Eco Setia 1/2 Marathon 2010

Date: 5 Jun 2010
Time: 6.30am
Venue: Eco Setia, Setia Alam
Distance: 21km, 10km, 4.5km

The route is more or less same as last year. The sky was cloudy and drizzling in the early morning. Half way running, it rain heavily. As such, runners have to soak after the rain and effected their timing.

It was well organised event with reasonable registration fees, gun-off on time, nice vest, good quality trophy, awesome medal, plenty of fruits - watermelon, orange and banana, vico, isotonic drinks, bread, cendol and tau fu fa, all you can eat, need not coupon, many lucky draw prizes too.

The only hiccup was during prizes presentation. At the beginning, the official only call the top 5 winners on stage to receive trophy, by right should be top 10. It was resolved after the organiser highlighted to them. There was also a dispute in 10km women category caused a delay and kelam kabut on the stage. MC should know how to control and calm down such situation, instead of standing there don't know what to say.

Overall it was a well organised event, definitely will come back next year.
