Road 6km, sand 1.6km, Trail 2.4km
The Ultimate X-Terrain Challenge
20 August 2006
7:30am
Sentosa

No need to boost, it has not come close to the challenge that the organiser states for the last 2 years i have attend. There is no trail kind of any condition anywhere in Sentosa, 1/3 of the claim is misguided. Is the run on the sand 1.6km? Construction works going on, it is definitley shorter than that - maybe 1km ba.

What the different between last year and this year? From the organisation point of view? The starting time is much better, last year was 9 am or is it 9:30am? It was damn hot last year. The race start was delayed by 10 mins for those 5.5km folks, results those 10km was delayed as well. There are more race marshall this time round compare to last year. The sand portion is shorter(due to construction)

What the different for myself this year? There are alot of congestion running this year, at least that is how i feel. I was "block" very often on the run. I have a good chit with Burnz for the first half. I have a bad timing(i do not know why). I was taking the event causually, walk some part of the sands(as i couldnt move forward due to congestion). Feeling okay throughout the race and complete in 1h++. A good 5mins slower than last year hotter weather.

Anyway, what is over is over. Next stop, AHM.
