Malaysia Marathon 2026

Simply wanted to share my 10K results from joining Malaysia Marathon 2026! 🏃🏻‍♀️✨ Probably my best result across all my 10K runs so far, considering I really don’t like running. I usually join just for the vibes and to have fun with my friends. But yesterday, I pushed myself a little more because the last time I ran with the same group of friends, I literally started playing on my phone and texting them “where are you guys?” while they were running ahead of me. 😂 This time, Derek told me to at least improve by 10 minutes and try to finish 10K in 1 hour 20 minutes.
