Forever 28~

Yeah, I have collected my Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2009 (SCKLM) race pack yesterday. When I opened the race pack, it was just fulled of disappointment. Let me tell you one-by-one about incidents during the race pack collection day, even though I was not there :p

For your information, a total of 12,500 of people registered to this SCKLM. During the collection day, the computer system was down due to the heavy pour. Then, everything became so unorganized. I heard some people queued up more than two hours under the hot sun just to collect the race pack. Some runner couldn’t get their bibs, I am one of them. I suppose to run in 0294 but they couldn’t find my bibs, so I have to take 0293. I tell you, if someone happens to be champion and get the wrong bib number, I can imagine the mess during the verification process.

Then, I requested size ‘M‘ for my vest. OMG, the size is ridiculously small for a man. It is really tight and look awful when I am wearing it! Keone double confirm with the person in charge for the size, they said yes, that is for man’s M!

There are a lot of flyers inside and other promotional pamphlets from Standard Chartered. I can say, nothing inside is useful except vest and bibs. Unlike other Marathon which will provide relevant sample to the runners. This Standard Charted put mortgage flyer, credit card application form in the race pack. I just, speechless!

This is my first 10 KM run in my entire life. I truly disappointed with Standard Chartered as the event organizer, from the process to the race pack.

Update:

Now I confirmed the vest that I got is for FEMALE! They are IDIOT, how can they make a fault confirmation to the public! Where can I complaint about this? I want to exchange my vest!
