Running Spot in Melaka: Bukit Serindit Recreational Park

I recently spent a weekend at Melaka and found from friends on this good place for running.
It situated adjacent to Stadium Tun Fatimah and in fact the name as become synonym to this place.

Below are the view from the goggle map.

The park has a combination of tar road (flat) and hilly path. It's more convenience to run on the tar road that include a to and fro. It has designated sign board to suggest the route to go one 2.2 km loop. It's very tricky at one turn that need to run out of road into trail and I only success to figure out on my 5th or 6th try, still I only manage to track 2.1 km.

Sign that showed suggested loop for 2.2 km and estimation for calories burn each loop
"Congratulation", it says, "You have reach 1.0km and walk 1600 steps"
2.0 km point or 3200 steps
There are other activities going on at this place including aerobic, basket ball and hockey. One can run here all day but there are some area without enough lighting when it's dark. It's better run on tar road and avoid the garden area as there are some uncovered drain along the way. Be aware also the tree roots on the trail that tripped me even though I'm aware of them.
