220510 100Plus PAssion Run

This is a new 25km route held in the evening. Previously it was 15km in the morning.
I enjoyed it. I don’t understand why people would sign up and participate and complain so much about the start time, the shuttle bus, the running vest size and the finisher’s tee shirt size, etc. We have a big bunch of whiners and complainants in the running community.

A group of friends met in the morning to collect our adidas running top, shorts, blinking light and socks for a photo shoot. then, it was a mad rush back home and mad rush to Stadium MRT station to catch the shuttle bus to the start point. We had to walk a little. I jogged. I managed to get to the start point in time to chit chat with the other runners, among them, Mohan, Hazel, Jenap, Eliza and Mr Soon Ah Chai. I was worried about my partner in the Team Duo 50km and I kept looking out for him but couldn’t see him. (afternote: I met him at the Vertical Marathon the next day and he said he ran. Phew! I get my certificate complete with a completion time.)

The night before, I attended the briefing for Sundown Marathon. I shouldn’t have stayed till so late. I forgot I left my keys in the gym and I panic after I realised it. Luckily at 1.30am there were two men polishing the floor in the gym. The security guards as always would not do anything. However, they were better than those at my office. It is a freaking nightmare at the office previously.

The early bird signed up is $78 for a team of 2. It wasn’t very easy collecting the $39 from my partner and I quite hated it. We could never arranged for a convenient time or day. Messages were answered with ok but never say when and where. Even after the time and venue were confirmed, I had to go to him because it was raining. I’m so water proofed that wouldn’t get wet, is it?
