When : 02 Dec 2012, 0500 am Where : Start - Orchard Road, End - Padang (route through East Coast Park) Weather : Cloudy This is one of the best marathon event in 2012.  Awesome crowd, lots of hype, excitement, well-organised race. Pre-race: There was a launch event held at Raffles Place where the early birds get to receive a goodie bag and a chance for the lucky draw. I wasn't there but I heard many people turned up. On the race pack collection day: At the Singapore Expo Hall. The queue was long,  there were booths selling sports' products and booths to sign up for other race events like the Sundown Marathon, 2XU Compression run etc. Inside the race pack - Race information - Asics singlet - One Nature Valley Granola bar - Small Tiger Balm sample  On the race day: It was full of excitement. Lots of cheers from supporters - both locals and foreigners.  Encouragements from volunteers and passer-bys. Many water stations, 2 stations w
