One of the interesting activities I attended before I return to Taiwan is the SMK Mengkuang's Annual Cross Country. Once every year, on a Friday in January, the school will hold its annual cross country at Penang's famous dam, Mengkuang Dam.

I was informed today that this year will be the last cross country being held here as Mengkuang Dam will be closed to public starting April 2010. It will be closed for expansion and is expected to be completed in 2013. I'm very lucky to be part of the cross country event this year.
The students here are divided into four sports team - indicated by the color of the sport 'houses' or team. Red, Yellow, Green and Yellow Team. Today I got to meet many new friends from the Red Team. So now I'm a supporter of Red Team.


I enjoyed the view when I was there. The sun was really bright this morning. The view was nice. I enjoyed a short motocycle ride by the big lake.
Anyway, the event ended with the Blue team being announced as the champion. Red team got third place, Green got second and Yellow got fourth. Oh well, better luck next time Red Team.
