1st 500

I tried to register online for the SCSM 09 just after midnight but the system could not be accessed. I then made a decision that I will be 1 of the typical kiasu singaporean and be early at Raffles Place Park where the launch of the event will take place and sign up on the spot. Moreover, I was curious what the goodie bag will be like.

Had an early breakfast and then I took the train to Raffles Place. Saw an ex colleague who was on her Professional Development Leave on her way to her course. Chatted along the way and the journey seemed so much faster compared to travelling alone. I estimated that I might be 1 of the 1st 60 in the queue since I was there about an hour prior to the start. Had a conversation with 2 mothers who were also in the queue signing up for the women's 10k. They just picked up running recently and are incidentally attending the Shape Run and GE womens.

Overall the process was quite fast and I also signed up to be a charity runner. There were 3 to choose from and being in the primary education line, i decided that the Rainbow Centre Yishun Park School for autistic and multiple disabilities children will be my choice.

I will post further details on the link to the website online so anyone can make donations. Any amount is fine. What matters most is that of giving willingly and sacrificially.
