Can refer to Ender post above. A bunch of booth selling different variety gels (some are cheaper than what you can get from Shopee and retail if you know how to compare).
There is Nedao if you want to get cheap race singlets instead of ordering from Taobao.
Pang gu running is selling the new Coros pace 4 for 369

Nothing much if you looking for interesting new stuff.

Only the Dynafish booth interest me. There is one indonesian carbon plate shoes, ortuseight. Another one Voltra, think this is malaysia carbon plate shoes.

Adidas Adio Pro 4 and EVO SL only at 10% off retail, another 10 for stand chart card holders.

Gels are cheaper here.

Didn't get any freebies from any booth.

Voltra carbon plated shoe also not that cheap.. about 170-180sgd also. Quite a bit for an unproven brand tbh. Seen quite a number of Malaysian runners promoting it a few months ago

SRY has abnormal ECG reading during routine SEA pre screening. So he is not clear to represent Singpore for SEA game yet. Need further investigation.

"In a memo from the hospital seen by The Straits Times, the doctor noted that Soh’s electrocardiogram (ECG) – a test to check an individual’s heartbeat – is “abnormal, with multiple premature ventricular complexes”, adding that he is “likely to need further cardiovascular evaluation before clearance”."

dynafish xiaonian - good service from the stall folks but the booth can pass off as wet market pasar malam stall. Almost brought the sandals too :ROFLMAO:. Got quite a fair bit of aminovital stuff also.Then various misc headbands and socks.All in me think better than last year just no free bananas.
