Submitted my 2XU timing for HM Standchart Pen A but was rejected.

Have to start from Pen B instead.. will be an uphill battle to fight through the crowd to get to my race pace

All athletes who provide proof of having completed a World Athletics or National Federation-sanctioned half marathon race within the qualifying window period, with a time of 1hr 45mins 00sec, or less, will remain in Pen A. Those who do not meet this requirement will be allocated to the next available pen.

No idea what is considered national federation-sanctioned.

Speedy recovery. It is down time like this that really hit hard on the fitness you have gained over time.

His weekly mileage is more than good enough for full marathon.

for Singapore, National Federation should be SA sanctioned races. Other than SCSM, which is WA sanctioned, I don't think there's another SA sanctioned HM here. 10km or 5km have a few for their athletes meets.

2XU, for the last two year hoohaa for their shorten distance, make sense why SCSM insist on sanctioned race as proof. So does Boston Qualifying. Make sure is a WA sanctioned race, or else waste money.

I decided against it. For one,my training currently not ideal for marathon and don’t want to bonk on actual day.

Just received WhatsApp msg from courier that mine have arrived. Later will take it out for a negative split run(5.30,5.15,5,4.45,4.30)

Haha but training wise,not intended for full marathon. Got to break my sub 40 10k and sub 90 HM first in order for me to consider preparing for a full marathon.

But Pen A and Pen B not much diff la. I started 2023 SCSM HM at Pen C and find it ok and that was with the marathon people as well.

Most people will f it up for the first 2km aka going too fast for their own good. I used to do that but over time,I tone down a lot already haha

 

[WussRedXLi]

I think 2nd time sub 3 for him

 

[Ender]

SCSM runners, race guide is out. Check the refueling station, 13.3km , 22.3km and 34.1km. Looks like this year gel is Saurus Aminosaurus. 25g carbs...
Can carry 3 less gel if this brands suits you. I might get a couple to test my stomach tolerance .
