Personal Best for Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore 2013


This is my Personal Best (PB) for my marathon. This is attributed to the good organisation and good weather that day.

Marina Bay Area Run on 10 Dec 11


Lucas, Ian, Vincent and I went for a leisure run around marina bay area this morning. Originally, this was supposed to be a fun run around the Marina Bay Reservoir (3.2km) but we ended up running to the Fort Canning Service Reservoir instead (~7km). Thought the entire run, we visited several places that we have never 'run' to before (i.e. Marina Bay Sands, Helix Bridge, Marina Float, Esplanade, Merlion, Parliament House, Registry of Marriage, Fort Canning & Clark Quay). It was indeed a scenic and enjoyable run. :)

With less than 9hours before the run, have you done your water parade and equipment check?

May we cross our path tomorrow:D

Additional Points to Note for SCMS 2011 Full Marathon

Besides those points that the organisers have provided in their website, you might want to consider the following.

1. For the GPS Watch users, you might lose your signal when entering the Fort Canning Tunnel is an underground tunnel.

2. Marina Coastal Expressway is where you will hit the WALL and there is no shelter for the entire  stretch of approximately 4km... that means that you will be 'sun-tanning' for the entire stretch, do be mentally prepared.

3. Almost to the end of the race, there is a 1km upslope (after the Marina Bay Sands), do be mentally prepared.



Race Pack Collection for Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore (SCMS) 2011

Unlike previous years of race pack collection 1 week before the event at Singapore Expo, the race pack collection was scheduled on the same week of the race day at Singapore Expo.

I went to collect my race pack on 2 Dec (Fri) 7-9pm. Collection Booths were well organised and I managed to get my race pack seamlessly.

Well, some photos I took during the race pack collections last night :)
