Mom was happy. #kyxklang #pandamaran #klangfood

    Got a PR at the inaugural Subang Jaya half maratho Got a PR at the inaugural Subang Jaya half marathon, aimed for 1:49 in my Garmin and somehow finished just a second or three ahead of target. Still managed to finish top 10%, ok laaa. Didn't realize Subang to be so damn hilly until running it... 156m elevation gain. Made a couple new friends in Daniel and Jade too. #running #kyxrunning #halfmarathon #subangjayahalfmarathon2025
