Nike City 10K Run - Race Kit

I collected my race kit this morning at 11.00 a.m., i was in and out of the collection centre in 5 minutes. There was few runners at the time and ZERO queue, they had 10 counters including 2 counters for bulk collection, all i can say is that the organization is brilliant and choosing Avenue-K as the venue for collection is another superb idea – it’s indoor, air-conditioned and near the starting point (runners may take the opportunity to recce the starting point).

The organizer should be applauded for this pre-race organising efforts, the starting / finishing point is another great idea. Located in the heart of KL, to be exact in KLCC outdoor parking lot in Jalan Binjai, which is near to the Asy’ Syakirin Mosque and will benefits Muslim runners to perform their morning prayers comfortably. I expect nothing but the best from the organiser comes race day, which i have little doubt that they will deliver. Parking wise, it’s beneficial to be the early bird for this event, i’m gonna take my bike for this run and park near the mosque as i don’t want a parking headache with the MPV.

The race-kit consist of:-

• Dry-fit Nike t.shirt (Love the materials but hate the colour) – Bib 21964
• D-Tag timing chip (Two digit number – 10)
• Race day guide
• Nike Sling bag

I’m not sure if there’s a medal finisher for this run, but Nike allocated a “finisher award” to every runners with the conditions that they completed the run and wearing the official Nike T.shirt with bib number (unfortunately you can’t wear your favourite/lucky vest). If i’m not mistaken, previous year Nike running event in Singapore, all the runners were given finishers bracelet instead of medals.

Talking about the significant of this run is to celebrates the date of 10.10.10(2010), my lucky star smiles on me as i am allocated the number 10 on the D-tag as the 10th person to register (i assume). Good luck peeps, see you on the race day.
