The Marina 21k race last night was terrible.
1. No marshallers at the shuttle bus pickup/dropoff points. We
were all walking around blindly trying to figure out where to take
the shuttle bus and where the starting point was.
2. The race name is false - only the start/end point was at
Marina Bay Gardens in the East - the rest of it was at Tanjong
Rhu.
3. Stupid race route - most of the way, there was only one lane
for the runners. At some points, the same lane had to be shared for
both the outgoing and incoming runners!
4. I thought the race would start at 7.30 pm for everyone. It
was only when I got there when I learnt that there would be
multiple waves of runners, and that I was in the 7.50pm wave.
WTF.
5. According to my GPS, I ran over 22 clicks instead of 21.1 km.
Race course recce PHAIL.
6. The stupid baggage handlers misplaced my luggage and it took
them over ten minutes to find it. KNN.
