Keke. Thanks for e info on cut off time. Shld be 'easier' to meet cut off time due to e cooler weather at night. Did e 1st edition of sundown marathon back then and it was a disaster to me. Ran past ecp and e sight of e camping tent and the dimmed lights made me so sleepy and i was literally sleep-running. @stalky79 how do u know ur 'official' race time? They are able to check for u or agar agar? @kohpapa thanks for e summary ah - information overload this year cos walao.. kids run on fri, fm on sat, and my 11 yo kid who cannot qualify for kids run may have to 'upgrade' to 5km. So i have to be 'active' mode for 3 consecutive days. Anyone know if it is 'easy' to smuggle into a 5km run? Is there security to chk ur bib to enter into 5km run? I dun wanna e medal bt just wanna to accompany my boy (but dun wanna to pay for my reg fee)

any cut off time for fm? did not find e info at website. anyone doing medal engraving? (for timing). it is so troublesome to do it on site aft e run..

Yah, maybe my face jin smelly during e run esp e sunny weather is making me very moody. i am e type who siam e sun whenever possible. i carry an umbrella to shade me frm e sun during lunchtime etc. kohpapa, it could be a blessing that u are at e last pen. you became e voice of 'e-not-so-fast-runner-bt-wanna-do-marathon' it takes more mental strength to complete e run at e last pen due to e brutal sun + most of e runners ard u are walking + nt enuff supplies (water, banana, gels) + runners ahead of u were doing a u turn i remembered there was one yr whereby there were bo bananas at all. that was epic. e struggle is very real.

kohpapa, how did u manage to get runners talk to you? i was talking to myself during e run (ie: 'walao no shade' , 'so hottt') but managed to chit-chat with 2 runners who smiled back at me. back to e cut-off point, i remembered posting in fb abt it. SCM replied e 7hrs cut off is based on individual flag off time. Lucky i was 5 mins away from cut off time. I am nt a fast runner lo.

Indeed, the toilet queue was shorter closer to 4am. But it became longer thereafter. I wish they could put back e 'motivational phrases' at the distance marker. It helps abit more than e cut-off timing. Post race village - For me, i just wanna to find a shady spot to rest my tired legs. I hope organizer can prepare a decent tent just for runners to rest and recharge instead of looking ard for a suitable spot.

It will be better if they can highlight e cut off time few kms ahead - so runners can bia for it. Lucky for me, i wrote it on my arm to remind myself. But i am surprised they will sweep them away (cos i thought it is based on individual flag off time).

Am i the only one who feels that there is too much walking required aft e finishing point. I need to make a loop out to e mrt station. I prefer e finishing pt at padang.
