Tom Dick & Harry Mou Man Tai Run

           I participated in my first organized run since public school this past Sunday. It was the Tom Dick & Harry Mou Man Tai Run. It was a 5k run with free flow of beer afterwards. There were over 600 participants and it was a really awesome event. For RM 30 you get a dry fit t-shirt, 5k run and free flow beer after the run. I stayed for about 2 ½ hours after. Whether you’re a runner or not, you should come out next year. Wait, don’t come out! More beer for me!

      You gotta support the organizers of such a great event. I arrived about an hour early, so I bought a pitcher of Carlsberg before the race. Drinking beer before a run is something you should never do.

      The race begins. I got off to a slow start, but I picked it up. I'm pretty happy with how well I placed considering I was feeling like hell the whole time due to the pre-race brewskis.

      The best part of the race. Sharing war stories over unlimited Carlsbergs. Being the only large group of foreigners in the race, the photographers and video crewed loved us. I suspect we'll be in some TDH promotions this coming year. That's the price you gotta pay for having such a great time I guess. I'll be there next year, but no pre-race beers.
