After helping out with 4 sessions of run clinics for Nike, the race day finally came. Everyone don on this year’s race tee to the starting line eagerly waiting to start running.
Thanks to Alex, we were given the priority access to be at the starting line ahead of everyone else at the starting pen. If you look at the picture below, it’s pretty interesting how everyone else behind the pen looking at us taking group pic ahead of them. LOL!
The weather was nice, and it’s only 10km. A few of us pacers were starting out together. Gary shoot off ahead of us as this is the only race for him around this time. I on the other hand, knowingly that there’s Singapore marathon the following week, just wanted to take it slow. Chiat, Winnie and I were running at the same pace throughout, while Chi Ming had Stomach stitch problem and back off from our pace. Sophie was running and encouraging her hubby, Jeremy, for it was his first race.
I was part pacing and pushing Winnie through out the race as she haven’t been running in a race for very long. …. and guess who’s the photographer??? …. Chiat, of course!
Nothing much to talk about, as it’s only a 10km run. I would said it’s really well organised, and am glad that they capped the number of participants despite a lot of dissatisfaction over how fast the registration has reach full capacity and have to take off the registration online.
We were also given the access to the Nike+ tent, with all meals provided. We indulged in the good nasi lemak!
One last shot together with the pacers when everyone comes back from the race!
Can’t wait for next year’s Nike race!
