCUS and do your best!
Every 30mins I keep doing my warm up and finally they call my name and I need to report at the holding room. Wah! It took me almost 5hrs to wait for my turn. HEY WAIT a minute! Category for 1500 meters and confirms I am the only T44 athlete to run on the track!!! But because of time limit I have no choice to run with 4 other school athletes. Wah! Below i8 vs. 43 years old, cool man!
I was at lane no. 8 with the other athletes. Have a short prayer and the gun shot. My first competitor was in front and I was on the second running on the slow pace and when the finale bells rang I put up my speed and run all the way and when I cross the finisher line I won the 3rd place but the first in my own category and congrats to them. I know my timing is good but let’s keep confidential. NICE!
Ladies and Gentlemen’s, 1500 meters, 1st goes to Saiful and 2nd goes to an Indian boy and now Men’s Open T44 athlete from HWA 1st goes to Md Shariff Abdullah (SBR) clap! clap! Clap! I went up there and took the medal from President of Singapore Disability Sports Council (SDSC) Mr. Frankie. Thanks to him and I slowly went back to my seat and told Sidek Nooazah now all is over and see this place again in 2012.
Lots of my friends and competitors want me to come back next year but more. I mean 100m, 200m, 400m, 1500m, javelin, shot putt and discus. Also they want me to form a relay team for the amputees so by next year we can go for the international games on running. Well! I could not promise anything but I got my other plans too.  Too early to said anything.
Firstly thanks to Singapore Disability Sports Council (SDSC) JP Morgan and other sponsors, the volunteers, my wife, friends for cheering, FB friends for wishing me and special thanks to Sidek Nooazah who company me all the way and her skins turn darker for sitting under the sun hehehe!
In the past we are failure and now we are success, keep going and never give up on hope.
Best Regards,
Singapore Blade Runner
