teatree Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 3 hours ago, MikeC said: If yellow ribbon is about integrating back into society, shouldn't starting point be Changi Prison and finish point be OUTSIDE Changi Prison, lol Their motto is: "Road to Acceptance". That probably explains the public has to end the race inside the prison compound, and to form a human yellow ribbon in the big field.

Will most likely be doing the Montreal marathon next year and am considering the KL, Kota Kinabalu, Jakarta and BKK ones as well.

Get a music player instead. With an arm or waistband, is almost hands free running. You may stuff your keys/cards/cash etc in too. I dislike going rounds too. At least a round of bedok reservoir is 4.3km. I hate stadiums (400m), like endless round to me. But the impact on your knees are so much better on track than others.

Hated the bottlenecks though where they narrowed the running path as it was next to the road. Next year will train for 21 km but find it strange that so many people were walking for 21 km, think they should just sign up for 10 km. It was indeed a good run. The hydration points are good and sufficient. Walking? I did walk a few times, chinese saying "lau hong" already. No phone with me, so not catching pokemon. Didn't play that game anyway. 10 hours ago, PaterTenebrarum said: Thanks Thorzguy * blush * I did the 21 Army Half marathon. Aimed to complete 21km at 2 h or below. But didnt today. 2h 2 mins. Darn.

Am sure you will still be doing more runs (than I do) - you will definitely hit below 2hrs! 2 hours ago, MikeC said: True, there was a bottleneck at the point where the 21 km runners meet the 10 km runners, then worsened by the narrowing of lanes later on. Guess it kills the running momentum of many runners and difficult to get momentum back again. Btw what is the time limit to get finisher-T for 21 km run? Or until event ends, which would be around 10 am? Was there a bottleneck? The only weird thing I encounter was some NS (active) boys.. run run run... then looking at their phones (phones either on waist or armbands).... then suddenly they veered off course (cannot be pee cos is like open field). I interpret that as Pokemon! Lol. There is no time limit to the finisher tee. Organisers goes by cut off time, which is 4hrs for 21km.

thorzguy Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 15 hours ago, MikeC said: I was doing 10 km run and at the point where the 21 km runners and 10 km runners meet, a continuous stream of 21 km participants walk in, hence causing slight bottleneck at first though not that bad cause they widened that part of the path slightly to accommodate both groups. Then slightly further down, there was a water point where they narrowed the lanes again with barricades, worsening the bottleneck. Not sure why they narrowed the lanes at the water point - thought they should have widened it so as to accommodate those who wish to stop to drink and allow others to pass by? It maybe due to the (limited) lanes closure? I didn't pay too much attention. I usually grab a cup, do a brisk walk while sipping, then throw the cup into the trash bag or bin, then continue. Walking or slower runners are fine. Just keep to the left please. I have met some runners, walking but somehow in the middle of the lane... I usually keep so left that I walk on the yellow lines; can walk in peace too. I did the ST Run 2014. It was their first time doing a half marathon (me too)...and from there on I learn - The flag off time is very important. The 21km started something like 5.30am? The 10km flag off was an hour later. I tell you, towards Tanjong Rhu area where the route and runners merged, can die! All cluster fxxk together!! Furthermore, people came with selfie stick - selfie, wefie, groupfie... Faint...
