Guess His Age

Some of you may know I don't spend time on FB as much as blogging. But, today was different. I am yet to think what kind of race report I want to write, so I spent some of my free times on FB (somehow I feel weird myself as I don't normally do FB). As I was looking around, I saw a photo of a friend (started to know him as a reader of this crappy blog). He's a triathlete and has just completed IM Langkawi last February. Last Sunday he clocked his PB in KL Marathon with an awesome timing of sub 4hr15min. It was his fifth marathon, and he worked hard for it.

Come on guys, put your guess on his age.
This will be interesting.

I don't even know his real age, but I know he has the same birth date (different year lah) as mine. At a first glance, don't you think he looks like a 23 years old?

That's what being actively involved in sports do to your body, in a way or another. It makes you look younger than your real age, as a side bonus of keeping your body healthy.

P/s: Paul, I hope you don't mind I put your photo here. But really, what's your age eh? Email me ok! hihi

June Malik said...

definitely looking younger than his age, the real one 38-42? if he shares, tell us :)

plee said...

rambut pendek- malas nak sikat, cepat kering.

pakai compression top so that skin folds don't flap around when running.

Sunglasses- hide the bags and lines

Diket said...

Since you've said he looks younger than his age, that would 39, same like me. Lol.

And the guy behind him, he's probably much older than Paul. But the chick, she's cool :D

Paul got nice tri vest. Can ask Paul where he bought it also ke bro? :)

IJAM said...

Unknown said...

Jap aku kira: Campur semua no kat atas, divide by 6, minus 12, plus 68, I think 43.65?

kookykash said...

hehehe…paul jadi model. Congrats paul!! I mean on the timing. Train me for a sub 5, can?

EnAikAY said...

Ok Yim. You win!
(did you look up for his info on FB?)

Anyway, i didn't promise any prize, did i? Go get it from Paul. I'm sure he's still smiling. Hehehe..

Yes folks, that guy in the photo is turning 47 years old this year.

Unbelievable, isn't it?

P/s: Paul, pls allow me to follow behind u during PD triathlon OK! :)

Yimster said...

lol nah, am not sure if his age is even shown on his FB.

Unbelievable indeed.

ziff71 said...

Unbelievable!

June Malik said...

i thot younger than me, sama lah pulak, yikes!!

EnAikAY said...

Yim,
We should ask Paul whether he eats banana or karipap. You might change your mind. hihihhi.

Ziff,
Isn't it?

June,
Eh, you clicked another marathon race is it? I thought "yikes" is only linked to doing a marathon?

Julin Julai said...

cih..baru nak teka.
wa..when I grow up I want to look young like that too

June Malik said...

Nik , with the grand finishing u guys gave me, how can I not? err .. hmm, I think I did a Yikes LOL .. cant remember which one *sheepish smile*

Khairul said...

Mak ai. 47? I'll be happy to look like that 14 years from now. And hang out with college gals :)

Che said...

really? mmg nampak muda, tak sangka betul. i wanna keep running even im at his age later :P

plee said...

Hi everyone! Thanx! You all too nice lah! Close up can see all the age lines on my skin! I am still too new at these endurance thing to give advice ( 2yrs).. in fact I have followed and learnt a lot from some of you on yr journey(Kash, Nik)...

furthermore all of you looking very good... keep moving forward!!

Most important rule for me is to enjoy the moment and then see how it goes....

I used to be a little bit heavy and could not run beyond 5k... but slowly, everybody can do it!

Some of those who took away my excuse and fear of these activities are 72yr old Yee Tze Mun,the late Ngae(did his sub 4 marathon at53)Dr Tan Tah Ming and Cikgu Adnan(Ultrarunners) Team Hoyt(youtube)etc...and fellow runners like yourselves!

Nik ...wow what unexpected exposure! By the way I believe the sub 4.15-4.30 is already within yr reach. You can do it...


Cheers and catch you all in a race soon!

@Diket

I bought the tri top from RoadID.com It was on clearance sale.
The pants SLS3) from Imcyclist.com in Damansara Utama
Tried posting a coment on yr blog but tak jadi...Well Done!

Abd Ghani said...

Hahaha...you all should see how he looked like before triathlon and before tennis.

When Paul sets his mind in doing something, you can bet he's gonna go and research all he can abt it.

EnAikAY said...

Thanks for the great closing comment Paul.
You should start up your own blog lah Paul, if you haven't. Many others would love to know how you train and your racing experience.

Brader Abg Ghani and KA,
Thanks for dropping by! :)
