Exactly a month ago on 18/11/2020, I carved my name, together with my sponsor TNB @tenaga_nasional and Malaysia Towerrunning Association @mastowerrunning into the Guinness World Records.

This morning, on 18/12/2020, I got invited by @speedster.coaching to witness the "Break The Record" Malaysia Track Cycling National Record Attempts For Individual Pursuit at National Velodrome.

I knew how it feel to be the contender attempting the record and although there were none of them breaking the National Record, but I knew that they will come back stronger on the next one.

I fall short of achieving a much greater height on my record breaking moment last month, and two weeks before that attempt, I clocked a 1.371km in an hour.

I was looking forward to achieve an even greater height on that night (a 1.5km at least) but things happened.

To be honest, I was so disappointed after that although I broke the previous record. But I realized that all the planning, hardwork done by me and Mr. Ravinder @ravin1618 (my mentor and Vice President of Malaysia Towerrunning Association) on organising the official attempt from the start till that night was already an achievement. Writing out the sponsorship proposal, sending to so many parties, got rejected and got accepted, meeting them up to a few rounds, sharing and presenting the idea, applying the permit from police station, getting all the paperwork, and training at the hotel staircase after all these.

There were so many obstacles along the way, and we glad we made it through.

Also not to forget to mention all the volunteers, family support, and sponsors like @tenaga_nasional @allianzmalaysia @kbsmalaysia potatoes US, @isnmalaysia @fskualalumpur @yakultmalaysia @bauerfeindsportsmalaysia @blackrollmalaysia covering the cost of this event!

And we would like to appreciate the supports from all media especially @bernamaofficial @thestaronline @rtm_malaysia @beritartm @kosmo_online @sinchewdaily on featuring our news about it!

Last but not least, kudos to the @speedster.coaching and his team on achieving at least their Personal Best!
