    Standard Chartered KL 2009


    I'll just say a few points about this run and why should every runner go for this run.

    Firstly, it is organised by Standard Chartered, which is very professional. They have everything organised for you. RFID bibs to smoothen and quicken the race time recording process, water stations in abundance and even volunteers to cheer you on!

    Secondly, stan chart has LOTS of money. So, they block off all the major roads to ensure that you have a smooth and flat run. NICE! This is like the ONLY run in KL that is flat, as far as my experience tells me.

    However, the only thing is that their goodies are too pricey. Meaning that their goodies are actually good, with loads of discounts, but will still require you to pay in order to enjoy the discount. For example, a full body scan, which my friend says will cost up to a thousand ringgit, they give it to you for about 300+. Err... Wonderful discount, I must admit, but still a bit pricey for me eh?

    However, all in all this is a good run and I would recommend EVERYONE to go experience this big event. More than 13,000 people registered you know...

    Power.

    Haha, that's nice! Standard Chartered and Octagon will be very happy to read this. Because they have tonnes of horrible complaints from everywhere else :)
