Statement from Otak-Kong

As the organiser of the Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2009, we at Octagon acknowledge all comments and feedback received about the management of the Marathon on 28 June.

We regret that some runners faced water shortage during the run. We had 50,000 litres of water and isotonic drinks, with water stations located every 2.5kms along the route but we acknowledge that the distribution of water was not ideal. We apologise once again for this.

As for the distance markers, we stress that such indicators were placed at every kilometre along the route. On the advice of the technical committee, it was decided that the markers would only be for the Full Marathon which is the practice of all international marathons around the world. However we take note of your input in this area for future implementation.

We also acknowledge that nearly half of the participants in the 5km run took a wrong turn and ended up running a shorter route. Together with our partners, MAAU and FTAAA, we are looking into how this could have happened.

We have also received feedback regarding the shortage of Finisher’s Medal for the Full Marathon. We have noted this and have compiled a list of those who have yet to receive a medal. We will notify them immediately about the collection of their medals accordingly. The shortage of medals came about as a result of several individuals collecting more than one medal.

Overall, the race was well received and many have indicated that they would participate next year. We aim to provide a better experience in 2010, with your feedback being instrumental to that.

Thank you.

Sorry to all my fan for my mission fail, seem like everyone so kan chong to know how I did. Sms keep coming in, paiseh nia sob.. sob.. I'm juz 5 mins and 42 sec away off target. I was hoping this will be last last marathon liao if I can achieve sub 3'30, that mean I hv to come back again next year for revenge, provided Otak-Kong organise it nicely lah. Cinya disappointed wit them.

Der Worst Collection Bib Ever in My Life

Never in my life make a u-turn after seeing der queue was so unbelievable long n worst not moving at all bcoz of power failure. Even no power failure, oso not moving at all. I was there at 1pm, saw Kei Ming oredi amkan waited more than 1 hr liao. He oso decide to go back wit me. Imagine I hv to collect for my wife bib 10km, then I hv to queue all over again after I long queue at 42km. Damn!! Amkan!

We will be there again after I finish my work at 7pm, hopefully der queue are not that long liao.

Otagon, pls speed up der work!!

Below message is from Loke :

Very disappointed with the organisers. FTAAA must be the happiest folks in town to see the chaos since the show was taken way from them.

Supposed to collect during lunch but went later because of rain. Arrived at 1:45 and it took me more than 80 mins to collect bib for FM category. Not many people in queue for FM but the problem is there are only 3 counters. Problem is compounded by people who collect more than 6 bibs (someone 3 positions ahead of me even collected for 21 pax). Organisers should have separate queue for bulk collection as this is the main cause of delaying those eho collect a few bibs. Queue is worse for HM and 10k. Two days is definitely not enough for bib collection. I cannot the imagine the situation tomorrow.

Please note however that if you're planning to park in the Dataran Merdeka underground you can only park before 4.30am and leave after 11.30am.

For Daya Bumi, you must park before 6.00am and can only leave after 11.00am.

For Padang Merbuk, you can park and leave anytime.You can also park at other venues, ex. Lake Gardens, but they are further away than the three cited above.
