Make a Left turn into a short stretch of dirt road leading to an unfinished warehouse. Park snugly so more of us can park under shelter. Same runsite as " St George's" day run and "Gawai" run earlier this year.

Alternative (longer but can be faster): Take NS Expressway to Bukit Beruntung exit. After toll, turn right at T junction, drive to Sungai Choh. Turn left at traffic light on old trunk road to Ipoh. At Km 160 follow other directions as above.

There will be 2 run lengths. There will be a NORMAL Run and a LONG run. The NORMAL run will follow normal PH3 paper at the beginning and then it will change to TRIANGULAR paper. It will later join back the normal PH3 paper. The LONG run will follow PH3 paper all the way.
