Padang along Lebuhraya Rose, Penang - 0.6 km

Padang (field) along Lebuhraya Rose is the first location I do my running.

It is located opposite the rear entrance of Penang Adventist Hospital.

There's a hawker center nearby.

Mostly every evening, there's be people playing football on the field. 

The other activities that also happening include school team football training, walking a dog, herding of cattle across the field for food, and occasionally golf training (although a sign board stated that golf training is prohibited on that gound).

Running is not popular here. 


The surface around the field is uneven. There are tree roots emerge along running path, and there are sunken ground that covered by grasses. Extra precaution is needed when running here. Run slow if one first try out the place. It used to have cow's dung when the cattle pass here, and dog feces too. I'm not sure of it now. I seldom visit the place nowadays.

It is a good place for the people in the neighborhood to do sports and outdoor activities. 

I love this field as it is one of the place I started to train for running.

One of my photography lover friend impressed by this old tree beside the field.
