IMM 2010 and Putrajaya 70.3

Lyn from the Malaysia Ironman office has just informed me (Tuesday, 11.50 am and again on Wednesday 3.50 pm) that:

  • IMM 2010 is on at Langkawi. Registration can be done on-line now. The early bird entry fee will be fixed later.

  • Putrajaya 70.3 is also on (26 July 2009), except the web-site is not ready. Entry fee for Malaysians is RM500.

Already signed up

thats the cheap rate

so Malaysians get a special price of RM500, while the rest of the world has to pay USD200... hhmmm...

Price for a 70.3 event is almost the same as an IM... Gosh!

Hope the race quality will improve...

:P

Yes its expensive Keat.
One week after is Desaru 1/2 IM

If that's the price for IM 70.3, I've got a feeling the price for IM Langkawi will increase as well.

Kev,
The early bird for IM LGKW past 2 years was RM500. Hopefully it will not change.
I just called Lyn again and she confirms IMM 09 is at LGKW.
Putrajaya 70.3 is on 26 Jul, one week b4 Desaru.

So the IM LGKW 2010 early bird fee of USD 300 can ignore first? USD ex rate very high now! USD300 translates to RM1100plus. RM 500 much more affordable.

oh wow! ok sir, now i need to convince 'my abang' to let me register for this.

i mean, for real

run jaja run!

Jaja,

If u call me "Sir", you must also be willing to do any number of push ups at the whim of the Senior. Your Abang Sir can confirm this.

yipwt said...

wow..same price as IM langkawi..oh well...

sofiantriathlete said...

Hey Yip, thousand apologies. I only recently discovered your blog. You are the most incredible runner. Keep it up

500 for 70.3...wow...how come i got a feeling that 2010 IM will be at least 700?????

TriStupe said...

OP Sofian - good advice there to Jaja.
:)

But her Abang Sir is also OBS DG...i think it will be more than pushups!

Stupe:
RM500 for 70.3, I think because short notice. RM700 for IMM still worth it. The IMM 09 race was very well done (aid stations very good).
TSB also another one, simply calling Sir without realising the push ups he may have to do.
