SCKLM 2010, a well organized event. Drink stations are sufficient enough, water every 2km, isotonic drink every 4km, few sponge station along the route for full and half marathon, distance marker every km. Full and half marathon route not clash with 10km and fun run route, avoid congestion for all serious runners.


I was follow closely by a lady runner behind me since 5km onwards, good weather on the race day, and also pacing / pushing by Peter, I manage reached completed first 16km within 1:19++

My aim to completed another AIMS certified half marathon with sub 1:45 realised during this race, although not my PB compare with SCSM 2009, and also failed to achieved 1:40 target set by Dan Low.

Glad that I manage to completed my 30th half marathon in my entire running life with sub 1:45...
