Run-site: Old Nambi Estate, near Rasa (beyond Batang Kali)
Travel Time: 1:10 to 1:20, depending on starting point
Date: Sunday 7th July, 2019
Registration: 1:15 – 1:45 pm
Run Starts at: 2:00 pm
Hares: Oakleyfamily and Frenchfamily
At the run, we will have cold drinks on sale, plus hot dogs (with Victoria Crest sausages).
As usual, all are welcome, including non-members (‘guests’), who can just turn up and go to our registration desk, to sign in and pay the guest fee of RM10 per kid.
It’s essential for everyone (members and guests) to sign in before the run and sign out after the run, so we know that nobody is lost in the deep, dark jungle!
Directions
As with most run-sites, it’s easy to get there if you let Waze or Google Maps help you navigate.
If you click one of these icons, it will direct you to the run-site:
But check the proposed route carefully, as it might suggest that you drive 6km along a very rough track from Batang Kali, which was never fun and is no longer safe/passable. To prevent that, simply go via Rasa Chinese Cemetary, which is here:
If you follow these instructions, you should find it easily, but we’ll have our usual bunny signs as you get close.
There are a few pot-holes in the last couple of km, but normal cars are fine as long as you take it slow.
For traditionalists, you could follow the directions below (there are also good alternatives, e.g. past Batu Caves and up the new Rawang bypass, or via the N-S highway to Bukit Beruntung):
From KL Head North on NKVE and Exit 117 for Sungei Buaya / Serendah.
