I think is Matador racing? Not sure, i foreveralone one.

That's also why i never go NW, extreme west. Anything can happen even if you are elite level.
The traffic there too hardcore (you seen heavy vehicles drifto? )

But jialat, hope they have had heat training.
Heat index temperature over here race time then will be 38-40 deg C. (significantly warmer than SCSM)
They all just came out from Winter.

Seems like a very scenic and fun marathon to do in Indonesia. I'm considering this one.

Or maybe the Amazing Thailand Bangkok Marathon in November, then can see Kipchoge

BTW if you are ever going some Eurpoean countries for marathon tourism, be careful of pickpockets. It's probably more prevalent than even VN or something.

My FIL kena before on his trip....issue is for the tourist places of interests and subway around those places (mindful of those who enter at last minute ). And my in-laws are indon, and so he's considered to be pretty careful / observant compared to say us SGreans (even take ferry they always have an eye on their luggages on the rack, scared others take etc)....issue is also that we stick out as sore thumbs over there. Cant even blend in even if we dressed locally coz of our race.
Best also to keep passport well away from wallets / phones (iphones esp) and stuff. V v headache if lost. And im not sure what limitations that a pic of the passport has in whatever countries.

Surprise surprise..........the previously JP only release S4+ YOGIRI got brought in by Asics Singapore but at an obscenely marked up price.

Official JP retail price is JP¥ 22,000 but probably can find for 20k in shops, which translate to around SGD$180. Somehow after making the way to our shores can become $320.......sigh.........really sucks to be a runner in SG.

I paid 20000 yen for mine from Asics Ginza store. All tourists get automatic 10% off listed price because tax free.

I used this during Tokyo Marathon. I enjoyed running with it. Not as plush as Novablast 5 obviously but easier to run with it as the shoe will rock forward with each landing.
