i'm sorry to hear about your cert. having been involved in the cert production LAST YEAR, i know that this is a very very difficult task to accomplish, even without the photo. the position/fonts have to be at the correct place. the timings over the various categories have to be verified many times. it's easy to forget that PACM is just a club relying on volunteers where the key tasks are run by volunteers who most of the time are not paid a single cent. if i got the facts right, this year's race had only 1 main photographer for the male category and 1 for the female category. if the photographers are slow at any point, either waiting for the flash or the shutter, the opportunity is lost to capture the shot. sometimes, it could be more than that eg. batteries, sudden/unanticipated distraction, official blocking the line...the possibilities are many. i'm not trying to justify the ommission of the photos as i understand that runners are naturally upset if there's no photo but hopefully the runners can also understand that the club has tried it's best and will definitely continue to do so to improve aspects of organization. it's actually amazing that they're able to provide the various positions given the fact that we don't have timing chips. many of the volunteers also hold multiple responsibilities on race day. it was also quite clear that the "photo-on-cert" concept is offered on a best effort basis and since this is only the first time this service has been tried out, some shortcomings should be anticipated.

these difficulties are often not disclosed to members or the public and one has to have volunteered before to appreciate the effort the volunteers and club had put in. which is why i've always always encouraged club members to help out sometimes rather than just participate for 2 simple objectives: 1) to give back to the sport, 2) to gain experience and appreciate the challenge of managing an event. i have volunteered my services and i know.

Aiya, Dr. Why u explained so much to him? PM1 only collects medals. For him, cert is good-to-hv but not important one. Dia manja sangatlah.

Sorry to hear about the cert bro. Just called back home to check on my cert, fortunately my photo is printed, but the cert has been folded terribly, thanks to the postman! And, I noticed there was a runner with similar name as mine in the junior veteran category and they totally mix up my overall position with his, sigh.......
