2019 has been quite a journey and now it's almost 2020. I've left so many things on my wish list unattended. I forgot how fun it was to live and do what I wanted to do. There's a lot of reason behind it but let's just keep it there for the moment. Haven't been running for a while and I decided to take a step forward and went out for another run again. For a start, I choose the 5km Ultron Healthy Run 2019. Well it's more to a fun run. I had so much fun except for a number of unfortunate event. But all in all it end well. Alhamdulillah.
This is actually my very first time joining a run by Ultron and it is so different. I couldn't remember when was the last time I did too since it has been too long. Years I think. I don't really have much reason to say on this post but it was okay. I do enjoyed it. But a few things bothers me when I was there.
Arrived there nearly 7 since it was packed with people and cars. Everyone was struggling to find a parking spot and we even hit dead road. I wish they'll be more organised next time. During our last few minutes there, I heard that they changed the venue and route at the very last moments and that's why they were so unorganised.
That is not the only thing. Some of them didn't manage to get a t-shirt even though they came a day earlier to pick it up. They were told that all the shirts are not available that they need to order for a new batch. Some of the participants end up running with different shirts and they have to wait for another month to get theirs. It was super disappointing.
Tbh I was quite disappointed with how they organised it on their last event. We even found so many negative comments and complaints on their management. Might be because of the last minute changes. I hate to write something like this but this was what happen. I hope they can improve their management in their next event. One thing for sure, they need to add more staff because from what I observe the numbers are too little that things tend to be out of place some of them were neglected.
I've no ill intention in posting this but just sharing my own experience during the event. It was a good participations and yes there are things that cannot be avoided no matter how good the plan was. Anyway I'm glad I was a part it. Thank you.
Have you guys ever experience something like this? Feel free to share with me in the comment below. I'd love it if you guys can share any good running events with me. Who knows I can be a part of it as well.

Deletetahniah sebab dapat habiskan larian
ReplyDeleteAlhamdulillah. hehe thank you.
DeleteI was going to say it was a fun run but then I read about the terrible management, they really need to improve their system and add more staff for such event.
ReplyDeletei agreed. overall it was okay but maybe just a few part that spoiled it. it's fine, it's a part of learning and experience as well.
Deleteat least a do get a good time with my friend there.
I really want to join fun run! But that was unfortunate for you. Maybe we really have to look the review first, about the organiser stuff.
ReplyDeleteSide notes, your pictures' filter cantikk! I like it
Oh my really? I happy you like it.
Deletetbh i'm still trying to find that one filter that really suits me and my photos.
