Departed just after 7 AM.
It seems a considerable amount of rain fell last night. There were puddles like ponds all over the road.
There were a lot of cars parked along the roads around the Chinese cemetery. Was it a day for visiting graves, like the O-higan in Japan?
It's a mountainous area, but there weren't any particularly steep climbs.
Because it was Sunday, there were quite a few groups of road cyclists.
They waved and called out to me as we passed each other.
I ran past Lion Hill, a mountain that resembles Mount Fuji. Its height is about 310-365 meters.
Looking closely at the abandoned buildings, I noticed a troop of monkeys living there!
I see monkey communities everywhere, but there must be about 100 of them here.
Today, the traffic was light, and I enjoyed a pleasant run.
Luckily, it was mostly cloudy, so I didn't feel the heat too much.
Usually, I'd be drenched in sweat, splashing water on my head and body while running, but today it wasn't necessary.
Routes like this, where I can feel close to nature, are great because I never get bored while running.
I took two breaks at bus stops.
I arrived in Kuala Kangsar and killed time by enjoying ice cream and canned coffee at a convenience store near the hotel.
I arrived at the hotel around 1:30 PM.
Although check-in was supposed to be at 2 PM, they let me check in early.
A relaxed, leisurely pace that left my mind and body at ease.
About half the distance I usually run. A journey and a life without rushing is truly wonderful.
*Today's distance: 23.5 km
*Total distance from Changi International Airport: 630.7 km
