Nike Human Race (Singapore)10km 2009

Woke up at 4am.......had arranged to with Insane CM to run down 13km to Nike Human Race.......Sat supposed to be LSD day but this event on sat this year so decided to carry with LSD....

Start at 5.15am....we met many participant with the Red and Loud event Tee waiting for transport along the way....feel like asking them to join in the run down....maybe like pipe piper...oneby one follow and end up a big crowd when we reached the startpoint....daydreaming...

The last 3km of the run down actually covered the last 3km of the run ...we were running and suddenly a Beep sounded....then we realised our D-tag went over one of timing checkpoint....OOoops......we reached a waterpoint at after 8km mark......the volunteers are all staring at us thinking why we are running already.....and a young cute boy actually offered 100plus to us.....

We reached just in time to squeeze into the first wave...after 25min of rest from the end of the 13km..the gun fired.....the band at the startpoint is irritating.....

I tried measuring the route using online tools and the distance seems very accurate....the distance markers are good as well......the whole route has 4 waterpoints and they are well filled with ice mountain and 100 plus......I take my time and completed the 10km within 70min.......lots of banana and water at the end point..saw ice-cream also

This year finisher wrist band is much much better than last year cheapo one.....got a nice little box to contain it

Rubbery like the sports band and nice orange colour.....

Nice............

Very impressed that when I reached home.....the results are up online......

another event The North Face 100 crash with this run....so many good experienced hardcore did not come for this........only see a lot of young boys and girls...

I would say a well organised event......I will come back again next year
